    • My Favorite Word
      • I’m not sure I have a favorite word, for what are words by themselves but dull lonely syllables? I once had a teacher that said words are like buckets, they are only worth what you are willing to pour into them. Words are not adequate to express some feelings, there are never enough of them to describe who I wish to become or the color of the sky, but in some ways they are our very salvation. Words are a funny thing; they flow from my mouth when I wish to stay silent and stick in the back of my throat when I’m desperate to spill my entire being... so no, I do not have a favorite word. I have a favorite feeling, a dream of how the world would be right, but words would only cheapen these things. Perhaps it is because these are secrets, deep, primitive longings that have stirred within the souls of mortals since before a time of words… and in that way, I am grateful for the absence of letters and sounds to muddle things.

    • Watch your back
      • From the viewpoint of the spider:
        Look into my glossy eyes and give me one good reason you have for killing me beyond the fact that I scare you. Because frankly, if you want to play that game then maybe I should bite you now, quick and easy because you scare me too… then where would you be? You intrigue me, human girl. Why have you not raised an arm in my direction, why do you stare with such intent and interest upon my hairy body? Ahh. Maybe you are one of the few who appreciate our beauty; you see I am the voice of a million brothers and sisters who keep your world in motion. We eat the wing-ed pests that gnaw into your dreams and what do we get? A personal thank you from the bottom of your shoe. I’m not going to beg you to spare my life, that is your business, but before you kill me or any of my kind remember that we are a vengeful species and we are everywhere. Watch your back.

    • The Kara I Do Not Know
      • My dreams are an outpouring of my everything. Deepest desires, greatest fears, secret wishes, daily conversations, inside jokes... when I sleep my brain has no rules of where it is allowed to wander; it isn't forced to try to comprehend why the Roman empire fell or fit the mold I try to make it follow. At night, when the Kara I know sleeps, the Kara I will never fully comprehend experiments, she tweaks, she watches my reactions to various dreams and she creates new ideas. Sometimes, she looks out for me and in a rare moment of kindness she lets me dream the dreams that make my heart happy but the rest of the time she just does as she pleases. And I put up with it because what else can you do?

    • No one ever...
      • No one ever mentions the feelings that hurt. No one likes to talk about the loneliness and the ache that comes when you have no one on the day that celebrates love. What do you do when everyone around you is smiling and being held... and you are smiling your fake smile and crossing your arms over the nothingness that defines you. What. What. What. ??? I'm being a killjoy? Yeah. I really am. I get it, I understand, but you obviously don't. If this holiday is for you, then it's for you. If it makes you feel loved then I could not be more happy for you. But I? I will be lonely this Valentines Day, even though I will admit it to no one but you. Maybe someday, like all you rose-holders, I too will have someone to hold my hand and buy me chocoloates, but until then I will make due. I will be sad, I will be lonely but I will be my own person and I will try to find happiness. Take that.
