scarf
A scarf is something I don’t wear anymore. They used to be called babooshkas when I was a kid!

twig
The twif seamed to cling to my wool jacket with the tenacity of a bulldog holding onto a bone. Pick away as I may at the thing, it wouldn’t come undone. I wore it like a medal all day. The things left undone.

soothe
soothing is something I’ve always associated with water, but what doe the word really mean? what makes water calming why does our body relax around it? as a member of the hurricane Katrina survival group i know first hand how harmful water can be, so why do i still take long showers to calm myself down?

sentence
sentences how do words form them how did they come to be. why do they matter so much, in school. as children we are taught to use complete sentences make it neat and tidy. life isn’t neat and tidy so why do we need sentences.

union
union. I just went to a wedding so I’m thinking the union of 2 people, that which is supposed to be immortal but ends up being cheap and useless.

sugar
“Come here, Sugar, it’s alright.” My grandmother said, holding her arms out. Her hug was so warm, so comforting, I nearly forgot why I had been crying to begin with.

oven
I remember those hot summer days. Mom was gone by then, and Dad tried so hard to fill her shoes. The kitchen would smell of cookies or pie. Unfortunately, it wasn’t long before it smelled of smoke.

amber
Two giant eyes. They look at me, begging.
“Alright, Amber. I’ll give you a piggy back ride, but just a quick one.”
My little cousin had her ways of working me.

spotlight
Dont think, just go, expell yourself in your heart. Dont let the worlds horrible opinions shake you, you are your own light. One bright move and you are done. :)

pregnant
This was the final straw. If that man did not get me my hot wings and ice cream in the next five minutes, he can just forget this whole thing.

chase
I followed you the entire time, even though you tried to run. I followed you to your new job. I followed you when you left town I followed you out of state. I will keep following you, chasing you down. You cannot escape from me.

clip
I want to be free. I want to fly. But I am just a caged bird with clipped wings.

shoes
I like shoes, all kinds of shoes. Even though I like a variety of them, I wear shoes that I have from back in the 7th grade. My mom’s been trying to get me to throw them out. They’re ripped and torn, and have holes and are completely falling apart at the seams. They used to be black, people ask me if they’re green or blue. Haha, so what does that say about them? I love them nonetheless.

My toe is blistered, but only the one. My awkward left pinky toe has never fit into shoes right. I feel like the ugly stepsister, struggling to get the show on, to be as perfect as Cinderella. I know it is odd, but it is one of those things.
