ISO - "Love"


Excuses

Explanations

You know better than that

Take a break

I just did

Just another drop

Too many

In the bucket


Why don’t you stop

Why don’t you listen

This is important 

You know where we’ll end up

So what?

I know you don’t want to go there


This would be much easier if I had someone to talk to

You have me

Someone real

Yes I am

Sure, I guess

You know it 

I’m here aren’t I?

I’m always here

No matter where we are

So I thought

So I thought

So you thought

2020 - Crossing the Threshold

    Crossing the threshold. It's the commitment to the cause. A vital part of the Hero's Journey. The hero, ready or not, heads into the unknown to face the danger of their journey head-on.     If my life were the storyline of some grand work of fiction, 2020 would be my threshold. If I were the hero embarking on their journey, this would be the turning point.      Our world is in a state of chaos. Disease decimates the population. Climate change threatens the well being of not just the human race, but the whole planet. Civil unrest and war turn people against each other. Politics and corruption paint the setting of a torn world in its darkest hour.     Among the disarray and mayhem rises a new generation. Too young to make a difference, but old enough to understand what is happening in the world around them. A generation who could not remember a lighter time and thus strived to make one for themselves. People who looked at the world around them and to wanted change it. People

Just a Person Doing People Things.

    Just a person doing people things. That's all any of us really are. We're all like animals in a safari with the internet as our observation deck. Whether I'm the animal or the observation deck is for you to decide. We all view the world in different ways, and I respect that.  At least I can make my observation deck pretty.     I feel that we have certain experiences, lenses if you will, that we look at the world through, some of them rarer than others and others more common than we think. We can never be exactly sure what others see through their lenses, as no two people have the exact same set, but I want to know. I want to know how other people feel, how they think. I want to gain that perspective. And I want to give others my perspective too. Lend them my lenses, whoever "them" ends up being.     We're all unique in our own way. That's human. Yet sometimes that uniqueness is what can make us feel like rejects or outcasts. By understanding each other

The Ferris Wheel - Short Narrative Assignment

            Adrienne turned to me, pointing at a sign close to the front of the line for the ferris wheel. “No single passengers,” she read. “Ha, I guess that means only Rufus can go.” “Well darn,” said Rufus, the second of the two friends accompanying me. “Guess you’ll just have to wallow in your singleness together.” I swatted at Rufus’ shoulder. “Too bad George isn’t here. You’re stuck with us.” Adrienne laughed and took a step forward in the line.  I looked up at the ferris wheel in excitement. I loved ferris wheels, and the Cedar Point ferris wheel was one of the biggest I had ever had the opportunity to ride. It was a must-do attraction on my list of things to do on the eighth-grade field trip.  “Are you excited to ride the ferris wheel? I bet the view is amazing up there,” I said to no one in particular. “Yeah, I freaking love ferris wheels,” said Adrienne. “I wanna take pictures once we’re at the top.” “Well I’ve never been on a ferris wheel,” said Rufus. “So I guess I’m ki
