  4. He wasn’t sure how he was going to make a go of it. The idea was sound, but the overhead was killing him. They were wrong. You need more than a better mouse trap. You need cheap labour and rent and promo.

  5. The clouds overhead grumbled and muttered amongst themselves as soon as they learnt little Billy’s imagination had replaced them with cotton wool.

  6. Blue skies overhead, birds, wires. There are many things overhead. Enough to make one feel claustrophobic if it weren’t for the scale. The stars overhead are so very far away. Being part of that makes me feel important, not insignificant. How about you?

  12. I heard about the overhead, making change hard. The company had years of dead weight and dead wood littering it.

  18. So überdrüber, so unnötig kapuziert; was ziert dich, Schlangenauge? Mir schwebt der Kopf und ich trage ihn auf Händen, auf Füßen gehst du, rote A N N A, aber all dies, all das Rote gehört beiläufig in die kalte Glut…

  19. The sky was bright overhead. It was a blinding white, the clouds so white it hurt to look up at them. A cool wind lifted the leaves every once in a while but it was quiet- in a comforting way.

    for my new life to begin

  21. overhead projectors so out of date, gathering dust in the corners. overhead is the sky, the clouds, the birds, and expanses of stars and black and night. so many undiscoveries that we can only wonder about. all is overhead.

  22. He overheard the words floating overhead, iridescent speech bubble popping gossip in his ears, reflective but filmy and distorted.

  23. I lie in my bed, overhead a mobile of seagulls dips and dives into my dreams. I wish I was one of them, because from below I feel so tired of nighttime, of my endless dreams. To observe something special would be so much better than living it.

    Eveline
  24. The concepts of life are so often over our heads. This idea we manifest that we are inherently flawed and sinful beings sickens me. There is a God overhead that loves us immensely, we are each special and perfect droplets of Love.

  25. I see the lights overhead blinking in the distance, crackling sounds of electricity pulsing through the ancient wires.

  27. I see them there – do they see me? How can they not as they loom in the dimming sky. They are so powerful and mighty and yet I am so small and insignificant. You created them. And you Lord over them. and I thank you for them.

  28. clouds overhead meant rain, maybe a sprinkle, maybe a full-blown storm. Maybe hail would come with it? maybe lightning? I love watching the drops hit the ground and moisturize the earth’s skin just as we humans do with lotion.

  29. Overheadprojektoren waren damals eine feine Angelegenheit. Für die Lehrer. Sie legten ihr Folien auf. Selbstgemalte oder seltener bedruckte. Heimeliges Lichtviereck auf der Wand des Chemieraums. Ich konnte mich gut im Halbdunkel verstecken.

  30. Overhead is a picture of you, fragmented by time and ennui and tainted with nostalgia. I still love you.

    Nathalie (spacedlaw-spacedlawyer)
  31. Rushing over head sirens sounded, and i looked down at my feet. How funny it was that were my laces were untied and that I was more worried about tripping over and dying, then the bombs, overhead.

    Angelique
  32. Overhead compartments are for the storing of luggage only! They are not for storing unwanted children, nagging wives, useless husbands, obnoxious teenagers, your mother-in law, your hateful, unloving father, or for smuggled alcohol, cigars, cigarettes, or drugs. Thank you and have a nice flight.

  33. As the crowd pushed against me, tossing me like a merciless wave on rocky shores (and me with no shoes, the genius), beating me over with sweat, beer and sex drives with no where to go, I looked overhead, wishing, wishing that the vents overhead, the pipes, the metal, the steel enforcements, would come crashing down on all of them, all of us, and wash us away into oblivion, down the dark the sank alleyways of the city, forever forgotten and never found.

  34. The overhead projector was dusty. When I flipped on the switch the display was yellowed. Adjusting the focus didn’t help. The hot dust floated throughout the room carrying an unpleasant odor. I turned off the switch and looked at the graffiti-ridden desks. I sighed and muttered to myself, “Welcome back to school.”

  35. Overhead. Like that time when we were born into a cataclysm of violence, sex and death. And then, just when we actually understood it was pure sweet life we were already way Overhead.

  36. One word is love. It is soooo hard to do sometimes. When my hubby gets cranky, I have such a hard time loving him. I want so to not have strive in my house.

  37. Overhead the overdead , the corpse layed still on the motorway. The murderous pig stood behind him, blood dripping, his parents weeping knowing tonight they lost a son and gained another perspective on the son they used to love

  38. The overhead lights come on. I’m frozen in place on stage, head bowed, eyes half-closed. Adrenaline pulses through me, but I’m not afraid. I channel it, use the emotion to create something beautiful. The audience waits, breath held. This is my time, my arena, my stage. I begin to dance.

  39. White, pale, bleak. It was so hard to stare at this screen, it was nearly like staring into the very face of the sun – he couldn’t help but wonder if he would become blind after staring at it for a very long time. It was like sitting in a sun-scorched desert, only it was freezing in this classroom, and the floor turned his feet to hardened stone – a blinded statue.

  40. He stared straight forward at the bleak, whiteness of that screen in which he was supposed to be thinking, then writing. This class was one of the most boring he had never encountered in his twelve years of schooling, and the blaring paleness of the overhead did not help him to think.
