Love writing, hate editing. I love world building, exploring possible futures through the medium of story, and view writing as the ultimate opportunity to share meaningful experiences and write run on sentences.

Particular Night pt. 3

The Wrong Reflection
Summers in northern Michigan can be unbearably humid. The variety of tiny creatures adds to the nightmare from all angles. The lightning bugs, the only heroes of these damp nights. They just fly around being beautiful. Imagine how self-reliant they must feel. Isn't that what we all truly wish for? To light our own paths with conviction?

Red on Gray
“Is that something?” Dammit! I was hoping she didn’t see it. Of course she saw it! Everything is gray. Always fucking gray and chalky and dry!! The little flickers of sunlight peeking through ricochet off in every direction, failing in its attempts to add color or life to this shithole. Splashing against the depressing background of the ruins, illuminating misery. Yet just like all of us, still trying its best.
