no longer in service

sometimes the only surprise present received is the understanding just how little your life means in the grand scheme unless someone needs something then the expectation is you’ll come through because now you matter which helps reinforce how you already felt i never ask for anything yet still i am disappointed the story of my […]

permanence is a human flaw

billions of souls seeking some sort of purpose a hint of meaning to salve this condition of consciousness driven by the same instinctual urges as all life yet cursed with just enough understanding to question why careful contradictions denying base desires in a effort to seem self awakened rather than simply self aware searching for […]

algebraic incompetence

rundown ramblings

after months of attempted immolation the angry rays have calmed themselves enough to allow for a rare beautiful day with a hint of rain to finally feel as if summer might just fall into autumn it took me a few days to unknot my insides while working through the last stretch of my newest novel […]

desperate lines, broken measures

i keep waking up at three in a state of panic one thought unbidden snowballs until i am fully awake making coffee trying to remember how to breathe i need an opportunity to earn a living off the words because the world has me incapable of anything else

536 last smokes

row after row of corrugated roofs glinting angrily in the morning light an expanse of fields painted brown and yellow cash crops gone worthless as a senile poor man’s version of putin pouts he rigged a war to continue for months so he could claim credit for peace as he chased after a shiny new […]

using rainbows to spot imitations

true diamonds don’t refract light it simply passes through while lab grown stones act as prisms due to slight imperfections in the crystalline structure being artificially altered to mimic nature’s accidental perfection probably something deep buried in that i just found it to be utterly fascinating
