GARDEN OF GETHSEMANE (prologue, chapter 1 and chapter 2)

It was thirty-seven minutes past noon. Yes, noon. Arthur could tell it was by the way the sun pricked the back of his neck, but he lost track of time and didn’t quite feel the thirty-seven minutes that passed. He was always like that when his attention was on his garden. Heat was a predominant...

Who the hell are you people? Episode 2: Six Bucks A Monkey

I seem to have overshot the mark on this one and there is just no goddamn way I'm going to be able to turn this into a clever exposé narrative. Here are the results of my brief interview with the imitable $6/monkey: 1. Are you anticipating a rise in the cost of monkeys? Always. The cost of quality...

So you weren't accepted to Hogwart School of Wizardry...

Fear not! There is an alternative... providing you are a gay man, posses an enormous cock and willing to suck the dean on a regular basis... oh and you don't really need a broom but don't forget your lube and make sure you can come at least three times in a row because otherwise you might get an...

Misc. Writing

Metro can be kind of ridiculous sometimes. I submitted a story to the college lit and art magazine in November and never heard back from them. I just assumed that nothing got in and I went on with my life. I ate ice cream. I watched Two Week's Notice. I had a good cry about it. But I got an e-mail...

First History - Mathew Strong

Chapter 2 - Cave of Treasures Six Years Later It was cold, just past 1 am. The wind was blowing outside; whistling through the trees and the fence gate outside the slightly open window could be heard clacking in its latch. Mathew Strong lay in his bed staring wide awake up at the ceiling above him,...

Tales from the Epiphany of Youth, Volume Two : Kansas City, MO - Autumn, 1984

My birthday was private in our new house, our new city, our new life. There were none of my friends from preschool; nothing but my nuclear family and our big, new house. Alone, perhaps, but not lonely, I was content with my surroundings and young enough to have no attachments to the people I would...

Backyard Nursery For several weeks...

Backyard Nursery For several weeks we have heard the rather noisy chirping of a baby bird from sun up to sun down. This youngster was safely tucked away in the ivy just behind the large tree fern that grows in the corner of our little city garden. Everyday he chirped and mama and papa sparrow flew...

When was the last time you interacted with any sort of wildlife? Submitted by warpedreality. Last night I was sitting in the greenhouse with my cat Colonel enjoying a bowl of Saddleman's Blend in the good Peterson briar when we heard the oddest noise. It was a noise we often heard in the greenhouse,...

More of the Park

Patrick met me after school and we walked back through the park again. There is a Thai festival on this weekend in the boulevard near Yoyogi park, so there were hundreds more people about than usual. I thought visiting a festival sounded like a fun idea, but once again was reminded that I despise...

Sushi Shock

Today’s not really a holiday, but since The Showa Emperor’s birthday fell on a Sunday this year, people didn’t get an extra day off work, so the government declared today to be a sort of bonus day-off. While Aki went of to her parents’ house to help them pack and get ready for the move to...

Eat, walk, repeat

My apologies, guys. I didn’t mean to let a whole week go by before telling you more about my Paris trip. Settling back into home kept me busier than I’d planned. But yes, now, where were we? One day last week, I was exchanging e-mails with a friend who is headed to Paris for the first time this...
