tales

Dead men tell no tales. Words to live by in the pirate community; or die by, your choice. However where do the tales we have been told come from if all the authors have come to an unfortunate end because of their loose lips?

stalled

Stalled. My life. One could say that I have done nothing since uni. One would be right. My entire life has stalled. Professionally I am no where. Nothing, No where. The one plus in my life is my partner whom i love with my entire heart. i dont want to stall her..

end

I’m sick of these words as starting things. I’m sick of the elusive ones, the vague ones, meant to set you off on endless poetic rants about hearts and pulsing. I want words that actually are set on the earth. ‘postman’ ‘hamper’ ‘cheeseburger’ ‘door’. The end

master

She put the glass down on the table, and she knew that she’d leave a watermark but didn’t care- absently tracing the rim of the fragile cup with her finger, ringing too highly for her ears. No one in the class had mastered the trick of speaking in turn yet, but none of them could even care. She felt her shoulders rise, heaving above her neck, as she collapsed.

promise

I promise that somewhere the sound of your elbow against my shoulder in buried deep within me

– no-one will forget you even though you’re still here–

and I’ll miss you over break I’ll miss the gap in your teeth

must

Don’t think about the conceptual musts, just think about the Top Tens, that’s it, just the Top Tens. The boss man, the managers, the GMs, the AGMs, don’t listen to them, keep a straight face, a straight eye, both of ‘em, and just think about numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 and use your oxford commas when writing

…I know it sounds crazy, little green men landing at Hickory Creek Marina, but it’s the truth.

shows

shows have influenced my life in so many ways, my favorite one, how i met your mother has made me into a hopeless romantic and wanting to make things work. i can only hope for so much without hoping for nothing at all. or a show such as the amazing race which has made me want to travel the world with another person and see what the world is truly like. i think that would be an amazing experience. not only that but i am finding out as im typing this that im good about writing about nothing. maybe thats something i should look into doing. just kidding i hate writing with a firey buring passion. i was just bored.

stir

the spoon is gentle wood and it seems to meld into the soft, vast expanse of your forearm like it’s a part of it like you’re a tree branching out but then I’m a leaf, I’m a shot-down, turned-around, twisted and broken sapling

let me stir the cake mixture, let’s continue skipping school.

Like stirring coffee. Or tea. Or trouble. Causing problems that don’t need to be there, dipping that spoon in that soft, settled mess and ruffling it, forcing it to move and to rupture, pushing it round in that circular motion until it is active and writhing. Back to the tea. Put that spoon down.

methods

So, we have scheduled a meeting today to discuss the methods used out in the field. Whenever we set about working to dispatch our targeted goals in the most respectable manner possible, always consider the needs of the company. Never use high-explosive rounds, avoid putting holes in the immediate bodies of civilians, and also use caution.

object

an object is a solid mass which can be touched, picked up and lobbed at peoples faces for comical amusement. There are many objects in the world, tons of hundreds of thousands of them, which includes humans, toilets and bottles of Moutain Dew. I enjoy these three because I can

employees

They have lost faces, turned pastel and putrid, tired and puckered and lined and and and there’s nothing left for us here.

But a dodgy overpriced soggy sandwich.

Someone help me help me spell help me find a job help breathing.

measured

I measured out my words, that which I never did all that I didn’t say.

In between measured breaths I collected it all up like money tinkling into a tips jar

words fell the ruler tapped the table, struck my knuckles red lines grew

society

we’re not ants although we are ants although we milk cows

and if i was a girl ant and you were a girl ant and we were at ant school and i loved you with all my tiny ant blood it’d probably be the same scenario

but isn’t the only girl the queen? and isn’t the only queen a bee? and don’t we lose our blood once per. month? etcetera?

misty

Misty reminds me of my childhood. I used to wake up and watch Pokemon at 6:30 am before school everyday, and Misty was the name of a main character on the show. I had such a lust for life then. I want to get that back.

refuse

I refuse to let them step on me but yet I can’t because i don’t fear what they’ll say or if they’ll leave i fear that i’ll hurt again I’m scared of this ever lasting lie that says you’ll never leave I refuse to believe that everything you say is real.

carbon

Dioxide. The poison surrounds us. But yet a necesary evil.

statement

“Trying to make a statement?” he asked as his 15-year-old daughter entered the room clad in all black, a Misfits t-shirt, heavy makeup that paled her complexion, studded dog collar, and long mousy-brown hair hanging in such a way as to cover half her face.

“Whatever, Dad. You don’t get it,” she snarked full of contempt for the man who obviously never knew what it was like to challenge conventionality.

He did get it, though. And as he remembered 30 years ago he was having the same conversation with his father who often remarked he needed to cut that shaggy hair, he smiled to himself, taking solace in the fact that someday in the future she too will be seen as an agent of the establishment in her own child’s eyes.

gum

smack. Smack. SMACK. He’d had enough. He calmly rose from his desk, exited his cubicle, entered his neighbors, lifted his hand, and did what everyone else in the office has dreamed about since Mr. Loud Gum Chewer joined the team – delivered a hard and fast open-handed smack of his own to the back of the offender’s head. It will surely mean a meeting with HR, but as he sat back down in his ergonomically adjusted office chair he knew it was worth it.

holder

One Word: it means not two or three but one. Only one word to describe something; great, funny, weird, anything!
