displaced, the aberration sways in lullaby’s arms softer, still, cries the lonely child a stained glass replica of his nightmares stand in the windowsill clawing its way in, with lanterns of teeth in rose pedal blood that dress in a skirmish of soft spoken lips he tears off his flesh, as dried leaves in the wind, it flutters its wings on the parchment of sin

I got rid of something today that I’ve been holding onto for a long time, and with it, all the emotions and memories that I attached to it. Actually “it” was many things. I won’t say what they were, but it’s something I’d been hoping to bring myself to do for a long time. And I have no regrets. Actually, I have two of them that I’m keeping, as a reminder...

Anonymous asked: Would you rather be a squirrel or a cake in the shape of a squirrel?
Oops, I made a mistake on that last question. I meant to take the “ness” off of “consciousness.” Silly mistake.

I’ve been in one of those “type as much as you can and then delete everything without thinking” moods lately. I’m struggling not to just stop typing here and delete this. I’ll post it anyway. For bravery. For honor. For the sanctity of human thought. God, shut the fuck up, I’m so fucking annoying. Hah. Well I guess I am sometimes. I wouldn’t really know....

I would like to share a particularly beautiful moment of my life. A vignette if you will. I believe it to be in my last year of high school, on a morning in winter. It was really early, no more than half an hour before I left for school. I was making breakfast, listening to my iPod, and getting ready for the day. I wasn’t tired like I usually am that early in the day. I remember walking...

I find that people often misjudge what goals and dreams are supposed to be. A goal is something you create to guide you, show you where you are now, and where you’re headed. It’s a checkpoint from which you can judge how far you’ve come, not a prison where you’re locked into your desire of who you think you want to be and where you think you want to be.

Journal Prompt #9: Did you ever hold an unpopular...
I don’t know really know. I don’t really concern myself with what’s popular and what’s not popular. Only with what speaks to me and what I can understand, and for the things that don’t, trying to understand them to come to a better understanding of them and of myself. I can’t really say that I have beliefs that are that firm in anything. Everything has multiple...

Journal Prompt #8: Write about moving to another...
I moved from Warrenville, IL, to Sugar Grove, IL a quarter of the way into 8th grade. I can’t say it was easy. I didn’t necessarily have the strongest connection to the area I lived in, other than it was all I knew, and I always figured, in my naive head, that I’d live there forever. You know, when you’re young and you think you’re always going to be the same age, and...

Journal Prompt #7: Why do you think prejudice...
This seemed like a fun one to answer, especially since I’m currently taking a Minorities in Communications class. It’s probably one of my favorite classes of the semester (thus far) because it’s really been making me think very critically about racism and prejudice, and it’s really been a mental obstacle for me, because I don’t know or have all the answers. And even...

I’m almost 14 pages done with the novel I’m writing. And that’s on standard 8.5x11 paper formatting, so for an actual book I’m guessing it’d be a bit longer than that. This has got to be the farthest I’ve ever gotten writing something like this. I also finally have a title for it, but I’m not going to say what it is for awhile, at least until I can see the...

I’m glad I tried doing this not too long ago, but also kind of glad that it didn’t work out for me and that there’s a reason why. Source: http://www.highexistence.com/

I wish that sometimes I stopped trying to distance myself from my past. In a way it’s been very good for me, to push through and grow and learn, but it doesn’t mean I have to leave everything behind. I miss my mom. I miss my puppy. Sometimes even my dad. I mean, I can’t stand being in that house for very long, but I miss feeling that connection of family. Well, a lot of times I...

Anonymous asked: I've been wanting to start doing the whole solo project thing for a while now, and i have ideas but i'm not quite sure how to technically lay them all out and begin to arrange things, so i guess my question is how have you done it, the technical and organisational side of it? I guess what i don't really have is a framework of my own laid out for such endeavours. I need like an...

I’ve been working on a novel for about the past month or so. Of all the novels I’ve tried to write in my past, I feel like this might be the one that I end up completing, that hopefully isn’t half bad. Its working title for now is Dream Machine but I’m sure in time I’ll find a better title. I won’t get too into what it’s about, but I will say that it takes...

I haven’t posted anything in awhile. You know what I’m sick of? Politicians who keep speaking of “traditional family values” and “christian values.” They’re going to “restore America” by “restoring values.” I wish they would take a sociology class or two. If you want to live a life of high value and strong beliefs, please, do so....

Tip #5837563 for how to not make friends and how to get people to hate you: Smack them in the side of the fucking head and run away. If you want someone to fucking hate you and have people in general not want to be around you, do that to someone you don’t know. It’ll work out perfectly, I swear.
