Walking StickNeatly coating the floor in thin white trails, woven into floorboards like cotton twine, sunbeams snake their way across hardwood. / Books scream to be read & my yellowed pages ache to detail my experience as a widowed reader of time. / Magazines pile, while my simple hands grow a day older.

GoldfishThe blood flowing through my heart tickles as I lay in bed. / I have one wish: to protect me from my head, swimming with scaly goldfish. / I think, I thought, I remember.

Lily PondA coy fish in a pond with nowhere to swim nor splash. The clear water allowed him to see in all four directions, though there was nothing to catch the eye but four concrete walls and bunches of lily pads. / A tiny spectator circled the grass surrounding the pond. She looked as though she were only 5 years old. A second later she was hastily ripping a lily pad from its roots. Upon discovering no magic beneath its belly, she dropped it and began on her way. / The lifeless plant rested at the ponds edge for weeks before the wind carried it back to its place. It was somehow different now, wrinkled and stretched at the stem, though it floated uniform among the rest. The coy hid in the shadows created by the walls, and watched.
