there is a fetid feel in the air, trudging through the halls hitting the walls like shit that hits the fan there isn’t a way to take it out like yesterdays garbage so it wafts and infuses itself with all it touches it takes a spark to set it off, air to carry it around [...]

love…it was madly, truly, deeply and sick and twisted gut wrenching blood curdling ~~ life…it just got sucked out of every pore, yet there is no end to it …death wishes come to taunt and tease understanding of pure evil disguised and wrapped in dogoodiness that isn’t that good sleep, never peaceful never fitfull joy wiped [...]

“Do not be too moral, you may cheat yourself out of much life so. Aim above morality. Be not simply good, be good for something.” -Henry David Thoreau Morals-motivation based on ideas of right and wrong. Morons-idiots not living life due to excessive worry about morality, usually someone else’s. I can honestly say that my [...]

Control Being in control, taking control, losing control, having control, ceding control, and using control….. My battle with control has been a long one, one I will probably never completely give up no matter the detritus to me. My early memories of good, bad and ugly all fighting for a piece of me go way [...]
Dregs of Society~

I think of the dregs of society, the riffraff, the offscourings, the scum of the earth….the lowest of the low and I look in the mirror and I see that I am no different. We can all judge and play it any which way we want to. Could I stand next to a known murderer [...]
Foundation of relationships~
Posted in ~~The Write Stuff~~, tagged Intimate relationship, relationship, trust on July 21, 2011 | 2 Comments »
We base relationships on different things. We all do. At least in my opinion I believe that we do. I would venture to say that some relationships may even have a healthy dose of pretense. She pretends he isn’t too small/too big (there) and he pretends she isn’t too big/or small (there). He pretends to like her cooking, [...]

Maybe she’s born with it. Maybe it’s Maybelline®. Maybe it’s a whole lot of other stuff that just bubbled up to the surface, kinda like the head on a frosty beer mug. Maybe it is the incessant reminders of mistakes made in times past. Maybe it’s the stupid games she got caught up with, though [...]

Funny how life is. A glance at a box and then a sly glance and the discovery of another box and then that box is opened and WOW who’d have thunk it…sigh. So it happened and she was transported back in time, time-lapse of 20ish years, she was but a mere child, they were but mere babies. [...]
