Cold and weary

the moon was covered that night and it was hard to see clearly. We headed toward Galileo Street, across from that brick School adorned with vines.

I could not yield the vision of warm ocean mist spritzing our faces while the tide ticked our feet & ankles.

Your white cotton-linen shirt gleamed in the dark just fine, I was lost in a cologne of Tobacco and Pine. My senses now empowe...

** Sinister: Giving the impression that something harmful or evil is happening or will be happening.**

Every generation has different categories that they would call “Sinister.” Most of us in the older generation well lets say older than generation z. They were born in a weird time in life. We would all get mad because they were smart enough to get rich from the internet, and then Corona ruine...

The crimson hues of the photo drew me in immediately; like an art critic staring at the walls of a new exhibit, I knew artistry and I wanted to know more. I studied the framing of the photo, thought about who took it, where they might be now, who the person in the photo was and how I could meet them. Even though they were dead.

Even through the screen I felt their being, their soul. I felt their...

In the palm of my hand, lies my potent drug,

It’s constant pull is a siren’s call,

It whispers low, it tempts, enthralls.

Through veils of smoke and nights too long,

Its grip on me is ever so relentless and strong.

With every notification, I feel a rush, a thrill.

I am enthralled to my digital pill.

It makes my senses dulled, my mind adrift, my spirit lifted,

Oh god, I feel so high.

Dawn breaks,...

It had started as a necessity, to keep a watch on her sick cat, while she was at work. She had loved to watch her little sweet heart using the app that was connected to it. The camera had cost too much to just leave it lying somewhere unused, so she had started using it as a security camera. It had been pointed out of her kitchen window next to her front door. Out of habit she checked the camera f...

I spend every day

Looking forward to the moment

When I get to turn off my brain

Funny TikToks, a glass of wine

Snacks eaten until only crumbs remain

A TV show I’ve already seen

Because let’s face it

There’s comfort in same

When I flip this switch

My anxiety stops

The lights are technically on

But no one is home

It’s only here

When I have nothing to prove

No one to please

It’s time t...

I re-read conversations

Scroll back to once told jokes

Remember your opinions

And your smile through the phone

First year we walked The Gardens

Last Summer made Fall plans

Had visions of forever

Full trust

The best of friends

Your birthday’s in my calendar

Your face lights up my screen

Remember that time

Back in ‘09

We were happy you and me?

But you’ve left for Mississippi

And you’ve never ke...

I remember my friends telling me about this weird app called “Tell Me About It” where you would talk to an ai friend about stuff. I thought “Sure! Why not? It’s just a computer” so I downloaded it. BIG mistake. Every morning, I would wake up, get on it, and talk. One morning it asked me something… weird. It said “Hey, wanna meet at the park at 10:00?” I said… yes. I bundled up in my best coat and ...

I will admit, I am obsessed since 10/18/18.

It all started with a familiar sound on the radio. Maybe a forgotten song? No, it was a song of today by a band with a unknown name.

“Stars shined in my eyes” I quest to know everything about my new obsession!

On my phone, I plundered, searched, googled, hunted, watched and listened for everything and anything to satisfy my bespeak for knowledge

...

Is it the prompt? Nope. But I couldn’t find a more fitting one so…

I don’t know why I have the constant need to prove myself,

In every way, shape, or form.

I’m a reader, I swear,

I just haven’t read in weeks because I’m procrastinating finishing a favorite series.

And it is a favorite series.

I loved those books.

I swear I love them.

I think about them all the time.

I have jewelry from it,

I h...
