Dedication through ink
Either beautiful or ugly
Kissing every needlepoint
Inhaling its memories
Tasting the salt from thy skin
Then comes the monster
The loaded up “man”
Skin like an oil spill
Someone who doesn’t know himself
Instead forfeits his beauty, to be “famous”
“Outstanding”
My eyes weep for you boy
My heart hurts because of you boy
You’re tearing me apart boy
I used to think [...]
Hatred of Meaningless Tattoos
My Four Words, Your One
We stood at the entrance to the park. Closed.
Just my luck. We stood for a moment looking around. The sky was overcast and the wind blew steadily. I could only look at her briefly so I wouldn’t give anything away. I’m sure she knew this was special. We practically sprinted out of the house to [...]
Go Forth
A collection of people from around the world that have bettered their lives or the lives of others after a significant turn of events. A remarkable short film that brings so much emotion and humanity to the table. Visit duckduckcollective.com.

A Road Forgotten
The drive to Maine was a bit more than I expected. It was literally a trip down memory lane. Every passing sign and highway junction was a memory that I could recall along with a smile. As a child and teenager I would spend most Thanksgiving’s with my Grandparents in Washington, ME. It is a [...]
Happy Holidays
Dear Readers,
I’d like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! I am currently in Maine visiting some family and enjoying some quality time with those I love for the next few days. I hope everyone drives safely over the holiday. Eats lots of turkey and tell lots of good stories.
That’s all for now. Check back soon!

You’ll Thank Me Later
Whats New? Well, I was just poking around one of my favorite sites and found this pretty rad site. Seems that someone has taken it upon themselves to bring some raw humor to the table. Seems like my kind of blog. From stuff they have gathered online, to everyday situation that they have come across, [...]
Dreamscapes
As of late I have been sleeping pretty well, but it came with a price. A price of not really understanding the dreams I am having. Anyways, my dreams have come extremely vivid to me in the destruction of the world around me. Mountains burning, dark skies, earthquakes, volcanoes and ultimately my death. It’s strange [...]
Imaginary Love
All of the lights in the world don’t shine as bright as you. A lifetime of joy and happiness is nothing compared to one minute with you. The straightest line is crooked compared to you. The highest pixel is too blurry to capture the beauty in you. The most potent drug couldn’t get me as [...]
The Dangling Life
Do you remember that morning you woke up and realized, everything has changed? This gradual process has finally taken its toll. I came from that and got to this. I didn’t see it this way; although, I’m not sure I truly remember the futuristic picture I had in my head. Clearly, it wasn’t etched in [...]
Kristian Hammerstad
Now this is what I call awesome. I know, I know, no one cares what I think. But you wouldn’t be here reading this if you didn’t, am I right? Anyways, I came across this artist while browsing one of my favorite blogs. They rarely ever update, but when they do they have some really great [...]
