Literature

Shiver

An earthquake rolls across her skin as green curtains reserve a space for construction - he looks at splattered bed sheets and cradles a small shiver. He inhales, holds the breath. Hands calloused by supermarket boxes grip the railing. Cord of blood and sweat fused into life is taken into other, more precise palms. A hand on his shoulder whirls him around - birth is burdened into his arms. Black curls smell sweet. He feels her hand envelope his as he leans forward to kiss the wailing temple turned an angry shade of red. She's whisked away - to wash and dry. A statue of bones - becomes a colossal collapse.

Literature

Good Morning, World

There’s noise – lots of it – and my ears strain to hear the excited shrieks. I roll over, groaning as the sheets knot against my body. An illuminated 7 AM greets me and I turn around, as if refusing to acknowledge the passage of time. ‘It’s Sunday.’ The words vibrate against the walls. My heart thumps. I can feel a patch of my skin warming from the sunlight screaming through my window. ‘Sunday, Sunday.’ His little feet patter down the hallway and I can hear his fingertips grazing the wall as he goes. ‘Sara.’ ‘Yes?’ I lift my head to see his eyes level with mine. He’s jumpin

Sand and Cement

She dreamt in the morning, the bed half empty with the sheets harnessing her body. In the dream there was only a street corner, the rest of the street a white mass, yet to be sketched. Her face wasn’t her own, but she could feel each tendon move and the sensation follow. The bicycle rested against her thigh, a replica of the one her dad bought back in ’87. She ran a hand through the two-tone streamers as she waited for the newspapers, and turned her face just as the wind smoothed by. In the white basket laid a baby wrapped in newspaper, its face woven red, but when she tried to pick the newborn up, her arms changed. They merged to t

clay

cowardice runs deep, like a rich vein of red through the bottom of a Colorado river. so I gathered that clay, scooped it up in my hands and packed it, carefully, over my face until it covered every inch; and my lidded eyes were merely dents in the thick tan façade. this was cleaner than the traditional, Oedipal method of blinding oneself. alone, the clay was not enough. I stayed inside the house, too, under cover of a sturdy blue roof that cordoned the horizon – because out here there is too much sky to hide from. and I ignored the phantoms still flitting in my ears, because they spoke of the kind of roses

Nowhere

They were everything, the stars – their hope we harbored in our pockets, and it seeped under our fingernails in the winter cold until we bled and breathed them, believed their possibilities cupped like fireflies in our hands – we went to sleep to them and woke to their memory, dreamed them in between – we ourselves piloting the ships of tomorrow. They called us, stringing their melodies down to earth in half-remembered filaments of color: we whispered our promises up in return, the four of us, our breaths frosting windows as we stared up and pointed at the darkening sky. Lodged in our eyes and minds, the stars, and th

Letter to be Sent by Comet

Dear pilot of mine, It's not as if I'll ever send this, because it's merely self-indulgent crap written on a coffee break. The others don't know what I'm doing, and they won't look over my shoulder, either, because I'm an administrator and you don't do that to administrators. Not even those who have had so many cups of coffee (espresso, too) already that their hands are starting to shake. It's a bit hard to type but this is for you, dear. We both know by now that it was all lies that they told us. Not that they meant to lie to us, or anything, it just turned out that way – because we all really believed this was the future of humanity,

He was all hands

His leather skin repelled the rain, I lied in sky colours and danced in the grass, His weight on his cold elbow, I was unknown with Mary as my middle name. He built dents in my eyes, that caused my pupils to focus on nearby brickwork. I nested an embarrassment, for years divided myself into face, eyes, lips (that couldn't say no). I did not open my mind. earlier, I had put a sign on my cheek and sold me.

