I never imagined I would become rich. Wealthier than the richest person alive. Yet here it was, that unimaginable reality that had come to be.
Since the drought of 35’ the government sought to take control of water distribution. To not only preserve it, but also to control those it sustains.
It became a sign of power. A sign of wealth. You had water? Your now regarded in equality to royals.

Find me down the garden path, the one so full of life.
Find me picking honeysuckle with my pocket knife.
Find me sprinkling primrose seeds among the blooming rows.
Find me singing songs of love as the colors begin to show
Find me in the complex trees under the morning sun
Find me laughing with kea birds as they watch me run
Find me on the ivory bench listening to the doves
Find me down the garde...
It was with little ease getting there but it was absolutely worth it.
Just minutes ago it was my boyfriend and I trekking through this valley. It was a place, he said, that had the most amazing of views and boy was he right. Looking out at the valley below, it seemed to go on for miles. It felt like miles to be fair.
And just as we reached the peak of the mountain, the sunset bloomed. ...
A perilous journey
Filled with stormy trails
A feat like no other
One to spark tales
Up in the skies
Numbers in the hundreds
They flap their wings
But predators are abundant
The journey of a monarch
Not a power or a queen
But a small orange butterfly
One not often seen
Thousands of miles
From the north to central
From america to Mexico
This journey is essential
With its numbers so high
It is...
Birthday
My Birthday
The best of them all
Birthday
My birthday
Don’t sing to me at all
The awkwardness
The fear
When the waiters
Draw near
Where do I look
What do I do with my hands
I hated it so but
I made it worse with a glance
Eye contact
With who I didn’t know
But all I can remeber
Is her saying “enjoy the show!”
The waiters left
Their song now sung
They hated it as much as I did
This is...
“I have no magical abilities, I am just incredibly perceptive,” she said steadily, “Allow me to demonstrate.”
She side eyed a boy at a desk to her left. He was skinny but not frail, standing at six foot. His eyes held weights while his smile hid nothing. He was struggling with the death of a loved one, she realized.
“If I see something wrong I will issue passes and excuse late work. But know yo...
Some think of a jungle
Others of a city
I on the other hand
Think of something more pretty
Rolling green fields
Filled to the brim
With flowers and ponds
Where animals swim
Mangroves to the left
Birch wood to the right
Rolling green fields
Where there’s nothing of fright
Time feels funny
Like it’s noon all day
No people to feed
No bills to pay
Oh how I would love
To be in those fields
It’s onl...
I look in the mirror
Of my messy messy room
I can’t seem to rid the feeling
Of over looming doom
Somethings not right
Something that I can’t see
What is it, I don’t know
Maybe somethings wrong with me
It’s not my room
Or clothes or the lights
It’s something deeper
I can’t sleep through the night
Panic ensued
I say it’ll be alright
Head in my hands
Just get through the night
Though it was quic...
I remember it like it was maybe yesterday. Most call it a festival but Im not sure that’s how it went.
I remember that my two friends—they were siblings!—were banished from our homeland from a tyrant of a sorts. The tyrant was ruthless and cared about nothing but punishing to the very extent of the law.
He had announced a festival—I think—to celebrate the homeland. Little did we know it was an e...
