Bio
I'm a singer/songwriter so naturally I am also a poet and writer of short stories. I thought I could get some easy money writing for these contests but it's all the same self aggrandizing social media bullshit as everything else these days.

The Tachyon Anti-Telephone
It’s really a simple invention if you think about it for a year or so. Time is another dimension; a place that you could travel if you could go. A telephone sends a signal through fiber optic cable or by satellite but the Tachyon Anti-Telephone sends them faster than the speed of light. I reach out to touch someone but I find it’s only myself. Everytime I answer it, I’m not home but I can’t reach anybody else. It all started back in detention for skipping physics class in the 11th Grade with a book report on Nikolai Tesla complete with the schematics of how Death Rays are made. Something in there got my attention, when he mentioned the negation of mass/gravity by converting them to information effectively vibrating as a frequency. I had the idea that day but it would take years, twelve long years to finally build the device.

The Chronicle of GNPT
GNPT was not like the other kids in the UFO cult. For starters, he was not the biological offspring of the Supreme Leader. Galax-Nu and Pee-Top, his genetically inferior progenitors, had sexually reproduced back when such things were permitted. In those days, combining the consonant phonemes of parental units like their DNA was the way Mission Command assigned designations to new lifeforms...in the happy years, before the “Sublime Directive” at which point the Supreme Leader was deemed the only adult male allowed to retain his penis. Many of the families GNPT grew up with understandably left the church at that time to form a much less intense UFO cult just down the street but his dad was a Rear Admiral in the Vortex Fleet with one billion years of service sworn to the Supreme Leader of the Galactic Confederacy. If that meant having his genitalia surgically removed then so be it. Most distinct from his parents and the remaining faithful, GNPT did not believe the imminent collapse of the third dimension was nigh nor in the infallibility of the Supreme Leader. The “Day of Cosmic Ascension” had come and gone maybe 40 times in the past 15 years and each time some dissonant vibration in the harmonisphere or quick detour to observe a celestial event several light-years off-course had invariably detained the Fathership’s arrival. He had plenty of doubts about the church before but a lot more was at stake than just another disconfirmed prophecy. Today was his 18th birthday and to put it quite bluntly; he didn’t want to chop off his dick.
