Early in the morning

She does not wake

She sleeps past sunrise

Past alarms

Past lights and shakes

She remains asleep

Around nine in the morning

She arises out of bed

Full of existential dresd

She makes herself breakfast

And scrolls on her phone

Dreading doing work

That does nothing but drone

She gets work done

And maybe draws

Or something else

Probably doesn’t eat lunch

Though that doesn’t s...

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...

The night sky is clear

There’s no fear

Just a sense of calm

The smell is strong

Of nighttime jasmine

Looking down the chasm

To measure the depth

And the rest of the experiment

Is left to the merriment

Of the other scientists...

Day 3

Being raised Baptist like a whole lotta people from the south makes me more wary of things up- down here? I don’t know and it doesn’t seem like I’ll figure this crap out anytime soon.

There are o...

Check In NO. 1

The specimen seems to be in a state of paralysis, this is most likely because of the frozen state it was put in while in transit to the new facility. We received it 10/20/20XX. We will keep monitoring it.

Check In NO. 4

Since the 20th the specimen has been active, watching it has been very eye opening on how these creatures behave.

Check In NO. 10

-Do not try this at home, it could involve your life being ruined

Notes:

This creature seems to live in the dark and is made of shadows

It will take all essence of light away and turn it to shadow

It makes crying noises and whimpers late at night

I tested its strength but it just turned everything to shade

When my partner was studying, there was a flash of light, and then she was gone

It seems to...

It’s the perfect flower...
