Bug Party

If I was a bug I’d be a beetle. A Japanese beetle, invasive and not necessary. Nothing special to look at, just a beetle looking beetle. I’m sure you’ve seen hundreds of them without batting an eye. I would study the best trees and blades of grass. I’d know all the best bugs around. I’d know all the best bug clubs and all the bugs would know me as the bug plug. I wouldn’t have to worry about gas in my car or what’s happening in politics today, because there’s a bug party tonight and everyone’s invited.

    Ghostly Dreams of a First Love

    Sometimes I dream of never meeting you. I dream of the dates I would’ve never experienced, the love thrown in the void.

     

    Would I even know what love is without you? Would I still believe in fate, or true love?

    Home

    Home is mom’s Shepard pie and ginger snaps. 

    Home is the one scent you can never quite place, it appears out of nowhere to return you to age 6 on the swings yelling ‘higher grandpa, higher’ it yearns to be bottles and relived.
