  24. I Threw A Rock Into A Pond

    I threw a rock into a pond and watched the circles form around

  25. In Real Life

    There are so many things I’d like to share with you, so many things, all around us, hidden in the beauty we don’t watch, in the peace we don’t seek, in the dark of the mornings.

  26. The Ghost Of Tomorrow

    You’ll be pulled in the wake of the truth future brings, where the ghost of reality waits in the wings

  27. Softness

    Softness brushes the glass pane, steadily patting at the window with delicate plush soles, the kind that make intricate embroidery patterns on freshly fallen snow, but no sounds, no sounds at all, ever.

  28. Oracle

  29. Do I Have a Bridge to Sell You!

    Do I have a bridge to sell you! Want to make a super deal? Most exclusive, most superior, Just the best and hugely real. I’ve got watches, I’ve got purses, I’ve got guys to fix your bid, I’ve got people who’ll procure you Anything you’ll ever need.

  30. Project Double - Decima

    You were, until now and the days yet to be, the best thing and worst thing that happened to me. My soul’s torn to shreds by the feelings I host, I’m grateful and hateful and fearing the worst. I’m shrouded in wonder and keeping the fast while mourning the things that are lost to the past. Excited...

  31. Breaking

    Sky camera shows why it’s best not to watch: this simple trick makes history dangerous, scrambling to recover experience. Search underway for missing iceberg the size of London seeks to rejuvenate urgent care. Study finds center of weight loss surgery; no one rendered aid. Soccer team magical…

  32. The Miracle

    What do I know about the world, a lowly human, and why should it matter? The world is music and wonder, singing to itself jingles and lullabies, and masterful symphonies.

  33. Moonlight

    I spun from the moon threads of light and wove them to fashion my sight. My soul was reflected inside, revealed by the scant light of night.

  34. Dispassionate Clear

    I’m too tired for insight, too strong for solace, too clear for words, too resonant for silence, too old for wonder, too lucid.

  35. Here Be Dragons

    I’m on the edge of existence, looking out at nothing, the substantial, rich, eclectic nothing of which all reality is woven.

  36. Breathing

    There is always something to distract us, something urgent, usually unpleasant, so I’m going to say this really fast, before I lose your attention: last night I heard the roar of the planet spinning on its axis, the deafening breath of an enormous creature.

  37. I See

    I could buy the story that the world is wicked That mankind is desperate And alone.

  38. Alive

    The soft breeze that touched me has opened the sky and sun dappled brightness like honey, but who has the time for the birds in the trees and genially watching the bunnies?

  39. Echoes

    I call for my soul inside the soaring chambers of my soul, and their tall walls and vaults reverberate and multiply my voice into thousands of new me’s, also lost, also searching.

  40. Envy

    Nature feels freer just before the morning, by shadow of darkness, by silver moon beam.

  41. Love Always Is

    My spirit is heavy with the time I squandered driving in first gear

  42. One

    A mirror in time my life has become, the doors to my soul open wide. What couldn’t I be, what couldn’t I find when boundaries fell to the side?

  43. Marooned

    As you get old you start pondering on the meaning of words like purpose, or love, or fate, or free will, and they haunt you with their reverberating nature, they turn up the dial on your mind until your hair hurts, they tilt your compass.

  44. In Utero

    I’m streaming a river of feelings and naught, a river that weaves through my thought.

  45. Groundhog Day

    I hide my pain, I ride the rain, I exercise my life in vain. I see the shame, I fight the wane, I cry out from the tortured strain. My light is tamed, my soul is stained, the gladness in my heart is chained. My love is maimed, my self is slain, I'll fight till my last breath is drained.

  46. Grace

    I could have died a thousand ways or not have lived at all. I could have sold my happiness for envy, rage, and gall. I could have drowned in grief and tears and given up my soul. I could have followed on my fears to falter, fail and fall.

  47. As I Am I Bare My Soul

    As I am I will go to my Maker, I don’t need to pretend to be more. I stand as I am from now on. As I am is enough. As I am I bare my soul.

  48. Who What When Where Why

    There's no one new except for me in this extraordinary life; no guidance, no instruction card, no inkling of wrong or right.
