magenta

Long ago, there was a family. A simple family. They had a child named Benjamin and from the time he was born, he spent his life wondering whether he would be something great, or something meek. Then, after a freak accident at a magnet polarizing plant, he became something else entirely: Magneta.

metro

i want a spontaneous getaway. i want to look outside my window and see the waves of buildings appear before my eyes. i want to see the tunnels cave in, giving a sense of closure to bring me to where my home belongs in suburbia.

the metro is a marvelous place to meet new people. from extravagant to bland to beautiful to strange, it is a place where you could immerse yourself to the culture of your city.

today i took the metro to school. i don’t usually do this, but on the particular day i decided that i was obliged to take the bus. the bus was unusually crowded, partly due to the inclement weather, but that did not stop the many pedestrians walking down the street. i sat away from the general population and as i glanced up, there was a woman who caught my attention. he was small in structure, with an unusual grimace on her face which lighted up the whole bus.

branch

i am a branch flailing when the wind blows just a little too hard. too weak to stand on my own. seasons of beauty, seasons bare.

anchor

“Heave the anchor boys!” He cried into the veil of the mist. An ominous departure, to be certain. Their stay in Newfoundland had been characterized with an unseasonable fog which seemed to swallow up the port.

vines

there she waits: above the vines. i climb to her, calling her name. but wait; no. we must be silent. but how can i be silent when every fiber of my being is screaming for her?

bagel

breakfast at boarding school. bagels and cream cheese. well, at least it’s something i can manage to eat without excessive gagging. maybe today won’t be so bad, after all.

plague

The world is ending. The Plague is upon us. Or is it a Blessing? Do we deserve this? After everything: every sin, every wrong, every single damaging act? How can we right these wrongs?

wheat

i see the fields laid out before my eyes. they stretch on and on until they collide with the endless blue sky. the horizon seems an eternity away but i resolve to walk until i get there. i will press on.

i see the feilds before my eyes as though i were at home. i am lost and abandoned and even something so simple as wheat fields erects such vivid memories and passionate thoughts in my mind. where do i go from here?

boots

It was winter. And, as usual in winter, I was wearing boots. But not the kind of boots that nobody spots. No, I mean the big boots, just like the moon boots. I was really embarrassed when I arrived at school.

covert

I knew it was time to keep this conversation covert. Though I was not the role model of the one you can trust, I had to be very careful. It wasn’t nothing.

also

What is also. It’s just a wird with little meaning. I am a man but also a boy. As I boy I also dream. Dream of something big and also dream of the small things. I also love. I am quite and also very observant of others. Also is a tie it ties one thing to the other. It make two things one. What can I do with also? With also I can combine and contrast.

Also is the word that likes an afterthought to an original idea. Usually inspiration can come from from a statement or question. Also links that idea to a new one. Also, also can be used to include a missing part in a list.

willed

You force yourself to do something. You push with all your might, and it’s hard like rolling a boulder up a hill. But you can do it. You simply have to focus and concentrate. At the end, you’ll be so proud of yourself. You’ll be excited, happy, and thankful it’s over. This can be said for all events in life.

amount

The amount I owed Mr. Jones Gibbons was miniscule, however for Mr. Jones Gibbons it was a lot. One day when I came home to my apartment the stove was on, I noticed that Mr. Gibbons tried to kill me by letting my apartment fill with gas.

stir

She tossed and turned. It was the middle of the night. The whole room was cloaked in darkness. The clock ticked. The sound drove her crazy, something it doesn’t usually do. But because of the blasted heat, every little possible thing bothered her. She got up, leaving the room and creeping down the stairs. She knew she wasn’t getting any sleep, so why not take a walk?

She tossed and turned in the dead of night, unable to sleep. She kept thinking. Thinking about everything. Why was it so difficult? So confusing? Nothing made sense anymore. She got up, slowly, to avoid waking her mom the next room over, slipping on her rope and creeping downstairs.

July

July. That one month of the year where all you wanna do is go swimming. Whether its in the fresh-smelling, seaweed-full saltwater ocean or your own pool just a few twenty or so feet from your back door. You dive or run into the water, hoping and expecting to emerge into a new world, a world hopefully not as HOT. A world without mosquitoes would be nice as well.

That one month of the year where all you wanna do is go swimming. Whether its at the fresh, saltwater beach, or in your own pool in the backyard. You dive under the water, expecting to emerge into a whole different world, a world that’s not as HOT. A world without mosquitoes would be even nicer.

himself

A man who places himself above others does not benefit society. Selfish, self-centered men are borne out of focusing on his self. What a man does for himself will shape the man.

past

The past is a thing that really sin’t there. We think it. We like to think we have the past, usually so we can use it as an excuse for what we do, whether our actions are good or bad. The truth is that we are slowly dying day by day. Right now, you’re clock is ticking. There is not past, only this moment, which will end and enter another moment. Even now, the moments are dying, as I type this word.

under

Under the lake, and around the long cabin with the tinted windows (who the hell knows how they got tinted anyway) was a chest. Mary Tyler had put that chest there a long time ago, after the man who broke her heart had run off with another woman, on the day that she put a gun in her mouth and pulled the trigger.

spent

I’ve spent so much time dealing with my own insecurities that I would love to finally know what it is like to be loved and okay with myself. Being gay is a tough, sometimes cruel experience. I hope we become widely accepted.
