A Trip Like No Other

The year is sometime in the distant past and our setting is a quiet suburban town. The crime rates are low and the resident satisfaction is high. All the children know each other and families sleep with their doors unlocked. If you come at just the right time, you will likely see a few piesContinue reading “A Trip Like No Other”

The Space Between

your lips on the soles on of my feet the dissolving of a border a boundary a degree of separation removed   we danced until sunrise the soft carpet unfurling to catch our toes velvet dresses licked knees your pants hugged your thighs   you scrambled eggs the smell made me throw up i haveContinue reading “The Space Between”

A widening gap

Bandaids and stitches and chewed wads of bubble gum but nothing was enough to pull together the gap that stretched between us.   I remember the first time I knew it wouldn’t last, and my aggressive optimism immediately following.   I believed that if I loved you enough, hung onto every word as if itContinue reading “A widening gap”

Self Care

This is something that everyone struggles with and in today’s modern age of constant comparison, it can become almost too heavy a weight to carry. This past year was really eye-opening and showed me that this is something I need to make more of an active effort to make time for. It can be easy toContinue reading “Self Care”

Raymond Carver

Raymond Carver has a unique ability to make you care, deeply, about the smallest glimpses into someone’s life. It could be the moment that a husband pushes his wife through a window or just three couples at a dinner party discussing what it really means to love someone – you will become invested. His shortContinue reading “Raymond Carver”

Friendship

Every morning when I wake up to the sounds of my best friends down the hall, I feel like it’s a dream that I never want to wake up from. This past year was the first time in my life where I truly feel like I’ve found my people. It’s not something I often talkContinue reading “Friendship”

The Heaviest Gallon

As I sit in my half-packed bedroom smoke leaks out my mouth as the warm liquid pushes its way inside. My first drink in four years and my first smoke in double that.   “Doris, what’s the big deal? I want to get fat free milk.” This was the moment where everything collided and forContinue reading “The Heaviest Gallon”

Stuff to do in the Summer

The air has gotten markedly warmer, the flowers have bloomed and most people have ventured out of their winter hibernation. With the warm months already upon us and even warmer ones quickly approaching, I thought it seemed like a good time to share some of my favorite activities for the summer. Beach Being from SanContinue reading “Stuff to do in the Summer”

Something Off

Clammy hands claw at the hooded figure that drags the night-gowned woman across the damp grass. Muffled screams for help are quickly silenced by the hooded man’s sudden pressing of a small blade against the woman’s cheek. “You’re going to want to keep that pretty mouth shut, sweetheart. I don’t think Steven would appreciate gettingContinue reading “Something Off”
