Drew last shared their writing true mountain banjo
when the snow outside's the only coat the town could claim,
you gon wish that mine’s the name you could blame
when the still of night cries louder than any man-made refrain,
you gon wish that mine's the one rang through the rain

you gon wish that i'm the one god won’t explain

Watching

In each mirror before him he saw himself holding a knife. He looked down to find his hands empty.
They mirrored his step as he circled his enclosed pen, bearing sneers, grotesque expressions that did not at all match the refinement of their ballroom attire. As he neared any...

Rambling

When something in your bones reaches out to swell, to fill the scene in front of you, you know you're somewhere special.

A rise to the occasion, a step on a new path, as sure-footed as the old.

A plan in mind whose pieces all fall into order from the corner of...

A Value

Fumbling in the dark for some spare change, or what else, you brush against a warm, metallic object, smooth to the touch.
In your bag, too, which was odd as you keep a rather tight ship, as it were.
The metal feels like it belongs, yet no use...

I'm not going to write a story today, he said, opening another beer. I'm going to break something.
I'm going to take something I've taken for granted, and grant it its final reprieve. Break my pens, snap them over a fire and let the ink dot the embers a...

Grandma Borman

Hate was spun with a twist of one's own fate, Grandma Borman always said, for she knew in her heart that the worst of us came out in the calmest of winds, not in terrible storms.
With a twist of her good hip, she propelled herself off of the...

Sun

Rain is nature's mood lighting, fitting as easily a twist of laughter as a pane of tears falling to meet its element on the wet earth below.
Rain is nature's drunken gaze, when the streetlights and lamp posts bleed their colors onto the grounds and walls before you, and you know...

A Night To Remember

As he tightened his grip, the ticket in his palm crumpled into a bowtie as his eyes again pored over the message on his phone. A dismal frustration clouded him, everywhere and nowhere at once. He glanced at his watch again, then back at the clock on his phone, as...

It’s Still Summer

Dew is always the first sight of fall. It invades the summer morning with its charismatic veneer, softening your mind to the ideas of crisp, cool winds and quieter sunlight.
When we were younger we saw the signs more prevalently, more often, on the path to school, trudging through the wet...
