I’m imagining, I’m a CEO, at a big hedge firm. My office is tremendous. there are sophisticated computers, all around. phones ringing.The office was furnished with bookshelves filled with books about the stock market, autobiographies of important men in Congress. On the third shelf there were pictures of my family on vacation. Next to that family picture, was photo encased in glass of John F. Ken...

             I sit at my desk twiddling the ring that is planted on my left hand. Round and round in circles it goes.

Two weeks before the wedding

The house was cold but I did it feel the cold because I was so excited. The witch walked into the room and for once I felt happy. I knew going to ask her for help was considerd a bad idea but I couldn’t help it. I really wanted to be smart and come up with ideas so when she asked me what I wanted that’s what I said. The witch had me sit in a chair with candles in a circle around me. And then she c...

I see him, pulling my arm forcing me to face him as the rain patters down.

“I’m sorry!” He shouts as the pattering becomes stronger on the cold cement driveway.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” I ask, cold drops trickling down my face.

He lifts his head, his black eyes locking on mine.

A gust of ...

I could think of anything, but I’m thinking about them.

I’m not sure how I feel about it. They’re cool and mysterious. Serious faced except when something makes them laugh and then I can’t stop looking. They are gorgeous. I’ve always thought that about them, if only we had more time together. “I don’t think they care to get to know the real me, the one who laughs and loves and thinks” I say to my...

I start my day the same way every day. My alarm rings, and so does my husbands’, a warning that our time together is ending soon, as we push tighter into each other to steal the skin to skin contact while we can.

To pick the low hanging fruit

I don’t have the bandwidth

To boil the ocean

To break down silos

They need to get on board

To push the envelope

To be breakthrough

Hard stop

Confused? Me too!

Sorry, did you think this was a poem?

We’re you trying to make sense

She suddenly awakes in a grass field. She enjoys the halcyon breeze until suddenly, she hears screaming. Jumping up, she searches for the source of the screaming, her eyes landing on a small kingdom. Small, literally, it the kingdom of Cats. Grabbing her bag, she pulls out her sword and runs over to the kingdom. As shes coming upon the castle, she sees 3 small gremlin-like creature. She quickly be...

Day dream

Not what it seems

Office boredom

Continuous humdrum

Phone rings

Dingaling

Lost in thought

Hopeless distraught

Bored to tears

Dreaming through years

Loosing sight

Just another night...

Do you think they call it the runs because you have to run to the bathroom when you have them or because of the manner in which it comes out?

What?

Is it the because you RUN there or because it’s runny?

why (like what is wrong with you type of why)

when I walked in today I watched someone from the first floor run from their car to their office and they had the look of like “i’m going to shit m...
