The Ever-present Dystrophy of the Inhuman Mind

When I was in grade five, I felt my sanity shatter The forest became the home to which I returned From the house in which I lived. I found solace in the way plants grew Knew how exactly to tell whether wood was rotted Not isolated But free I let my ears and tail grow out, As I ran around, Protected from the summer sun By the canopy above. At night, I slept under the stars. The cadence of thunder was a lullaby beyond the capacity of the earthbound. And waking up never smelled as sweetly as it did after the rain. That September, I returned to a world Where I kn

Come on, Skinny Love

The CVS doors make a slight whooshing sound as they open. The emptiness of the store feels weird. I knew it would be; it always is after midnight. I take the long way around to the refrigerators : left at the Minute-Clinic, past the magazines and the five dollar toys that parents buy just to shut their kids up. Left again. The large plastic bottle of red Gatorade slips from my hand a few times as I try to pull it out of its row. I walk over to the oral hygiene aisle and grab a blue container of mouthwash. Next is a thing of Old Spice deodorant; I still have some left in the stick on the bureau, but I'm alread

Rhinoceros and Hippo

Rhinoceros and Hippo Rhinoceros had a date with Hippo. He finished cleaning himself up, put on his suit and tie, and combed over his few wisps of hair, all the while trying to drown out his mother’s constant stream of advice. As he walked out of the door, Mother Rhinoceros remembered that she had forgotten to tell him something. Rhinoceri can be such forgetful creatures. “Don’t forget to be completely honest,” she screamed after him. When both Rhinoceros and Hippo had arrived at the restaurant that they had agreed upon, Rhinoceros&

Made You Look

Made You Look Mr. P sat in his office leafing through his copy of A Compendium for the History of Impressionism: From Monet to Modern. The room made him feel comfortable, secure. On the wall behind him rested his favorite picture, The Brahms Waltz by Robert McGill Mackall. His computer was open to a page about the beginning of the impressionist movement. He was rereading his favorite section, the one about Armand Guillaumin, for the second time today. “Mr. P, Flax Blanchley is here per your request,” his secretary, Ms. Pereno called from the connected room. “All right, send him in,” Mr. P resp

Artist's Statment/My Teacher told me to make a box

My teacher told me to make a box and to fill it with things about myself. So I did, but I was not quite sure what to fill it with. After all, I'm only seventeen, and not pretentious enough to think that anything I have done actually matters or that my personality is the same as it will be ten years down the road. My teacher told me to make a box, so here's a forest.

Alpha and Omega

Alpha and Omega Crevan dashed forward, down the worn forest path. Fenris, his older brother, "Hey, don't go that fast. You're gonna-" Crevan's right foot caught on a root and he fell flat on his face. As he picked himself up into a half-crouch, he saw that Fenris had caught up and was standing in front of him. "I knew this was going to happen. You should listen to me more." "Why? I'm eleven; I can take care of myself." Crevan wiped a smudge of dirt off of his cheek with the back of his hand and used his fingers to comb some of the dirt out of his auburn hair. "So, you're not mature enough to just run off like that. Stuff could happen

Thock! The arrow landed a foot and a half to the left of the target and ten feet behind it tunneling into the ground outside the forest clearing. "Come one, Roak. You're going to have to do better than that to get dinner," Roak's older brother taunted him, his voice echoing slightly in the forest clearing. His two brothers and one sister had hit dead center on each of their targets. "You shouldn't tease him, Vin. You know he can't keep up with us because he was-" "Being born prematurely is no excuse for a lack of skill," Wisteria reproached her older brother fiercely. "Beside, he's twelve and he can hardly defend himself, let alone civi

Upright No-tail Ways

Upright No-tail Ways I hear the Upright No-tails Travel in the stomachs of metal beasts Zipping around on black tar roads. Eventually, the beasts Vomit them back up; Not much digests. One time, Crow told me the upright no-tails Had destroyed Owl's home That lots of trees were being cut down So the no-tails can live there. Crow says that I should stay away; The no-tails should not be trusted. Once, When the river was too clogged with tree bits and muck, the no-tails came and cleaned it out. Mouse told me that She saw no-tails Hit a dog with sticks. They stood around and cheered Mouse could do nothing I was told they pun

Every Bit by Soulharp, literature

Every Bit

Hello. Instead of doing a creative writing piece like usual, I wanted to just talk to you guys. Just a couple weeks ago marked the anniversary of one of my friend's death. The family never released the circumstances of his death, but there was a lot of speculation that he had killed himself. So I was wondering, have you guys ever considered something like that? Cutting, suicide, other stuff? Just to let you know, this post isn't about me. I've never actually done anything like it. I considered it briefly a couple years, but I'm done with that. This is for everyone who has ever felt that they aren't worth it or that the pain is too much.

Personal Quote: "Centuries ago, in the deserts of North Africa, people used to gather for these moonlight dances of sacred dance and music that would go on for hours and hours, until dawn. And they were always magnificent because the dancers were professionals and they were terrific, right? But every once in a while, very rarely, something would happen, and one of these performers would actually become transcendent. And I know you know what I'm talking about because I know you've all seen, at some point in your life, a performance like this. It was like time would stop, and the dancer would step through some kind of portal, and he wasn't doing anything different than he had ever done, a thousand nights before, but everything would align. And all of the sudden he would no longer appear to be merely human. He would be lit from within, and lit from below and all lit up on fire with divinity. And when this happened, back then, people knew it for what is was, you know; they called it by its name. They would put their hands together and they would start to chant: "Allah, Allah, Allah, God, God, God." That's God, you know?"
