Impossibilities. It's impossible to be idle. Impossible to not try. Impossible not to scream. For more.

Mystified
Five people had already been taken. A few neighbors, three kids from the nearby school. It was a vastly bright bullet from the sky. It pierced through the clouds like a whole punched through paper. From space, and spiking its ways around the person, it punctured the grassy hill and sliced miles down. It seemed …
Sluggish, Stale, a bucket of Water
Stagnant. That's the feeling. When everything boils over--when the time comes to find those hidden feelings buried under the mud--there's a familiar feeling. And it's not stagnation. There's a sense of rebirth. And, a sense of hope. A different type of hope. One more akin to a passion to continue. A fight to push forward …
Social Anxiety
"Wait, wait, wait!" Reese yelled. He needlessly waved, but managed to holster his weapon on his hip. He had a moment of panic when the movement caused the deranged man to flinch.It was a reaction. Both knew, yet the realizations didn't stop the actions. Not in the situation of a bank robbery, with hostages, and …

A few items tipped off the dresser, one smashing to pieces on the floor. The bed's posts dragged against the wood, offset from the …

Birthstone
Every time Derrick saw his mother's grave, he got that uncomfortable twist. It yanked at the back of his throat. Every flower replaced was a pint of blood. When the picture fell, it shattered more than just a frame. The key chain rusted to pieces and stained the top of the stone that held her …
Insight
There are quite a few questions, a platter of quirks and plagues, that worm through my brain. But, I feel I am learning. I feel a gain in knowledge. An increase in folds. Because I'm thinking. Over and over and over and over. Pushing and trying, over and over. When my eyes close, I only …
