She drinks. Her breath stinks of it. Her cheeks are always red. They don’t get close enough to see her rotten teeth. They see her smile and teach, laugh and joke. They see her set up races and muck in. They don’t see what I see.

He hides in the shadows, but no one is scared of him. It’s more of the opposite, the way he cowers away, pulling his claws in at the light of a flashlight. More bark than bite, is one name for it. A mere Halloween decoration some call him, though he is very clearly living and breathing in the same world we are. His chest rises and falls more quickly when he is scared and if you put a hand to his f...
Once upon a time, there's a man who's just lying on his bed all day and do nothing but to overthink. He takes a deep breath and cries "How can I pay our land title, it's already November and by the end of the year, I should have to pay it or else we're gone".

Before I used to be scared
No I really don’t care
Before I used to repeat the same nightmare
Now it’s like you were never even there
I wish I could talk to old me
I wish I could help her see
See what you really are
That your not a terrifying monster the color of tar
That your just a stupid shadow under my bed
That from the beginning it was all in my head
That your were nothing but an ugly fantasy...

A love that’s never fading
Sunset’s on my mind
You sit there waiting
For me to come home
Oh I already know
I’m anxious on the inside
Waiting for you to catch me tongue tied
Your eyes they watch my breath

Fingers running down my chest
No one’s ever seen me quite like this
But am I missing the next best thing
Women wrapped tightly ar...
“Be nice Dad.”
“I am nice.”
“No, mean it Dad. Be nice. Ryan is a sensitive kid,” Ronnie leaned in and whispered into his father’s ear. “Marilyn is already nervous about letting him stay here.”

Roscoe laughed and then wheezed into a hack...

That contains the letters
P-R-I-D-E
It squelches gracious mercy,
And laughs at moral
Humility
It rears its head and screams
And says, "I'm more than
Enough, you see."
It leaves no room for forgiveness