Literature

we were warned

I have written this story two thousand and six times, never perfect, only half-truths that make me want to hide inside boat engines and hum. There is a fish hook in my left eye, trying to be a simile, but not quite as loud as the SOS calls I have coming out, all over. I am not supposed to smoke cigarettes anymore, or kiss you on the lips on the street. But hey, what the hell! I do it anyway because we’re always hungry at the same time as each other. One hour apart. I think it’s a lighthouse signal we both missed because we’ve been hanging from these cliffs with cut feet for six weeks and I want to save you but

we are taproots

I will not panic in the absence, of your xanax hair that makes you feel like those things you try to believe in. Like your humor, like your smile, like you're inflated to the bigger person you wish to chew on without letting the fat cells sink to thigh-level and your skull to sky-level. Your scowl is the one thing that makes my eyes turn into spiral stairs at 8am. We are more than car park friends now, I wait in phone boxes and you sit on rooftops with your theorem-lids vomiting sleep -- you should not let them hit the ground, we do not know this gravel well. You speak in half truths -- you say I'm a victim of finger nails

Christian: Not a Label

Yes, I am a Christian. That doesn't mean I'll be showing up on your front porch Waving a Bible in your face screaming "Have you heard? Heard the Good News?" Yes, I am a Christian. That doesn't mean I'll condemn you to hell for drinking that glass of wine, Telling you to treat your body like a temple and keep it pure. Jesus Christ drank wine, didn't he? Yes, I am a Christian. That doesn't mean I'll be picketing your home, your work, your friends Just because your beliefs don't agree with mine. That's a little childish, right? Yes, I am a Christian. That doesn't mean that I devote my Sundays to God, turn off the phone, TV and ligh

PROSE What Spies Do

My dad is a rock. He is solid, he is powerful. He can still pick me up and toss me over his shoulder. He is never seen to cry, he can never be swayed or damaged by opinion. He is a real estate agent, and he pushes those deals and sways those clients with confidence and experience. He flexes his arms at the dinner table when I ask him and points exactly which way it is to the beach or the gun show. He is a tree, a mountain, a thick and formidable presence in any room, in any place, against any person. “He’s late,” my mom said, and pursed her lips through the ste

Closer

too close to see, you are too close to me, an eclipsing gaze, all arms across us, i wouldn't leave, if i could go but you know this - you knew of love once you want to know again, you try to kiss me, as if drawing love out, and breathing love in, die again and again, you'd rather, than death you've almost known, too close for comfort

Literature

Not For Me, For You

not for me to feel - nothing as far as i can see, nothing close to me, my heart is deeper under, the black wells of forget, tears are the only stars i see, why do stars burn to live dreams are mute walls; sky is lost to a vapor moon - i drift, not forever is a veil i will wear to cover me from the absence of myself; i will hide behind the anonymity of trees, for you to feel left behind

She Dances With Fire

She dances with fire, a dragon in tow. Twirling with flames; graceful and slow She dances tonight, in a city of ash. Her feet leaving footprints, where the sand will splash. Quietly mourning, as time goes by; Where once she beheld a home in her eyes... Yet naught but the barest of bones remain, And so she dances, to soothe the pain.

stormchaser

dear sarah, yesterday I tried to swallow the sun. it burned me up on the inside until even my skin was hot to the touch, and I thought of you. I hope you have found better ways than me to feel lighter. heaven knows there are days where I still trade my feet for concrete blocks and try to sprint to the finish line, but at least I have stopped straying towards the riverbanks. at least I get out of bed. most days, that’s enough. but if you tell me that most days life still feels like a choice you’re making every minute, I will tell you that I understand. I have spent years trying to outrun my sadness, sipping sunlight until my vision blurs and looking up only to realize I’ve been going in circles and calling it progress. every escape I ever made is a town I can never go back to and I’m not better for it. I carry so many graveyards around inside of me, and I’ve lost count of how many bridges I’ve burned because I confused loving with leaving. take my sadness away, I don’t

This is really old-- from the summer of '05, but I'm actually still fond of it because these shoes don't really fit anymore.
