Apologies if I don't make much grammatical sense. I have a concussion and am struggling to write coherently. All I ever want in life is to be a Renaissance man. A jack of all trades. To be able to do anything and everything in a skilled manner. I can draw, I write, I'm a poet, I crochet, I clean bones, but it's not enough. It's never enough. I'm in a constant pursuit of knowledge t... » Continue Reading

Illness Has Settled Into My Body Once Again.
Category: Life
In honor of my current illness, I am writing again, and if you do not like it, you should stop reading but you will not! You never do. People pretend to have boundaries and then wander straight past them like sleepwalkers. Anyway, I am sick and therefore qualified to speak on sickness. More qualified than usual! Praise! » Continue Reading

Charles Dickens
Category: Writing and Poetry
Have you ever read Dickens? Or rather, have you ever sat down and attempted to sift through the garbage pile called classic literature? Every time I pick up one of his novels, I feel like I’m agreeing to shove fifty pieces of gum in my mouth. He uses so many words to say absolutely nothing. Paragraphs upon paragraphs, and sentences the length of sauropods. It's a headache, a c... » Continue Reading

Every Cat Is Gray
Category: Life
I spend an embarrassing amount of time obsessing over the idea of being “good.” Good in the moral sense, the cosmic sense, the stupid mundane sense of doing no harm, making no mess, causing no disturbance. A harmless creature. A quiet creature. A well-behaved little critter. But the problem is that “good” doesn’t exist. If morals are subjective, then good is... » Continue Reading

Hinge-Bound
Category: Writing and Poetry
"Scissors," never "scissor," my mother would say to me. For halves are born as partners, and partners meant to be. Two spirits yoked in metal, in duty intertwined. Their covenant unbroken, » Continue Reading

Cogito
Category: Life
I sat so still I nearly petrified, frozen in my own filth and mundanity. Hours passed like bugs, laying eggs in the soft meat of my mind. I felt them hatch, I named a few. I caught them in a box, then gassed with raid spray. A time infestation in my home, gross. There's nothing to do but marinate in myself. In the hungry, hollow hum of a brain that won’t shut up. Thou... » Continue Reading

Soft Communion
Category: Writing and Poetry
In corridors of candle-smoke and rooms of wilted white, I met a gentle wanderer: the anthropophagite. His boots were stitched of funeral cloth, his coat of evening’s gloom, And round his throat a ribbon hung, still scented faint of tomb. He spoke in sighs of silted skies, » Continue Reading

Cell by Cell
Category: Life
They say “patience is a virtue,” but that’s what jailers say to the jailed. I’ve been patient enough to fossilize. I can feel myself hardening, cell by cell, like amber around a bug that used to be me. My caretaker calls it love. I call it SICK preservation. Yes, I was made to rot, but I was also made to move. I’ll go however I can. Plane, bus, thumb... The method doesn’t matter. Movemen... » Continue Reading

A Rambling Post Born Of Frustration And Suffocation.
Category: Life
You are not in the continuum. You ARE the continuum. Don't you understand? You don’t enter reality like a polite guest wiping thy feet upon the mat. Nay, you bleed into it. You drag your trembling little soul across the floorboards of existence and call it “ being alive .” Precious! Laughable! A jest fit for the gods ! You think you're apart from the noise, yet you are the very hum itsel... » Continue Reading

The Title Decomposed Before I Could Think Of It
Category: Life
How revolting that I must exist like this! This cage of meat... This sweating, seething, sagging mass of weakness. My flesh offends me. It leaks, it bruises, it clings, it bleeds when bitten and swells when shamed. I bite my nails until I bloom red, peel the skin from my lips like old wallpaper, dig crescents into my arms just to confirm I’m here. That I’m not merely a tumor that’s grow... » Continue Reading
