The Song of the Past
I hate it when people say that time flows like a river. It simply isn’t true. You can kneel down by a river, and watch it part around rocks and ripple when something falls in. You can reach out a hand and scoop up some water, and watch a small part of the river go still in your hands. A river is tangible. You can manipulate it. You can take a small pocket of it away and watch it go still. You cannot do this with time. There’s no way to watch how time works, how it curves around space and ripples with events. You can’t reach out to touch time, to grab a piece of it away and watch it halt. I wis...
Detox
It was a ‘today’. I am saying ‘today’ cause today is like any other day, be it Sunday or Thursday. Five hundred and fifty-nine hours have passed since the lock down.

For most people, they move for good reasons, like their family is growing or to be closer to relatives, but for me that wasn’t the case.

It started with us becoming study partners and i guess you could say; we became friends, but not the type of friend you’d see out of school though, you know the ones where you literally just have “school” in common?. At first he seemed like a rea...
Ice Cream With Grandpa
On September 24, 1981, I was home alone. The doorbell rang, my grandpa was standing there with a container of chocolate ice cream in his hand and a big ole' smile on his face. My dog was jumping up and down with excitement and inside so was I. I grabbed two bowls and the ice cream scoop, and we went out on the patio to eat our ice cream. When our ice cream had all been eaten, he pulled our well-worn set of dominoes from his right jacket pocket and his pipe from the left. We played dominoes for hours, talking and laughing. “What are you learning these days in school?” “Just stuff for college...
