Harvard And MIT Join Forces To Become Juggernaut... →
There is some hope for education after all.

Timely
Do not stand at my grave and weep,I am not there; I do not sleep.I am a thousand winds that blow,I am the diamond glints on snow,I am the sun on ripened grain,I am the gentle autumn rain.When you awaken in the morning’s hushI am the swift uplifting rushOf quiet birds in circling flight.I am the soft star-shine at night.Do not stand at my grave and cry,I am not there; I did not die. Mary Frye 1932...

Love Poems
Love, You Got Me Good
by Ross Gay
Honeybunny, for you, I’ve got a mouthful of soot. Sweetpea, for you, I always smell like blood. Everything that touches me, Lovemuffin, turns to salt. When I think of you I see fire. When I dream of you I hear footsteps on bones. When I see you I can feel the scythe’s smooth handle in my palm. Love, you got me standing at attention. Clutching...

Poem
Emily Dickinson inspired writing exercise.
EMILY SUTTON
In throes for total control,
Cross fire sparks my Marlboro—
Armored in toxic smoke
I’ll choke the only opponent:
Intoxication by
Bass, bonfire, beer ball.
Balance! My thumping brain
Knocks the wall in sync.
Wild night ends in
a colorless fog with
An odor that tends to
Evoke hangovers.
its been a while
Thanks for following me.
I’m a barista at a busy coffee shop. I’m brainstorming April Fool’s Day Pranks.

Stolen Self Assurance
One glance at us told the story of our previous night. The elegant black sheer hose I had worn beneath a tight black romper now made intimate striped designs up my calves and thighs, revealing bruises with no known origin. What had been smoky eye shadow and precise cat-eye liner now gave the impression we had taken a few successful jabs at each other. Her blond hair didn’t disguise the crunchy...
Short Story. I Need a Title
Each day he is becomes more feeble. The stern gray eyes I barely remember have become vacant slits peeking out of the heavy folds of his lids. His cheeks hang in bags, framing his pouted lips, mouthing his eggs like cud. His white furred crown is a halo in the glare of the sunrise. Mr. Walter and I mirror each other’s stare, sharing a sense of urgency. My tattooed hand is painted clay in his...
art journal ideas.
I’m trying to decide whether or not to incorporate my creative writing assignments into it or not. I think I’ll post my short stories here. A collection of everything. Then use this to weed out excerpts I want in it. The art journal is made completely of reused materials, so pages with art on it will just be on the back of printed pages. Some can be drafts of the assignments, but I...
