  • April commented on the post, winged 1 month, 4 weeks ago

    Angels floating up into the sky. I guess they do exist, I mean, there she was with a halo and white wings floating up into the sky to who knows where. And there’s a phoenix with bright red plumage. They say the tears have healing powers. He soars in a wide arc and eclipses her face a moment. His wings beat once. I wish I could fly.

    Why is the site no longer that pretty purple color. Blood doesn’t make me think of purple though. Red. Gushing. Wounds. Emotional pain. Car accidents. Spinning out of control on an icy road, he slammed into her passenger door…

    Porter, I don’t know, I think of portly which means kinda stout and fat, or stocky, like George Costanza from Seinfeld. There’s also Port wine. A porter is someone you pay, but I never understood what they did.

    I reached toward the brass doorknob on the bedroom door. There was no sound behind the door. Somehow, I was paranoid that the knob would be hot to the touch, as if there was nothing but flames on the other side.

    Detention. Headaches. The Breakfast Club. Sitting at a desk with nothing to do, your head drops and hits the hard wood laminate, bruising your forehead and waking you up.

  • April commented on the post, seeds 11 months ago

    Seeds of plants growing, reaching toward the sunlight. Big, bright yellow sunflowers with dark faces turning their heads to soak in the sun. Vegetable gardens, snap peas…

  • April commented on the post, keen 11 months ago

    Not particularly keen on being immobilized all summer, in a plastic boot cast and knee brace, watching endless hours of “Say Yes to the Dress”, trapped on the futon in my living room.

    Switching positions, taking dominance, the box spring squeaks, movement, heat, sound. Light switch, on, off, yellow light bulb in that awful shade on the lamp in my childhood room.

  • April commented on the post, grind 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    The daily grind. Three more full days of school, then summer, then surgery. That will be a new grind, but hopefully a shorter one. I better have so much fun in my eight days prior to the operation.

  • April commented on the post, jelly 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    Peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Every day for lunch. For a secong, you might think it’s Nutella or Fluff, but no. Jelly. “Jelly” is also slang online for “jealous”. Rather stupid, but we still use it ironically.

    Emptying her, he pulled back. She whimpered and felt skin on skin. He emptied the glass of water into the sink and refilled it with brandy. Serious drinking problem, that man had.

    Ah, this is kinda like what I want to be when I grow up. Not that I’ll ever grow up. It’s like Peter Pan up in here. Anyway, yeah, I want to be a reporter or a journalist, with my notepad and #2 and microphone and […]

  • April commented on the post, architecture 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    White marble speckled with flacks of back, countertops, the Parthenon. Squares, triagles measuring tapes, protractors. Grand Structures, the city planners, the Syndey Opera House. I want to go to Australia.

    Coffee doesn’t stunt your growth. My older brother started drinking coffee as treatment for his ADD when he was 14. He’s now 26 and 6’9″ tall. Coffee is delicious.
