Turned Down

Jared hurried through the door of the apartment, slamming it shut behind him. He lumbered his way across to the lone kitchen chair and sat down hard in an exhausted heap, wheezing as if he had just beat Lance Armstrong in the Tour de France. Mentally, he was still in a daze; his mind buzzed around like a fly on crack that just couldn't find his way out of the blender. He hadn't expected murder to be such tiring business. Eventually, after huffing, puffing, and sweating in the kitchen chair, Jared snapped back into conscious thought. He was safe at home and thinking now would be as good a time as any for a drink. He poured a haphazard sp

Happy Birthday, You Bastard

It was a damn fine cake and Will was proud of his work. He knew chocolate would be perfect. Chocolate was Paul's favorite flavor. And this masterpiece was now three layers of moist, delicate chocolaty heaven. Three perfectly exact layers, glued together by a rich, orgasmic, next-to-black icing. The powerful scent of its sweet goodness was drawn up Will's nostrils as he smoothed out the top most layer; his tongue sticking out while he worked the surface smooth. This was the kind of cake Paul would ask for if he had to choose one last thing to eat in his lifetime. Man, that kid loved chocolate cake. Will and Paul had known each other fo

One From Two

I'm waiting for you to arrive; My passion is starting to revive. Hypnotized by our front door, I don't think that I can wait anymore. Anxiousness is breaking in, And my patience is wearing a gypsy's grin. When are you gonna be home? I am restless here when I'm all alone. So, the moment you're through that door, I'm gonna pounce and tackle you to the floor, And kiss your angel face, So you know you're home in the perfect place. And later, somewhere in the hall, I'm gonna randomly grind you against the wall, And wrap myself up in you; Pressing close enough to make one from two. My heart is beating way too fast. There's not eno

Uniforming.

Hope is in the guest bedroom unpacking. It takes years to unpack in the guest bedroom. Actually, it just never ends. The mismatched pairs of socks keep multiplying, and the bed never molds to your shape. It is a slab of ambiguity that ensures that no guest ever feels at home. There's a pink cardboard Kleenex box on the nightstand and ruffles around the bed frame. It looks like a carbon copy of a Pottery Barn sample guest room. Those are dying rooms, not living rooms. Hope's brother died in the war, and they sent his armpits and toenails and nostrils back to the country in a box with a flag draped over it. He was just bits and pieces; he didn

Literature

an isosceles love triangle

If two angles of one triangle are similar to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. Recalling the memory of His geometry makes me sick with longing. That's the real reason I don't call Him every night, don't spend hours stuttering out words onto paper in some tremulous imitation of a love letter. The space I have behind conversation and human interaction is where He really lives, ready for me any time I need to remember. I don't even have to close my eyes before His own stare back at mine, revealing the storm clouds and stars that hover around His midnight-black pupils. The angles of His eyebrows, the slope of His no

emotions with longer names

"Why are you holding a camera?" Her eyes flickered to look at his. She possessed no poker face—her discomfort made him smile, even now. "I don't know," replied a disembodied voice. The sound of his words made his heart beat faster, made the memories come rushing back in some horrific nightmarish image of a carnival ride. She displayed her white teeth to him in an awkward smile, the flashing red light reflected in her eyes. They weren't looking at the camera—they were looking at him. "Talk to me," he said, loving to film the shape of her face in all that silence but knowing her awkward quirks. "I don't know what to say." Her voice was quie

Christian: Not a Label

Yes, I am a Christian. That doesn't mean I'll be showing up on your front porch Waving a Bible in your face screaming "Have you heard? Heard the Good News?" Yes, I am a Christian. That doesn't mean I'll condemn you to hell for drinking that glass of wine, Telling you to treat your body like a temple and keep it pure. Jesus Christ drank wine, didn't he? Yes, I am a Christian. That doesn't mean I'll be picketing your home, your work, your friends Just because your beliefs don't agree with mine. That's a little childish, right? Yes, I am a Christian. That doesn't mean that I devote my Sundays to God, turn off the phone, TV and ligh

PROSE What Spies Do

My dad is a rock. He is solid, he is powerful. He can still pick me up and toss me over his shoulder. He is never seen to cry, he can never be swayed or damaged by opinion. He is a real estate agent, and he pushes those deals and sways those clients with confidence and experience. He flexes his arms at the dinner table when I ask him and points exactly which way it is to the beach or the gun show. He is a tree, a mountain, a thick and formidable presence in any room, in any place, against any person. “He’s late,” my mom said, and pursed her lips through the ste

14. Metal Mettle

I was born with a silver tongue, Copper eyes and a gold heart. A grain of salt in my head and skin of obsidian. The silver has tarnished, But it stays slick with lies told , And untold. And retold. My lips seem bruised and discolored, poisoned by the silver within. The copper has oxidized, Turning blues and greens under the force of the salt water of my tears. And all the strife they have seen. The golden heart starts soft and pure Shining in the sunlight. But it is soft. Malleable All too soon it is dented. And pieces taken. It is better known as Fool's Gold, When it glints in the light to attract another. The grain of salt becomes a pearl that is my brain. Over time it shall mold Rolled within my cavity, an irritant until it is beholden as some fantastic beauty of nature. My skin is obsidian. Beautiful and Smooth Shattering off with any amount of force, Sharply cutting to those that try to touch me wrong. I am a treasure trove, Of precious metals and beautiful things. I may

Making Jam

Poetry is word jam. Boil down the natural sweetness of words And add the sugar of imagery, alliteration, assonance, allusion, figure of speech, meter, and rhyme to taste.

Literature

All's quiet in the deep

Fanged tendrils of forbidden thoughts Twisting with a purpose Squirming to be said, to be made flesh Calling from beyond the veil Moving slowly in the black still water They whisper Fears and doubts, Clouding the edges my eyes in red haze Tempting me with truths And lies. I cannot speak them The words that fester beneath the blade of my tongue Itch for a voice through which to manifest They pester to be named A venom coursing through my veined and slouching heart Daring my lips to part Stop now, cease. You are in violation. There is nothing to see here, Nothing to say. My jaw must stay still And silent Smiling and clenched Do not say the words Do not hint It is betrayal The thoughts have been waiting there forever Wearing me down, Berating patiently Do not speak of them. Their existence is anathema. I have desires I dare not say, Effervescent dreams I could throw it all away I could jump I could fly That was a metaphor That was a lie Never mind, I take it back, Watch my

Description

My friends Mike and Heather brought their daughter Julie and friend Megan over for photographs before their prom. I was quite pleased with the images, I'm no professional, although Wal Greens did wash out one roll of film in developing. Oh well, you can't win every time. Here's just one sample...

It's a beautiful shot! I love their hair color.

How have you been, sir? You've been away for so long (or maybe I have been! But I am back!!)

Hope life has been wonderful for you all through the years of silence!
