One for the Sibling
This one is a tribute for a friendship ended.
We used to swim in the park, play with toys after dark, sing each other our favorite songs.
We used to play all summer day, wasting the hours away.
Now I haven't seen you in so long.
I want to call you sometimes, but I don't know what to call you sometimes.
Can't you see it doesn't matter to me?
Your my pal and friend. My one and only you.
Don't tell me "This is the end".
Thoughts and criticisms are very welcome.

How long can you flee when depravity calls?
How far do you fall?
How can you escape gluttony's need?
How much weight hinders your feet?
When darkness finds you again and again,
How does your light never dim?
I hear only the call
And in the dark, fall
With a burden too great to rise
I'll wait here, covered in lies.

Fall Equinox
Happy fall to all.
The equinox arrives
Bringing changing strides
Of day to night
From sun to moon-light.
Summer step down
Pass your crown
To fair Fall,
The ficklest of them all.
Spring was bright and fun
And summer a hot mess,
But now their reigns are done.
Autumn is come to bless
The harvest and winter's rest.
Fall be kind
To the creatures at work
Readying for the cold, cold hurt.
Fall be slow
To overtake the breeze
As storms brew on boiling seas.
Fall be bright
As death must come to all
But beauty can liven any pall.
Thanks for reading and have a wonderful equinox!
Thoughts and criticisms are welcome.

Quiet
Cloaked in silence,
Shrouded in mystery,
She kept warm thickly wrapped in her secrets.

Time Stops Every Day
Today the clock stopped at 1534.
The morning sped past the usual stopping point without pause.
When 1200 hit, I managed to choke down a fruit cup for lunch. I felt time slowing but pretended it was my nerves.
By 1307 time really started to slow. I switched between Law and Order on the TV, reddit on my laptop, and minesweeper on my phone. Every five minutes; switch. Keep it moving. Only a few more hours to go.
1453. I stared down the TV as another criminal was sussed out. If I move, I know time will stop for good. So I watched the episode in a haze, barely breathing while trying not to look at the clock.
1457. As the credits rolled, I turned off the TV. I checked my phone to see no messages, no distractions.
At 1505 I began to pace.
Go fast and keep time moving, I tell myself.
Round and round, over and over. Keep moving forward.
By 1508 exhaustion brought me to the floor. I should vacuum it.
I laid down.
1513. My vacant eyes watched the ceiling. I could almost see the edge of the afternoon creeping onward.
1519. It keeps slowing. I can't stop it, I can't wait. One second, two seconds, three…
When will I reach four?
1523.
An hour and a half. I can wait an hour and a half.
Time can't stop completely, that is ridiculous, right?
1525. I wanted to go back to the TV, to pass another episode before the maw of time. I don't. I can't. Everything is too slow.
1526. I just need to hold on a little longer. It is almost over.
1527. I tried not to look at the clock. To not watch the afternoon take a breath and... pause.
1528. If time won't move on its own, then I know how to speed it up. I'll just wait a little longer.
1529. Still an hour and a half to go.
Just a little longer, just a little longer, I prayed to no one.
1530 and I am halfway through the hour. Why don't I feel any relief though?
1531. I can speed it up again. I can make time run.
Just wait.
1532. Has time stopped? The sun hung in the sky, blasting the yard with the most intense rays of the day. If only it were a little lower, then it would be cooler and I could go outside. Time always moves outside.
1533. Is it over? I can't think anymore. I can't move. I can't distract myself from the slowing hands of the clock.
Please keep going, please.
1534. Just a little more.
1534
No, that isn't right. 35. It should be 35 by now.
1534. I don't want to; I need to. I have to. Time must move again and I know how to jump start it.
1535. There. That'll fix it.
2327. I guess I should head to bed.
Tomorrow will be another long day.

Rules for a coloring book.
1. No white may be left in the picture.
2. Do not “research” an actual representation of the picture.
3. In each picture a detail must be added, like stars in the sky or freckles on a face.
4. At the end of the book, tear out the best one and give it to a friend.
Enjoy!

Perception is Everything
I have never felt more lonely than being in a crowd nor more sociable than hanging out with myself. I have never felt uglier than when a lover calls me beautiful nor more pretty than when I make faces in the mirror. I feel funny when I laugh at my own jokes and flat when telling other people jokes. My perception of me is way more satisfying than the world’s.
