My feet follow each other silently. A race to see which one can pass the other more swiftly, even though when I stand still they will reach the same destination. My top row of teeth overshadow my bottom, while at that same time the bottom claws at the top resiliently. My nose is first to find out about certain things, and this make my eyes and mouth jealous. Competition is food for the human spiri...

Nothing is as horrid as Alzheimer's disease. I wonder who he must have been, and what wrong must he have committed to get such a horrible thing named after him. I sat to myself quietly in the corner of the hospital waiting room. The sound of tears and empty promises filled my ears. No one here knew what really was going on, but they still managed to say that she'll get better, or that it was just ...

What does it mean for one to be of no return?

She sips the soup at a rhythmic pace

Her lips an alluring red

Ever so distant

Ever so close

At recess I am pulled for another evaluation'

But I can't help but think of her

Ever so perfect

Ever so tragically broken

By time we get back to our rooms

I devise my own little plan

Ever so romantic

Ever so obscenely grotesque

I steal the key from the guar...

I feel an inexplicable desire to burn things.

Sometimes myself.

To see things be mauled, and in disorder.

January 28

I celebrate my brother's birthday with his family. We go to the restaurant down the street where they serve a 10-piece wings combo for only twelve dollars and change. It's the best deal you'll get nowadays, living in the city. The price of things has gone up drastically since I was...

Never Enough

O how there is never enough

My couch can be bigger

My TV can be wider

My home can be bigger

My soul can never be filled

Even with the water glass overflowing

It is still empty

Having too much water

Akin to having none at all

If it means you can never drink

(Hell)

Opportunities lie everywhere

As the closest thing to fortune is misfortune

The closest thing to good memories is bad mem...

The 8th deadly sin would come to light later than the rest. After seeing how this world turned out, The God above us or maybe even our own pitiful selves would crown it and give it some meaning. Then, it would sweep the earth like his seven brothers had already. Assuming that sins were male. They could have red hair, or maybe even blonde. Their eyes would be blue or a plain hazel, and their noses ...

I paint the hall red

As the flickering lights turn on and off

In my hands a limp body

Silence broken only by his simple cough

Roses begin to seep out his mouth

His eyes a loud ruby garden

Skin begins to lose its luster

When compared to this worldly torment

My hands tremble

As I slowly begin to unbutton his clothes

In my hand a saw

Soon in my hand a bloody nose

A simple collection

Of body parts ...

Silence

The kids sit in the classroom

is

The fire alarm goes off

as

The bankers have finished their lunch break

probable

The power goes off before they can get back to work

as

Due to human's conflicting nature

peace

Silence is as probable as peace

...

Take away our weapons

We'll go to war with our hands

Take away our hands

We'll go to war with our minds

Take away our minds

We'll go to war with our words

Words

A war filled with them would be the most dangerous

More decisive than the mind

More dangerous than nukes

Truth

Can be the sniper

It will start this war

It will end this war

Lies

Can be the nuke

As when one lies it is never just one person...

The woods at night were ideal. Along with the fire we had started I couldn't think of anything else that needed to be done at the moment, besides putting it out.

"I'll go first." Braeden said before taking off his shirt and pants, then tossing them in the fire.

There were four of us. Me, Ryan, Braeden, and Terrence. The process wasn't long; we had gone over this before we committed the crime of co...
