there are so many bubbles under the water so many  so many bubbles under the water  when you are under the water you don’t need  to be scared  you don’t need to  you don’t need  to be  scared   when you’re under the water the water you are so big to the ocean  so  to…

water always moving

There were a couple of grey smooth stones. She put them in a row curving around itself. If she found a stone that was wet on one side, she put that one facing the sky so the sun could heat it up and it would dry off. She did this for a while. She shifted…

house in the woods

Woke up at dawn and first thing she noticed was the light was out.  She didn’t know if someone had done it or if it happened on its own. She didn’t see any other signs that someone had been around. But she felt groggy and it was taking a while to get used to being…

on this wave falling towards the deep

Girl on the board on the wave. Gliding. Lean back. Hover forward. Like you’re always right on the edge of falling down. Girl rides the wave and she makes it look easy. Like it’s the easiest thing in the world when she shifts left. Shifts right. Girl knows what to do as she comes to…

Where was the twinkling light of the sunrise in the morning? No, this was a great empty hall and a hallowness — a sound she had never heard before. It…

song for the night

quiet nights and quiet stars sometimes stars can sing and see quiet moon and quiet branch trees that wave above to me This was the little song she made for herself when the wind was chilly and the sky turned dark. This was the song she sang to herself to keep only but herself company…

dancing pool of light

Spinning through outer space the girl tumbled back through time to the instantaneous moment when worlds collided and voices rang out. The girl was dizzy from her trip. The girl didn’t know where she was or who she was. The timeline was so murky, you see. And it was only a matter of conscience before…
