    Taking Stock 2.02

    Filling in this Taking Stock template is usually a struggle, each month. It continues to be a fight between over sharing and being real; so much so that I’ve considered just dropping it- but then there are humans like Gufy , Dee, Kaesa, Cate Kabura, Ciryan… that only come to here to read Taking Stock so […]

  • S

    You are fire; your flames turn me yellow and I liquefy I am watching you ooze from within me You are like goosebumps on a chilly day; and my soul, like jelly layered on skin You feel like sweat; Attempting to go back into pores and I welcome the struggle You are a hug; A […]

    Taking Stock 2.01

    I meant to post this a couple weeks ago. I should apologize, yes? Maybe? No? Look, I am sorry for the delay (yes, that was a shameless Just A Band reference). I will do better next time (I promise).  In the meantime, let’s take some inventory. Making;  content plans and it almost escaped my attention […]

    It’s a beautiful story, really | @Mwass_

    I loved her because she was simple and understated. She was like a plain white v neck; timeless with a hint of unintentional glory and perfect for sunny Sunday afternoons. We had come so far, we were headed even further. I pictured the future with her by my side. Always. Like a pistol on a […]

  • Unlocked

    Peace is an interesting thing, until you realise you no longer have it, you do not miss it. Karen Kingsbury’s Unlocked was that first indicator, that my peace had deserted me… a few chapters in; I admitted to myself that I wanted that peace back. I happened to come across Unlocked in a weird manner […]

    Ya’aburnee |by @manlymanharry

    Emotion is a strong word. And so too is the word landslide. A landslide is an avalanche, but in a place that knows not snow. It is earth, rock, debris from the dreams you didn’t follow through, dinosaur bones, and, death. Emotion and landslide met in a dimly lit bar, hit it off and then […]

    Taking Stock 2.0

    Taking Stock has been this template that I have been filling in (thanks to MeetMeatMikes) for a little over and a half years. For half that time, I considered dropping the template from the blog. Which is sort of funny, because after I lost the old site and all the content in it ‘Taking Stock’ […]
