the eyes glazed over
several audible groans
a head drops onto the desk, heavily, not noisily
“not a soppy book, please”

she kept us all going, pushing us ever, inexorably onwards
never running out of puff, but still, we were made to hear the gears creak, the pistons whine
at times we resented her

The engines roar was heard over the crowds’s excited chatter, a true feat of power. In her seat at the back of the stadium, Elena could only shudder. She had attended because… because it was what one did and one […]

“Lets do this, or at least get it over with,” she said.
“Always the pragmatist, the engine of this workparty driving us forward, as usual,” he said. “At what point, where would you stop and say it is enough? We […] -

The powers he had acquired were quickly becoming too much for him to contain. His curiosity lead him to hone in on it and put everything else aside. He was now able to simply destroy anything as if they were mere […]

In a world of my own 2 days, 10 hours agoIn a world of my own, there would be a strong police/military presence on the streets to curb any thoughts of crime. International trade would be through a Favor/Acknowledgement System. Sickness and death would be a life choice rather than a misfortune, and government funding would be into terraforming, underwater habitat building, and space…[Read more]

Hangman, we played double-dutch with a hand grenade. Behind the church, hiding place. Apathetic to the devil’s face.

There’s a loud humming.
Ignore the daily crackle of conformity.
Static split-screen.
All we do is talk.
Disregard. -

He looked at the city with disregard. That was his old life. His past self. Things were going to change dramatically. Things had to get better. That was the plan, right?

Meredyth commented on the post, luggage 5 days, 2 hours ago
Dressed with luggage at my feet standing outside felt so good I think I would still be there if it wasn’t for the cat watching me. Something about cats disturbs me, they exude an aura of feral pursuit even when […]

“You have never been an outgoing person, and because of that, in the relationship stakes, you have not had a fair crack at the whip,” she said.

Meredyth commented on the post, shorthand 1 week ago
Is it fine to be recognised and praised my words? Accepting and believing flattery is shorthand for you becoming their slave. It leaves you waiting for them to recognise the next backflip, the next spontaneous […]

Mairead commented on the post, shorthand 1 week, 1 day ago
The shorthand of the matter was that I was dead. The longhand was that I was not QUITE dead. It all got a bit metaphysical around the time my head fell off, but I’ll put it as simply as I can. Things went awry and […]

I could be nominated for the world’s biggest coward. I only know that I would never get anywhere if I didn’t act. Yet the opportunity slipped by and I remained there, crouching, afraid, unsure, guilty. I was […]

One day at a time. Having balance in life is important and managing this by standing upright and moving forward wherever possible demonstrates actual balance. With my low expectations, this is success.

I’m feeling an overwhelming sense of serenity right now. Sure, I’ve got a lot of things to do. But they’ll get done. My transcripts, the show, prom, graduation. Eventually, all things come to a close.
And now a new life begins. -
Karsen Meredith commented on the post, separate 1 week, 6 days ago
I’m not sure why more marriages don’t end in simple separation. That delicate balance has very obviously ruptured. Why are you still going at it? Trying is simply making things worse. It’s time to go your separate […]
