Married Once

I was amazed when I learned that my Aunt Judy had been married to someone before Uncle Tom, forty years ago. Judy was taking care of some business at the Social Security Administration office in downtown Seattle. A man was staring at her. She got nervous. She panicked when he walked up to her. "Excuse me, I think we were married once," he said. She looked at his face for a long time. ...Read On

Sadha's Beautiful Home (Part Two)

Welcome to the Loony Show....

Chow line, all loonies single file, white-smocked orderlies with beefy arms crossed over barrel chests observed from their four corner posts. Would they have been knights in past lives? Wearing once shiny armor that bore dings from battles, burnished black by fire watching great estates for their liege. Would they be conducting dirty deeds with ladies-in-waiting in straw-strewn paddocks...Read On

One And Only

Us

If I could curl into your arms, and stroke your chest hairs, I'd be a happy girl. If I could feel your arms wrapped around me, as you caress my back, I’d be a happy girl. If I could feel your lips on mine, kissing me tenderly, I’d be a happy girl. How I long to be wrapped in your arms, it seems like forever. How I long to feel your arms wrapped around me, it seems like forever. How...Read On

Also Known As

True experiences from using my alias

Using a nom de cinema or nom de plume can sometimes be a real pain in the butt. I once did a Halloween appearance at a large Girl Scout party, and they paid me with a check made out to Count Dracula. Try cashing that check and not have the bank manager and teller give you a strange look. Thankfully they allowed me to endorse it and it was deposited into my account. I did not start...Read On

Diary of L'hopital

An endless pulse proves I'm alive Submerged in the din of the screams Everything muffled,  Merging and feeding the feelings Tomorrow I won't forget And I know who's to blame Beneath lies a you that you don't know yet Feeling so unnatural, all the chemicals Sick, so sick of all the happy faces Tubes for this Tubes for that Even tubes for my piss! The stethoscope is chasing round the pain...Read On

Sleepless in The UK

Alone

Sleepless in the UK. Thoughts in and out my head The "other side" is empty. No lover in my bed. The duvet is all rumpled. Like a stormy sea. No one here to cuddle. Sleep won't set me free. Sleepless in the UK, No one to turn to kiss. How many are awake like me. And spend the night like this? Sleepless in the UK. I get up and watch the sky. Moon river is a sweet tune. ...Read On

Sorry

Im sorry it had to end this way But I knew it wouldn’t last My heart had left a memory That memory from the past We shared so many problems With friendship in our hearts The flood of tears that now I send, Will I hope wash you back my friend. We drew so close together As good friends normally do But now its too complicated for me Theres only one thing I can do ...Read On

Philena- Reality

Just a short whatever kinda from her POV, kinda not, about dreams and reality.

She held her covers over herself in an attempt to hide from her nightmares. Curled in a ball, she felt protected and safe- much like a cat does when it sleeps that way. But if she had only known then what she knew now, she'd escape to dreams- no matter how terrifying- instead of reality. She would soon learn- there are scarier things out there than heights and falling, and scarier men than...Read On

A Prayer

Dear God, do you know our pain?

A Prayer I got a call yesterday from my love. She said she ran into my boss and he asked her why I was a grump. In the last couple of weeks I had not smiled. She smiled wanly and agreed with him; she too had not seen a smile from me in awhile. Was it her, she asked. Was it my job? "Please tell me," she asked. "Will you just smile?" she pleaded. Then this early morn I was blessed...Read On

Burning Pianos

I was appalled when I heard that Texas A&M students regularly threw old pianos on bonfires at their parties. What sacrilege. I would sit in my cozy living room and play my keyboard with the doors wide open while it rained and the sheeting sweep of rain would fill my house with magic. I would play deep into the night. I would play and my soul would grow calm. One day my door was kicked in...Read On

Sadha's Beautiful Home (Part One)

Nothing is as it appears at first glance....

Pinching pale, pink flesh, Sadha “Blush” Maxwell, determined that she felt real, she was in this body, existing inside it as she has done since her host mother shat her into this realm. Unknowingly assisting in her great escape from fiery shackles for eternity, she meant no harm, but those stodgy old bastards below really should develop some sense of humor. She felt the tics, her head cocking...Read On

Tantric Yoga

Annoyed. Not at any one: generally irritable. I tell myself that acquisition of patience, the suspension between desire and attainment, is in itself the goal. Like Tantric Yoga.  My cursor wings away. I hover the mouse, awaiting the hand's return, ever reaching but never touching. Even the dreaded "Page(s) unresponsive" is ... unresponsive, with invitation neither to kill it (probably...Read On

Solarites Ch 10

I heard a voice... While I was asleep. She was calling out to me, telling me it was okay. She was okay and waiting... For the moment, I was happy to see her and hear her voice. She was like the younger sister I never had. Then the moment ended and I opened my eyes to the silent elf that was sitting at the foot of my bed. I noticed she had horns, like Fei, but they were like a stag's and looked...Read On

Wreckage

A grey and cold evening Sitting at the bar that night The wall of the noise You left when you were smiling That was your final act My eyes never shed a tear You are just antisocial  You'll always be a plastic image You think you're so modern When you walk in front of me My heart is still burning With the flames of wasted yearning Will it burn for evermore I go forward, hate remembering...Read On

Silence

but cover it...

Tap your toe, Pick at your jeans, Play around-  forums, Text random people, Hum random tunes, Bite your lip, Play with the keyboard- trying to think of what to write- you want to,  but what about? Listen to music- like always- breathe deep, calming yourself, Yawn- but cover it, Gasp- hold your sides- but cover it. Everything ends in silence....Read On
