  2. don’t tilt the candy machine for a freebe; it’s stealing. it may seem like a victimless crime, but these everyday little cheats chip away at our impulse and ability to live honestly, and they have other consequences you can’t predict. (The guy who stocks the machine doesn’t get it for free. See?)

  3. He said it. then it was as if the world tilted on its edge. I asked myself, “how can anything ever be the same now.’ what led to this. i looked back into all the crevices of my mind to see what had caused this.

  4. we have to get it straight.
    we can’t just walk the line.
    Not when it zigs.
    And zags.
    And whurls about.
    Bumpers and all.
    We must tilt.
    And tilt.
    Until the siren alerts
    the room
    that we are nothing
    but
    cheaters.

  7. Most of the time, when I find myself faced with a new challenge, I face it and run – full tilt. I’m not even sure what the phrase ‘full tilt’ really means, but I know that it implies being all-out enthused, and that’s how I face life.

  9. The leaning tower of Piza tilts at an usua angle. Drunk people tilt or sway when they walk. That flag is tilting at a slight angle. The word tilt means that an object is not upright, but is leaning slightly.

  11. There was a garbage dump behind my neighborhood as a kid and one time me and Maddy were playing in there when we shouldn’t have been and I climbed up onto this old metal sheeting that was balanced on a broken refrigerator. It tilted and I fell and scraped my knee real bad and had to lie to my mom about it later that day.

  17. Push it, slowly, very slighty. Push it till it tilts. Pour it, slowly, very cautiously. Pour it till it’s full. Tip it, solwly, very gently. Tip it till it empties.

  18. He moved his head back, leaning further backwards over the edge. High above him he could just see a few blonde locks on the edge of her balcony. ‘Look down’, ‘Look down and see me here, exisiting’. He leaned back a bit further, just a bit further to catch sight of her face. Between the locks of hair he spotted the red of her lips just a moment before he felt the railing move away from under him and realised he was going to fall.

  21. “Wahoo!!” The roller coaster careened along full tilt and James loved every second of it. “Slow down,” the doctors had all advised. “No excitement. It is ill-advised for your cardiomyopathy and we want to extend your life as long as possible, now don’t we?” “Yes,” he had nodded his head in seeming agreement and then immediately headed toward Cedar Point. The world sped by him and his heart felt full to bursting. Now, this was living.

  23. and the windmills keep coming with the storms behind. Over and over. The spin keeps. It’s hard to imagine a world without them. Spinning. Over and over. And I try to watch them with my head turned to the side.

  24. Full tilt. All the way. One hundred percent above ground, daylight, nightlight, everything in between. Every wonder, every breathe, every second. Go. Go. Go out. Go on.

  25. Pin ball.
    Whack.

  26. His hat was turned to one side. It was crooked purposely so he looked cool. He knew he wasn’t, and so did the guys down the street. Jack tried to swagger as he walked, wanting to be even more impressive to the young men he was trying to impress.

  27. My world is on its side, falling but stable. I like to be on the edge. I like the feeling of not knowing when I’d hit the ground.

  28. i can only imagine what the next planet will look like. we passed one last month that was huge and multicolored. there was a band of gas surrounding it that when looked at through the blue sun’s glare made the orb seem to tilt to one side as it gracefully flew by in it’s orbit to nowhere.

  29. Tilting. It leaned over the side precariously, teetering and twirling. She held her breath. It hurt to think: it hurt to watch. The vase was slowing, but that didn’t mean much. It was at the end.

  31. Off balance.

  32. I walked along the deserted road, looking all around me. Where does it lead? Where am I going? Who will I be when I get there? The earth tilted on it’s axis as I came to a crossroads. Confused, I simply stood in silence and listened to the wind.

  33. It was tilted. The picture frame hanging on the wall. I’d tried to straighten it a million times, but it never really took.

    Funny really… The way you think about things at a time like this. It’s so… Tilted. Maybe that’s the way it should be. But I come home every night looking at a crooked pi

  35. “tilt!”

    The word flashed up and the pinball machine blocked as the score ran backwards to zero.

  38. unstable, unbalanced and uncertain, my world is tilting at the moment, rocking and shuddering like a cradle in the canopy of a rainforest, bending with the wind, swaying in the heart of a storm that threatens to destroy every splinter of wood, every shard and remnant of material that ive collected to build it. all of my life, no longer valuable. all my efforts, naught. redundant, and gone.

  39. Holy damn, the tilt of my doors of perception somehow seemed to have slammed shut. I must have performed one of the operations of my personal subconscious without the proper means of retaliations.

    Bligh
  40. sometimes i wonder if the world is really tilted at all, if it’s hanging on it’s axis at the right angle, if anything. i really don’t know science, though. but i do know that your hat is at a jaunty angle.
