The Coward Across the Street

Unfortunately, based on a true story.

The Coward Across the Street I’m a crime drama junkie. That means I've spent the last decade of my life watching movies and TV shows about guys who lack in terms of reasoning but have a lot of balls. Just like romantic movie junkies, a little part of us assumes we’d have the ability to fit into the craziness of these fantasy worlds. Unlike crime drama junkies, however, romantic movie junkies are often forced to face reali...

I wish I has the words to explainThat every morning I wake up, not sure that I can stand the painI feel like a zombie pretending I am happyHaving the strength for everyone but me I don't know what it is I need But I know it is not this, which makes my heart bleedI have become frozen out of fearAnd come close to drowning myself in tearsWhen did I start caring so little about myself Feel too much put my heart on a shelfI mi...

My mind begins to wanderat the end of each long day;Into the realm of the unknownand the roads along the way; The many choices that I madeas I led my life;I'll always wonder what could have beenif I'd become your wife; The mysteries my decision brought,the things I'll never know;Because the mistake I madethe day I let you go. 

Can I steal away with you into the quiet night? Make love with sweet abandon till dawn's early morning light? Can we hold each other close, forget the world outside?Knowing one unto the other, having nothing left to hide? Can I tell you, darling, that my love for you is true?Will you finally share with me that you love me, too? 

Pscybotics Volume One: Episode 5A - Sommer's Project

The Five teenagers learn more about their nemisis species

Sam was leaning on the tank again, trying to look into the window. The blue liquid was making it hard to tell what was inside, but looking at the dimensions of the tank and the location of the window it wasn’t hard to guess. When he concentrated on where the head should be, he wasn’t shocked to see two eyes staring back at him. “What’s in the tanks?” Sam’s question caught all of their attention. “Because I’m willing to be...

They were in a hurry That is why they left so early The fog was thick She didn't see the truck Only the sound of the horn As it came up behind her It happened so fast But in slow motion too They felt the bump She didn't know what to do Calling out his name She said of her love And the life that they had shared Then smiled and closed her eyes As they continued to fall He could feel something was wrong Had to get to her fas...

I Noticed the Hole Today

A cathartic muse of a lost family member.

I noticed the hole today. It’s been there awhile; I just finally really saw it.It’s really deep! I dropped some rocks but never heard a sound, not even clatter off the sides.It’s pitch black; sort sucks up any light that tries to penetrate. Like a Black Hole. Just a big, black, sucking, empty, with harsh, jagged edges, Hole.It looks like a sink hole, no pushed up rim. No “Hand-Of-God” strike from above, just fell away int...

True Love Conquers All

Confessions of a disordered and unruly mind

Inexorably I can feel myself falling Into the darkness that always lurks, sinister And out of sight, there at the corner of my mind, A place of demons and unnameable horrors, Where my worst nightmares wait, eager to claim my soul. Like a condemned man on the way to the scaffold, I see the leering faces of the mocking crowd Calling on me to save myself, their jeering taunts The accompaniment to my headlong descent Into mad...

The world revolves my angel, and once more The time is coming when the days grow short,When happy thoughts of summer flee away, And all around is desolate and bare. Come fly with me to some exotic shore, Where bathed in golden light, we two can sport,Dancing gaily on the strand all the day, And through the night mount high into the air. O cruel lady, tell me what I've done, What crime that you should treat me so unkind,Wh...

Extinction

Servants or Usurpers?

The ancient gift that God gave man, the awareness of time and distance span.We stand now among a dwindling crowd, our brothers and sisters whom we disavowed.So do we care or even admit, twas only by the gift are we thus fit.Can our species' conscience bear, the dread guilt weight of death we share?Or will we run and hide in shame, fleeing in fear to avoid the blame.Pray that the Master's trust in us be right, ere daybreak...

The Fall

Do you know how it feels to fall in love?

In a magical land far far away, fairy tales make the headlines on a daily basis. Seldom sad endings, mostly happily ever after. Everyone was special if they believed. I wanted to be famous; I wanted them to sing songs and tell tales about me long after my death. But most importantly, I wanted to fall in love.I started my day just like any other day. I read the paper as I had my breakfast. Today's headlines: RAPUNZEL DYES...

Captain Scrotum and the SS Thrust: Chapter 10

Lilly is back, but the Ship needs patching up. Lilly chose Sweet-Cheeks for the job.

Chapter 10. No one can hear you moan in spaceLilly instructed Sweet-Cheeks on how to use the Sealant gun “The sealant hardens to a non-conductive solid substance it will fill the hole and protect the inner shell from and rock collisions.”The full-size O-cylinder was heavy and with the sealant pack also strapped to her back in the ship she could hardly move. She placed the I-watch on so she could talk to Lilly, and set a c...
