If you told my law-breaking 16 y.o self that I’d be protecting others, ex-con turned good samaritan, wearing cuffs and posing for mugshots gone citizen arresting rogue agent, I wouldn’t have believed you. But here I am, certified and ready for action.

Is it a cop-out to never love again? To deny any and all the possibilities of it? Regularly battle with the idea that this is for the best: to remain vacant and hollow in interactions with others in order to protect what’s left of my particularly fragile heart. Other times I know that those connections […]

Overtime in every way Learning lessons, Earning pay The brain can’t be gauged on the wage They say, your age says it all Well it just may Cause with each passing day The game gets easier to play.
Seasons Changing – 5/20/16
Time passes when you let it. Stuck hanging in previous seasons – losing all meaning and sense of mindfulness. Not even sure I saw this years spring bloom. Granted, it happens overnight here in Minnesota. Ice thaws. Frost ridden leftovers of a cold, chilled heart melts. Traces of blood still all too visible in what […]

Those people fit society like a glove. What about the rest […]
Expressionism – Cont. – 2014 and beyond.

Expressionism – 10-29-13 (2)
Mental note: don’t go mental. If shit comes and goes, why do we grasp so tightly? Like love will dissipate any moment, our money will vanish, our time will waste away. We know it comes in at its own and evaporates when it decides. We realize our choices and the fact that we’re ultimately powerless. […]
Expressionism – March 2013
The memories these walls contain would drive you insane if you created them, too. Can’t tell you how many times I pass that hallway, ever so aware of my choices. The same type of choices that led my stability to cave. Really, our relationship could have only taken so much pressure before cracking; Yet I […]
