Out of Commission

My mind is like a well-maintained, oiled, and fully charged machine. It never stops operating even when it's out of commission.

Come,

I invite you to

Analyze me

Embrace the wonder

I will show you the

Snowflake of my soul

Colors of Emotion

The sky is a dull greyish-blue, with hints of pink at the edges where the sun is trying to peek up to my side of the world.

She seems to be a little bittersweet today, like she is remembering something that she no longer has, and she wants it back.

Some would say it is a terrible start to a day, but I think otherwise.

If the sky where bright yellow with joy everyday, I would feel as if I don't belong in this world.

I am not always happy and I like to think that the sky has many different colors of emotion too.

Mistaken Identity

Eve turned staring around the room.

She’d heard the sound of the door creak.

She had thought almost everyone was fast asleep.

A dark figure approached her—

She grabbed her hair brush, ready to swing it at the person lurking in the shadows.

Then she saw a familiar face~

‘‘Ira?’’

She screamed in terror as soon as Ira’s hands stretched to grab her like a pair of tree branches.

The thing that looked like Ira dragged Eve from her room and led her to the mirror.

She twisted her body trying to break herself free from the tight hold, but that didn’t work.

When she tried to scream the branches stretched over her mouth to stop the cry for help.

PRESSURE

‘‘Roses are red-’’

‘‘Violets are blue~’’

He bent down on his knee,

‘‘Will you marry me?’’

‘‘Oui!’’

At last, it was a Yes—

Time to book the wedding venue!

In the Beginning...

Brimstone, what an odd name for a small city residing within the midwestern state of Minnesota. If one were to ask a local why it is named as such they would likely answer that on the hottest summer days and on the coldest winter nights this place feels a little like hell. Sounds a bit overdramatic to any outsider.

Air Fryer

You fry my food without the grease

So crunchy and delicious

I still add a lot of salt

so they won't be suspicious

They won't know the chicken wings

were fried with only air

Who needs that unhealthy grease

a mess I wouldn't dare

I pop food in and turn the dial

and you do what you do

An easy dinner, quick to make

and that's why I love you

Lamb’s Last Lament

Packs of wolves chewed my bones,

Then they gnawed my skull.

Ate my fat after that,

Leaving naught at all.

Didn’t mind those brutal acts

That left me in despair.

What’s bothersome was doing that

Before they said their prayers.

If I should someday fall from the sky

Or hit my a head a little too hard

Or any other event that causes me to die.

I wonder what fate awaits my soul so charred.

If energy can neither be created nor

Destroyed, then where does it go,

The energy that shifts and soars

From the world to me and to and fro

Will my soul open eyes to an afterlife?

Will my light echo through space and

Time like a fallen star felled by some strife?

What rest awaits our souls so burdened?

As you can see this is the best poem

Because it returns to that age old question

Picked at by philosophy, science, and religion.

Yes, indeed, it’s better than the rest of them.

Helpless

Truth lies

heavy on her heart

But still, she lied

Just to make it stop

Things were thrown

Glasses smashed

Knife out,

hatred in

Muddled thoughrs,

Spinning head

Quiet words

of disgust

What is true,

and what is not?

Dark shadows lurking

Threatening

to eat her alive

Tell the truth...

or die.
