Like a mouse running on a wheel, you don’t know why you’re not getting anywhere. You run harder and faster; it gets maniacal. Every so often you get depressed and fed up, so you take a break, a breather; you stop running and rest for a while. You guess that that’s the way it is,…

It’s always there Loneliness is a large bowl of yellow custard that you have no one to share with. Cooked and topped with cinnamon, served with black tea and honey. Decadent and dense with caloric value, it’ll settle in one belly, instead of two or three. * No one is themselves lately; we might be…

After having graduated from my English literature (and liberal studies) program in college, I’ve come to realize that I’m no longer tied down to the idea of what I thought I had to do. I’m no longer tied down to the idea of chasing a dream or a life mission (or a career) that does…
