He takes the amber liquid and lets it fall into his stomach in a large gulp. In his lifetime he has consumed hundereds of theses. but this time was the last time. At 21 Fred was an alcoholic, he just wouldn’t know it until he woke in the hospital the next morning.

The problems began after the break up, not before. The cracks that suddenly became canyons, separating the two. Their friends naturally took sides and loyalties developed. Eventually, it was forgotten that they were both good people.

Others see the crow as a bird of death, of ill luck. But I am one of the lucky ones. The crow is luck to me. When I see it flying or sitting on the side I know that my day is about to be better, or at the very least more interesting. Who knows what that trickster has in store for me.

There are no moves left. Defeat is complete. “Ha!” I say. I pick up my king and gab it into my opponents face. Blood and screams insue. I use the chess board to silence the screams and spread the red translucent beauty onto the walls.

The buildings of today are all sharp corners and vectors that collided in straight lines of glass and steel. The older buildings may have been inefficient and let little light in. But they knew how to create beauty in the carved stone and beautiful stone work. Each home could be a castle, and every town a kingdom.

My partner for life, my better half. They hold onto to me and keep me grounded. They don’t cloud themselves with who I could be, but adore me for who I am.

River Ranter commented on the post, welfare 1 month, 2 weeks ago
The lifting of those below us has sever implications on the economy. It not only decreases debts and raise the quality of life of the impoverished, but it puts the public as a whole responsible for their community. This is a horrible for those individuals who want to be selfish and ignore the state of the world.

I put my feet up on the dashboard. The driver of the taxi gazed at my daring appreciatively. My friends in the back gave each other glances, questioning the hygiene of my bare legs on the public space. I feel sexy and tonight is the time to show it.

He was flipping through the pages of his old note book, and the images started to whirl into his mind, setting off memories of old lovers and lost friends. The music in background added to his sadness, tears started to buildup in his eyes.

It isn’t the pain of the hit to the back of the head that you feel. You experience that the ache and blinding fissure across your skull when you wake. Your head feels double in size, and it is akin to being cracked into a concrete wall repeatedly for several hours.

Being dehydrated is a slight discomfort usual. When you have been waking fo hours in the hot desert of the wastes of Nevada, the only description for that pink slimy organ in your mouth is leathery.

Shifting the piece from spot to spot. Each side trying to get out do the other. The game goes on and on. countering and advances litter the scoreboard, but no on is winning. One steps back and looks at up, and realizes that a tie was never considered.

They called for a speech. the wedding guest quiet in anticipation. The groom stands up, taps the mike. “She wears white, but she is no virgin. He father gives her away, but he never owned her. Don’t you all think that this tradition needs to die? Thanks for the gifts and the money. Enjoy your meal.”

The word “Must” should never be uttered. It works as a confine that prevents true expression and innovation. It is the “Maybe”s that add to the world, not the absolutes.

It destroys and consumes without prejudice. It can level a city and destroy a countryside. But if you keep inside the confines of a stone fireplace, controlling it. Then the force of destruction is tamed to a source of heat. One where the life of your family can be built upon.

Take it from step one. Don’t deviate. Step two has fifteen sub-steps. All need to be followed in perfect order. At step three, there is no room for creativity, follow the rules don’t work in-between the lines. You need to be perfect, you can’t make mistakes, and there is no room to be human.

They always know. To assume what is best for a kid is always a poor decision. Even if a child is about to do something wrong, they know they have to experience it for themselves. They can be informed, but let them try to experience their pain. They will be better for it.

Take a walk. Get out of the class. Enter into the crowd. Get lost in the swarm. Weave through daily mass migration. Blend in. Careful. They be sharks in these waters.
