around the corner from something unknown

“Where are we?” The bird only cooed in response, looking at her with anticipation. Something was different. Where was the river? Where was the forest? 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…

Transfixed with the light while sitting on the staircase wondering peacefully drooping my eyes down until they close and all i feel is sun feeling the need to stretch deeply then i do nothing i stare off into space for a while i close my eyes and i can feel the world humming seems like…

no matter what

I step left. You can’t see me. I step right. No more fear. It’s just a game. So, I shrug. I’ll get my way. I’ll get my in. It’s a dance to me. I’m watching you. I find what I need. I feed you. I feed back. I get what I need.  You could move…

beautiful stranger

beautiful stranger by the pond out back bent to touch the pool of water clear blue ripples to the surface  fade to a whisper in stillness she watches she waits she finds joy in the small things lively things  simplicity jumping from point to point like mysterious complexity wrapped inside the inside wonder across her…

girl keeps running

Girl looked back behind her. “Quick! Pick it up!” Girl felt miles ahead of me, but in reality it couldn’t have been more than an arm’s length or so from where I was. Every time I sped up, she’d slip through my fingers again. “Quick! Keep up.” She’d look back over her shoulder. She was…

again

lights spotlights across my face  i’m looking down and when a ray of light lingers  i look up and flash i feel the light hit  the part of my eyes that change colors flash  and it’s gone lights alternating with shadows colorful lights creating  dots across my face then the outline of a fence the…
