She cried out to God, my mocking screams causing her eyes to open wider, those eyes mimicking her mouth as my screams ridiculed her words. Fear was there, in her eyes, and all I could do was smile and nod, so that she knew. Knew that her fear was not misplaced, that her screams could …

Neo-Nazi
The Neo-Nazi, shaven head and camouflage shorts. His dirty wife beater contrasting his dirty black paratrooper boots. Boots that are laced up with clean, bright red and white laces, leaving no doubt that his people alone shall inherit the Earth.

Little Beetle
Following a little beetle as it moved with purpose, I wondered about it’s red markings and shiny black shell, while it led me around the driveway. I thought, “it is funny that I am being led by this little bug”, as it scurried along it’s way. And I questioned it, aloud, what it though about …
Linkin Park- Hybrid Theory Collection
Points Of Authority- You love my broken pride. Take away my life and share the hurt to get back at me. Forfeit what you’ve learned. Cover your name, your shame you love. Papercut- I can’t stop the voice, it laughs every time I close my eyes, it points out all my mistakes, all that I …
