darkroom
in the dark room stood a figure of a man. he did not know who it was but could only make out the shape of the man. he was wearing a hat and a long trench coat. he stood frozen and paralyzed with fear. the figure did not move.

You began as a ghost on the page. I watched the glowing hand of the timer spin by, and you stretched yourself across the page as it went. Your eyes grew darker, the lines on your face slowly filled in. My fingers splashed around in the chemicals waiting for all of you to show up. They changed their mind and reached across for the light. Almost at once, you began to blend together. I left when the last bits of you dissolved back into the paper.

endless
endless by:dana rhijnsburger
endless is the word your mom tells you her love is. endless is the sound of your parents fucking in the next room. But what if endless was your name? thats the problem with me. my name is endless. and thats it. i’m sixteen year-old girl and have to write my life story for english class. But really, Thats it. No magical world. No superpowers. No sexy-ass vampire sweeping me off my feet. I’m seriously just, Here. this story is probably gonna get an f——-. and because I have no wonderfully drastic life. Hell, I don’t even know what I wanna do when I get older. Seriously, the bordem of life is just endless.

drain
I pour every bit of myself into my mouth. That’s the food. Then, when it becomes too much, when even my own thoughts weigh me down to the point where I am sick, comes the finger. It probes, pushes its way into my throat, pulling up all of the emotion. Anger, fear. Lonliness, ugliness. It all washes away, down the white drain. White. The color of puri

I close my eyes, finger down the throat, and I allow everything that has happened to pour from my stomach, down the white porcelain drain. Every bit of disgusting, smelly, yellow anger and sadness spills forth and falls into the spinning water, spinning, spinning like my head down into WHOKNOWSWHERE they go.

edition
You have to look and find the spots in each book where there have been mispelled words. Each one will have been revised several times, and its only when you find the errors that you have hit gold.

perfectly
Every time my hair falls perfectly on my head, my entire day is affected. Either I go all day swiping my bangs into the position they refuse to stay in, or I don’t touch it. And I hope everyone notices how nice I look. And I hope they ignore me when I don’t. I love my hair. When it does what want.

phrase
To be or not to be i phrase people use, they use when they think they are being clever. They use it to sounds as if they love Shakesphere. Sadly I bet they couldnt recite the next line or even say which play the phrase is from

obvious
It is obvious that I must be very bored if I am on Oneword on Christmas day. Such a tragedy, just like my only Christmas present, socks.

boa
Boa is a snake with spots. I’ve seen movies about snakes. Boa sounds just like that thing strippers use. Those furry scarves. Boa is a three letter word. It’s kinda odd, having two vowels on each other. Bow-uh.

immense
an immense elephant has been in the living room for days. not physically, no. it’s the divorce papers sitting between my parents on the coffee table. The manila envelope stuffed with stapled pages, blue arrows next to all the right places to sign. If only it was mutually over, things just not working out between the two. Marriage was stale, not enough sex..except my mother was waiting with a packed suitcase and the mailman outside in his running Ford truck.

duck
ducks are birds. They are small and adorable. I like ducks a lot. They quack. They are super smart. Ducks live in ponds and lakes around the world. Mainly in the united states. They have flippers and beaks. They eat fish and bugs.

average
His appearance was nearly average, but there was a warmth in the eyes. The corners of his mouth gently coaxed his lips into a timid half-smile. I liked the wringing hands. The skin looked soft, like two delicate things quarreling. In servility to his mouth, they gripped tighter. He exhaled his words effortlessly, tenderly. I left the room with a sense of the untenable and with a hope that I could be wrong.

lousy
The weather was lousy today. Everything was rainy and bad. I wanted to go outside but couldn’t because the weather was lousy.

reader
On the table, it was a maze of tiny dots. His fingers navigated them effortlessly, tracing the tips along pathways that were invisible to me. I imagined him suddenly shrunken to the size of the reader, running breathlessly through the mountains of plastic. His eyes, a gentle shade of dull blue, were useful only to me. They betrayed moments of brief discernment as his hands brushed particular spots of the page. They flashed suddenly, and he quickly withdrew his hands. I could tell that he had seen me.

radar
Radar. Radar. Forwards and backwards, the same. Forwards and backwards, but there were still no dots appearing in the grid. Palindromes flooded my mind- shamefully, because you were lost somewhere in the dark waters. With every fruitless blink of the screen, you grew farther and farther away. Visions of racecars at noon. You were probably gone by then.

upstairs
upstairs I heard them banging away, hammers I mean. You know, like the cats that jump off of bureau’s and startle the hell out of you, like the hot summer days when your sweat drips like a burden off of your brow onto the floor and only the one you love will get so close that you kill eachother in the stifling embrace.

seconds
I really wish I had more seconds that would lead to minutes, that would lead to hours. I wish I made better use of seconds in my days. I imagine they would appear like rabbits unbidden the moment i felt I didn’t need them any longer.

probable
Probability. It ruins lives. Those men who take their life savings to Las Vegas? They spend it on probability. It is probable that they may win back twice that savings in cash. It is also probable that he will lose every penny, and come back to his wife, who will soon become his ex-wife. Probability, it ruins lives.

mission
I’m on a mission. It is of utmost importance. I am trying to save the world through a press of a button. Click! Ten grains of rice is added. Click! My vocabulary has just become a little bit more broad. Click! A child is saved from starvation. Click! I’m saving the world through freerice.com =]

escape
Jen shuts out the outside world with Eminem’s lyrics. Charlie’s sorrows are drowned in cheap liquor. Marian’s pain spills out with every cut. Tyler only has eyes for the little girl smiling up at him, his daughter. Jordan pours her heart out on the pages of her journal. Marlo’s anger is soothed with every strum of his guitar. They all want to escape.

cross
Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Why did the orphan cross the road? To find his parents. (What parents?) Why did the rooster cross the road? To prove he isn’t a chicken. What do you call a chicken that crosses the road without looking both ways? Dead. What do you call a person who actually spent time to read all of this? Bored.

fences
Fences are only a small obstacle on my mission. I have warded off robbers and thieves, bears and mountain lions, electric cells and laser security. Fences are the smallest of my worries, or so I thought. I had no clue what was on the other side.

none
None of it matters. The fact that I am hurting the people I love, that I am hurting myself in the process- it doesn’t matter. Who cares if I just killed a person or two to get what I want? It’s illegal, so what? None of it matters. Heroine is all that matters.
