    Train tracks twisted and turned in my mind. Steel thoughts banged against the walls, others shooting forward, trying to deflect them. Newton’s Cradles clicked and clacked loudly, a clock’s needles fell backward […]

    Glassy bottled beakers are reveling in sunlight from a tilted window nearby. Thick green gels ooze up to the top, bubbly purple spritz spurts from a wavering froth, a sticky white gum bursts with one resounding […]

    The fizzy liquid sloshed into the cool glass cup. The shiny surface of the grape soda swirled around in it, bubbles zooming like magic across the top. The deep indigo color, glittering with silver foam, washed […]

    She flew down, her vibrant blue feathers ruffling in the breeze which warned of storm winds. She looked down and landed on her branch, her home. The twigs twirled in the air, the brown disheveled surface […]

    She sat at the counter, legs swinging under, her skirt falling daintily down over the stool. She held her face in her hands, batting her long, black eyelashes at the waiter in front of her. He winked and slid an […]

    My hands shook like the inside of gelatin, shaking and moving jerkily. I stepped over the twisted tree trunk and slowly climbed the rope ladder. I closed my eyes, groping for the notches in the bark. My mind […]

    The four girls recited their poem. “Blossoms and Bluebells, Peonies and Pansies, Girls of the Garden, tending petals with mirth, Girls of the Garden, sowing the earth.” Each took the other’s hands and nodded heads […]

  • Mimmy commented on the post, emptying 1 year ago

    She was emptying her life. Throwing away her Mary-Jane-wearing friends. Losing her childhood. Taking every ounce of safety out of her mind and finding wild, free, laughter. She was ready, ready to begin a new […]

    She placed the cap on her head. Her blonde ringlets poked out from underneath, and it’s grey shadow hung on her freckles. She smiled and her eyes looked up at the red cap. It wasn’t just any cap. It was her […]

    Just a backpack. Just a sling to carry her books. That’s all she needed for the rest of her night, that’s all she wanted. Her arms grasped the rough pink surface, the straps fell onto her shoulders, and her books […]

    She walked along the grey sidewalk, large black camera swung around her neck, pencil stuck behind her ear. Her hands quivered with anticipation and her mind whirred with ideas for the impending interview.

    The stately brick houses stood towering above me. Creamy white columns stretched to the sky, curtained windows sat shut and still. I walked briskly up the steps, my mind whirring with ideas of the house in front […]
