    you are a brick wall
    and i can throw myself against you
    and just come away bleeding

    i bounce off you like a brick
    wall
    running my knuckles along you just leaves me bruised and bleeding

    i can’t fit my fingers between your pieces, your interlocking bones. you’re a brick wall.

  5. high on coffee stains
    and clouds made out of trash
    he stares at – –
    and wonders. . .

    should he build. . .?
    but the moment already passed
    taking the weight of thought down stream with it.

  7. Brick, in ways it is a thing we can be made of.

Bricks dating back to the beginning of time and into the future…

  10. Red hard stopping all thoughts from running clearly through my mind. Stone walls enclosing every thought that would clearly form to save me form my own oppression. Brick, cement clogging my world suffocating my insides, waiting for me to crumble down to nothing but a pile of ash. It’s painful to think about it all.

  14. Hard, unyielding and heavy. A solid foundation, a sturdy wall. It can be a help, when you need to lean, or it can be a weapon, that you throw at someone else. They are the best part of a good home. They are the part that lasts.

  15. Her face was like a brick wall. Hard and precise. She knew what she was doing. She had known all along. But it didn’t help at all. She was stilla bitch and things still weren’t going to turn out.

    She was also like a brick wall in another sense. She didn’t listen to a word I had to say. Or anyone else had to say for that matter.

    She wasn’t solid like a brick. She was hollow and uncomplicated. Dull.

  16. red and unforgiving,
    cheery and inviting,
    industrial and cold,

    so few,
    how will one ever be determined?

  17. It was a grey morning just like all other morning when she woke up in her stained bed in that grey apartment building that was just like all the other apartment buildings in the town. This time something was different though, the walls she had cherised, the walls that kept her safe from the rain, had begun to crumble. A single brick had fallen off from the back wall of her room, the only room in her apartment, the one that hosted her bed. The brick was lying in the middle of the floor, and she had not heard of it falling there.

  22. I was had a brick, and I built a house from it. It took a while, but I figured a way out to builid many houses from one brick. First I figutred out how the brick was made, them, made many bricks like the one I found. Before you knew I, I built a town.

  24. Brick walls lie in the view across from me. Brick buildings, brick everything. Will this new brick place accept me? Can I do my work in these bricks, this oven? I hope the brick red is not going to splatter with my blood, with my tears. I hope that red is lucky. Bricks surround my new life. Not a wall but an entryway?

  25. It’s so hard, rough, impossible to mold. Who knows what mysteries this mundane object holds? Certainly not I. One would wonder, is there even a point to this? Yes, it holds us, up keeps us safe, but isn’t that what friends are for?…

  26. We used to call a good friend of mine that before we saw him leave back to Berkley. He was a football player, and somehow ended up in a logic class. I think it was just bad stereotyping. I mean, a football player who likes BSG? Unheard of. Really. I miss Chris a lot. Man I’m depresssed.

  32. You sat there in your chair and all I could see anymore was the red wall in the background, the horrible contrast to your too white face. It’s all fucking gone now, you know. Your legs twisted around each other and I’m not so sure what we were getting at when we said it would be forever.

  38. The brick wall wrapped its strong hands around her. Her shoulders shook and shivered. Parts of the wall began to erode but she had no care for her saftey. Each brick was once a perfect square; now it lay adorn with cracks and dents. People walked by her staring at the little girl. She forced her back into the wall. The brick wall attempted to wrap its strong hands around her.
