from period 3 on Mon., 5/13

the car honks
begin to fade
and the world
becomes silent
as I walk past
my nightmare.


-----


Save a
horse ride
a cowboy.


-----


All it takes
is a match,
to start a wild ride
that consumes everything.

Cause and effect.

What melodic dissonance.

Youth is a mess.

from Mon., 5/6 (after prom)

Hours of preparation,
the doorbell rings,
the camera's click,
silverware taps on china,
music blasts,
the casino roars,
the door clicks shut.

What an amazing night.


-----


In Colorado
the weather changes
the flowers grow
and then some snow
then the flowers die
it warms up
now it's time for ice cream
pie.


-----


boom clap boom boom cla--

and then the DJ just
had to talk through the
transition...again...

boom clap boom boom clap.


-----


Bodies swaing,
colors meshing,
beauty in every
form,
exhaustion hits,
birds chirp.

-----


Too close,
too far,
Just a bit away,
can we make it?
A slip of paper
to show the world.

from Mon., April 29th

Lights flash flash,
spending too much cash cash.
Please buy me a coke,
I am broke.
Cause I go to too many
concerts.


-----


Line in the water.
Fish on a hook.
Life is good today.


-----


The call of ages past
combined with new eyes,
illustrates the beautiful
possibility of eternity.
The pain is there the loss is here,
the story is done,
but now life is brand new.


-----


I love my
mom so much
you don't understand.

from Mon. 4/22

Yesterday the sun
was bright, today
it seems to want
to stay hidden,
burnt and
cold I sit, waiting
for spring to
end and summer
to begin.


-----


Hot.

It was hot.

But there were
clouds.

Nice.


-----


I saw a man boiling
hot dogs, I am hot dog
water.


-----


The distances
were off.

That's when
I jumped on
the train:

Long road
goes forever.

haiku weekend images from 4/15/19

What the freaking hell?
How's it already morning?
I just want to sleep.


-----


Walk for change
Time to make a difference
Family support always


-----


Solitude, tired.
Chilly wind and nice warm sun.
Blow it all away.


-----


A loud screaming wind
howling through the standing trees
branches getting thrown


-----


We all spend our lives
Looking for things we can't find.
Stressed about college.


-----


Haikus are stupid.
I don't want to do this now.
Please let me go home.


-----


Six hour bus ride.
Experience new culture.
Six hour bus ride.


-----


Hours of crying,
Trying to hand with my buds.
Ends in more crying.


-----


Out here working hard
Tryna make money Big Bank!
I need a car to Skrt Skrt.

10 word short stories from Mon., 4/8/19

I hate my job.
The money makes me happy, though.


-----


Old man
Sad childhood
Beaten
Alone
Better now
Love him.


-----


It is strange watching
your home of 120 years
burn....


-----


No sleep.
Tired.
Too much sleep.
Tired.
Always Tired.
Always.


-----


No officer,
ten of us were
not in that car.


-----


I'll talk
to you
again when
we are
both less
emotional.

dialogic weekend images from Mon. on 4/1

"Bye, I'm leaving."

"Where are you going?

"Work."

"Oh."

"Yeah."

"Okay."

"Okay, bye."


-----


"What's this?"

"I don't know. Why?"

"I found it in your room
along with all of your trash."

"Don't mean it's mine.
Now stop snooping and
leave me alone."


-----


"Peace washes over you
like a small stream
amidst the raging storm
of a vast ocean."

"It is well," I say.

"It is well. It is well
with my soul."


-----


"I love you. I
have always loved
you."

"Are you going to
ask me to marry
you?"

"No. I just need $20
for a video game!"
