Tick Tock or Go for a Walk.

Tik tok tells me I’m not lazy, it’s an ADHD response. That I’m autistic and in perimenopause, and has the gull to ask, where is my mind?? It makes me feel for people long dead, forgotten under the shades of reality tv. It makes me long for days that will never return and hate on and love people who like to record videos for no reason other than to record people getting angry at them. It makes…

Chapter 4 - Why are you pressing the "X" button?

Minn wants off Omega Six! Can she make it?

Minn Earthborn, I strongly advise against this decision at this juncture.  But Minn doesn’t care what Atlas says. She’s already slammed the door behind her, determined to find her way out of this god-forsaken place. Instantly she can tell it’s an unusual apartment complex. Not even condos have hallways this spacious, let alone the rounded walls or floating balls of light for lanterns.  It only…

Chapter 3 - Oh, you wish to leave?

The Sanctuary on Omega Six was built several centuries ago, Earth Time, though the concept of time in this galaxy is not straightforward due to the varying speeds of space expansion. Omega Six is the fourth of twelve planets orbiting the star that Minn would recognize as her sun. Among those twelve planets, only three support life: Alpha Four, Beta Nine, and our current location. Sanctuaries…

Soulrender

Everyone knew the beginning of the end started with him. His name was Galen Dorvrerra, an elf of a lineage stretching back through the annals of time. Having grown restless within the confines of the elven realm and its strictures, with a growing desire to explore beyond ancient traditions and secluded glades, towards something that called to his very soul, he defied all elven laws and…

An observation.

I noticed today, with my new format that shows my post history dates, that I had been posting pretty regularly here, at least monthly, since starting the blog back in 2016. However, my posts stop in February of 2020. Then I don’t come back again until July 2023. I’m thrown into those first months after the pandemic hit and the total 180 that everyone had to deal with. The intense fear that…

Hollowed - Chapter 2

Hello, welcome to The Sanctuary. It is good to see us awake again, Minn Earthborn.  Minn’s eyes bolt open. No! This is supposed to be a dream. This can’t really be happening. Her chest drops and swallows her. Please try not to attempt to stand up for several minutes, we may… Minn, I’m raising your Seratonin levels to maximum. Try to remember, we’re not in any danger here. We are in complete…

Hollowed

Hello, welcome to The Sanctuary, Minn Earthborn, our upload is complete. Please allow several minutes to pass before attempting to stand up. Minn slowly opens her eyes, her consciousness pulled from the depths of unconsciousness by the artificial voice. She isn’t sure if it is addressing her or someone else, but its presence is undeniable. “Did someone say something?” she asks groggily, her…

Write me a real letter

November 3/94 Oh shit, guess what? Ray and Linda broke up! I feel so guilty for liking him. But only Jolene knows that I do.

Good old teenage memories. 

  November 3/94

Oh shit, guess what? Ray and Linda broke up! I feel so guilty for liking him. But only Jolene knows that I do.

He wrote me a little note today too, asking me why I never call him or write him anymore. Uh, like hello, you had a girlfiend. So I wrote him back and said all he had to do was ask! I told him he could write me a real letter if he wanted to. I…

Cut Me Open

If I die without cause do not let it stay unknown cut me open examine my #fibrous insides so I may #believe my constant worry about what takes me will be settled in blood

If I die without cause

do not let it stay unknown

cut me open

examine my fibrous insides

so I may believe

my constant worry

about what takes me

I Don't Even Know

I Don’t Even Know

Underground

in a swollen tomb

of graceful shame

I hide

To sleep is to forget

the quiet of night

foreshadowing the day

to briskly enter

as new and clean

as a pure child in utero

Feel the strength of ripped skin

pushing through black moist fulfillment

Burn to hear the scream of life

Burn to hear the sex you’ve created

Yearn for joy and calm

Never turn away

Tho always going to extremes

mainly for…

Maybe

maybe pulls my heart to pieces

maybe sings a different song

maybe makes me insecure

maybe voices I play along

maybe always in a hurry

maybe never gets things done

maybe somehow

maybe somewhere

things change

Buffy in Transylvania We'd been tracking a White Wraith for weeks. It left a trail of meals all across Europe.

Encore

Something seizes

breaks within me

I can’t catch my breath

I struggle to scream out

yell for help

Instead of my heart racing

as per usual

I feel nothing but sharp edges

My knees betray me and buckle

I collapse on the hardwood

There will be no encore
