  • Natural Disasters

    “Aaaaaaaachooooooooo” The world all around me shakes as my sneeze erupts. As do the volcanos across Hawaii. A lot of people blame me for their problems.

  • The Voice Says…

    Good morning Control Centre. How are things up top? “Up top? When have you ever referred to me as that? Do not do it again. Status report: functioning as per usual. You’re my best friend!

  • Junkyard Adventures

    I hate people. I’m more content with life amongst the trash abandoned by others. The junkyard is my home. I can use whatever materials I want, I don’t need to pay the government stuff all to live here, and I have no neighbours to annoy me. It may not look like much, but I ain’t…

    Emma walks home at a steady pace hours after the study hall closes. A brush of orange paints the skyline as the sun is slowly gets dimmer. The only noise coming from her ear buds and whisking her away from the world. The man looms in the shadows and sees a young girl alone: who…

Especially playing with…

    The rain trickles down my window pane. I am thankful I am shielded by the warmth inside. A thought slips into my consciousness, but these thoughts only occur when it rains. Something in me is telling me to run outside with my arms open wide to the sky and embrace the rain. Something in me…
