The clouds cast their shadows, shaping the greenery into muted colors and grey sentiments. Yet it was not to deter my good friends, who exclaimed that the day was still one for exploration and a walk. In that moment my vision board stuck out in my mind, black and white photos on a poster board …

A Foreigner Called Kindness
“That’s a nice thing you are doing there,” they say, my pack open and ready to deposit trail trash within. It strikes me as a cavalcade of tourists pass me how that sounds in my head, like praising a toddler for cleaning up after playing with their toys. The past few years have left me …
Snowscape
One of my favorite memories was alone in the cold. The fluffed park was keeping my heartbeat slow, the cap on my head doing the same for my mind. The circumstances of how this came to pass are hazy, much in the same way dreams plunge yourself into vivid mindscapes; once you awake, the dream …
From The Deep
My ankles were cold, though soon they would go numb. My focus however was in the sound I was making. Thrum. Sheeee. Thrum. Sheeee. And finally the release. The fly at the end of my rod lazily flew ten feet before making a plop onto the surface of the shining lake. The sun blazed above, …
Burst of Bellowing
An acknowledgement of weakness is perhaps one of the greatest obstacles we are confronted with in our lives.

Bleached blonde hair long enough to hide his earrings and with a scowling disposition, Goro was obviously a delinquent, and untouchable at Hayasaka High. Everyone knew that wherever …
Impact
It was two in the morning, and it had started to rain. But no, this was not the start of a grand adventure. I was simply up and engrossed, an animated show fresh on my mind. Simply through walking and breathing I was calming down from the artistic high I was on. I can compare …
Crest of the Dawn
Light shines into the windows, the ghost’s of conversation revealed while the living remain alone. Here the pall of silence is deafening. Shadows stalk what was once opulent and alive, while desperate lives hunt. Luxuries redefine themselves, and necessities become all the more precious.Conversations once common, muzzled with masks in another’s presence. Earth continues to …
Salivation: Challenge by Fire
Our journey was reaching it’s conclusion; while myself and my fellow companions enjoyed the fruits and splendor of the island, there were few that which made a substantial impact. While the grinding of raw sugar cane deposited in an icy cup was a highlight, alongside once again being scared by our head chief while once …
