Instance – At War With Silence
Is it a result of my own actions, the consequences of which remain unbeknownst to me that I live in this quintessentiality? My luck, not to be reckoned with - For it continues to beckon my patience - Its tolerance degenerating, and my threshold for it is shaken, as I persist through this reality. In …

Concussion RefleXIons: Welcome!
The doctor wrote me a note that day… (not something I thought I would ever need again after finishing school). The note said something along the lines of, “under no circumstance should she be allowed back to work in the next 7 days until she comes back the following Monday and is cleared after re-evaluation.”
Instance – Fear
Dear Fear, I have wasted much of my life because of you. You are the idea which perpetually hangs over and onto me: purely a notion which I seem to have invented. You are the tension I feel in the racing of my mind which only shows me all the treacherous possibilities that lie ahead, …
