  1. Japanese Reactors and Media Hyperventilation

    I’m not going to say that the problem with the reactors in Japan is not serious, but really the media is driving me bonkers. My local paper called a similar reactor across from us in New Jersey “the evil twin” of the Japanese reactors and speculated on what could happen if such a catastrophe happened here. Give me a break. We don’t exactly get 9.1 earthquakes and tsunamis on the northeast coast of the US. The news across the TV is constantly leading to worst case scenarios, scenarios which aren’t ...

  2. Heretic Heart

    I got the idea to write this from a song I heard, though I don't know what it is called. It is inspired by my personal experiences with a narcissist. Imagery was inspired by a book I am reading.

    Heretic Heart

    Upon your tongue
    is the alchemy
    that turns iron into gold,
    weaving truth into lies
    or unspun lies materialize
    as truth.

    Your eyes, the philosophers stone,
    a vault of ancient knowledge,

  3. Applying for colleges

  4. The Voice Behind the Door - a poem

    I found this going through my stuff today, I'm not sure I'm entirely fond of it. I rarely write poetry for anything other than passing time so I don't mind writing bad poetry .

    Life pinned to a bed, is a
    Peculiar joy:
    Hot breath, suppressing weight,
    The heartbeat rising-

    KEEP IT DOWN!

    Does he guess the
    Source of the excitement?

    They're loud and

  5. The Beloved

    Aging with restlessness

    I was fooled by my years

    Nothing comes after the waiting

    Waiting is all there is.



    “How dare you accuse your father?”

    Jesus said with contempt

    I could still taste his spit

    “Sir, how come I have nothing on me? Where am I?”

    His eyes with the
