Foundations
**Foundations** Miles let out a long, drawn-out sigh. He had finally finished unpacking! He looked over in the corner of his new room at the assortment of empty boxes and sneered at them. Over the years, the sight of empty...
Discorporated
**Discorporated** I wandered through the uneven streets, savoring the cold night wind as it blew against my body, enjoying the way it ruffled my black and white fur. I looked down at the remains of my trench coat. The sleeves were merely...
The Beginning of A Bad Thing
**The Beginning of a Bad Thing** Shannon's walk was brisk and determined as she marched down the hall, clinically white, holding the yellow package tightly to her breast. Her formal purple dress clung to her like November frost to a car...
The Old Man
**The Old Man** "Do not leave me alone." I stared hard at these words, written in decorative cursive that the old man had given to me on a paper that had been torn out of his notepad. I was flabbergasted, knowing full well...
Shadows Dance: Part I
**Shadows Dance** "No. No, this isn't right." But it was right, the evidence was staring Nathan in the face. The thin red fox read the letter again, hardly believing the typed Tahoma-style words. He hoped that reading the...

You can't shut me up I'm in your head screwing with your wires Your followers know my name They know that you're a failure Because I'm a good listener You're afraid of me, and of what I stand for you're afraid that your glorious, eternal system...
The Bombardiers
The Bombardiers There are often times in our lives when the world just throws us a bit of a curveball in an effort to get us to slow down, take things easy, and just let things happen. Sort of karma's way of saying "Stop this shit right now, you...
What I Want
I want to surf the Great Barrier Reef I want to see the sunset in Paris I want to go skiing up in Sweden I want to kill Snooki and blame it on Charlie Sheen I want a lot of things I want to talk philosophy with John Wayne I want to dance with a...
Gotta Love That Bomber
Gotta Love That Bomber It was the best standoff I had ever been a part of. Ten people were standing behind me with guns drawn, pointed at the heart of one little pus-bag who cringed in the corner of his bathroom, his rodent eyes wide with terror,...
