  • THE MARCH TO FREEDOM

    The man trapped inside would remain a prisoner until early November, or if his captors became hard-pressed—terminated. The choice was his. The small basement level apartment held the man captive deep inside the Washington Highlands area of D.C. There was no public access to the red-tagged building, so foot traffic was almost nonexistent. Only those with less than righteous thoughts ventured into the neighborhood, and any attempts of drawing their attention to his predicament were met by well-dressed men with guns. The hopper window, located a good arm’s length above his six-foot frame, provid...9qFone door

This will likely be the most excitement they’ve seen since that first day when I ro...9qFone door

    Mrs.Bloomer

    I was five when I first met Mrs. Bloomers. She was sitting in that wooden rocking chair. I never liked that rocking chair, there was Just something...off about it. Little did www.onedoor.ccI know seven years later, on that very same day, would be the last I saw of her, and her rocking chair. It was late October, and everyone was getting ready for Halloween. I walked down my block to Mrs. Bloomers' house, and was suprised to see a light grey minivan parked in her always-empty driveway. I was confused at first, wondering who's car that was, but I assumed it was a relative or a friend. I slowly walked up the s...9qFone door
