Jump, jump, sprint forward, jump back. A barrel rolls at me and i have to time it just right and immediately jump to the next level. DK is going down today. Ive spent every night for the last two weeks trying to beat Donkey Kong. I figured the timing would be easy but the detection area for the barrels is a little tricky. Ok more tricky than i thought it was. Now i get why dad laughed at me when i...

Its a bit pathetic how everyone reacts to the crows, spineless cowards really. We all have them. Some more than others obviously. Who cares if you have a couple more than the next person following you. They don't come in hordes unless you are close to dying. Yet people tend to congregate only with people of a similar count to them.

How pitiful to live such a bigoted life simply due to impending d...

The Oldest

Ok I'm not crazy, but for a while i felt like i was being watched constantly.

There is nothing unique about my house or my neighborhood. It's a 4 bedroom, 2 story plantation style home with big pillars and shutters out front. A beautiful massive magnolia taller than the house sits in the front yard. The rest of the homes on the street are the classic fan faire of a suburban neighborhood built in...

“And once the flowers bloom, we’ll be doomed” i still remember that kooky scientist saying. Well it seemed kooky at the time but he was pretty much right. But as the great Jeff Goldbloom said “life finds away”

some of us survived the mass expulsion of spores that covered the globe, killing nearly all living things. Like all things in nature there are always the outliers.

I am one of those i gue...

Dregs

Trash, so much trash. Mounds the size of tall buildings litter the man made landscape. Centuries of vehicles and appliances; only god knows what else creates this network of waste.

The shadows strike me the most, cast down from Olympus. A man made attempt at heaven to sequester the rich. Hiding from the shame they helped create. They say some of the people are as old as 300 years old.

Sand

It's really hard trying to understand something you don't understand. Searching through sand for an object you don't know. You just know it's somewhere in there.

Every so often you find something and think “this must be it”. You leave the beach, telling yourself you are satisfied with what you found. Yet you go about your day wondering if this is really what I wanted. Your assumed beloved rides ...

“Ok next time i'm paying for drinks, you sneaky gentlemen” Matt punches me on the shoulder.

Grinning back at him. “Don't get used to it princess, it was only a nice bonus. I’m back to ramen in a few weeks.” waving goodbye as i start the half mile walk back to my apartment. Whoever thought engineers were on par with lawyers and doctors can kick rocks for telling me that as a kid. If that were the...

Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Here’s to hoping some breathing technique can calm my nerves. Forcing my jaw to unclench as i continue my deep breathing. I’ve never worked so hard in my life for this opportunity.

“What in the shit box is going on here fingers?”

Closing my eyes and trying to keep my breathing going. Tom is the last person i need right now.

“Oh trying to teleport back to your s...

Oh Mai

Oh Mai. How I can’t wait to see you. My thoughts race as fast as I can run with thoughts of her. Scenarios of our future life blur through the leaves and dappled light of the canopy. Dew from the ferns streaks my calves as I race down the path. Only a short window exists for me to see my goddess of the grove Mai, and today I’m behind schedule. I doubt she’ll be mad but I’ll be mad if I miss a mome...

“Alright class I’m going to break you into pairs to work on this lab. I know you have partners but we are mixing it up just for today” groans immediately escaped the class. Mrs Felts immediately started back up while waving her hands for calm “relax it’s just for today since we have a few people missing and it’s good for you to work with others for a change”. Unfazed by the students protesting she...
