Blending into the shadows, I prowl the night. Like the stars in the sky, I look down upon the world from above. When I am outside, the stars guide me to places where the moon can not be seen. There, I wait patiently for my prey. Leaping from a b...

It was a compunction that had no real reason. The sun was setting and the moon had begun to rise but all I could think was that I needed to drive. I'm not sure why I needed so desperately to get out and feel the motor rev and the vibration of whee...

It was nice out. Warm but not hot, a perfect day with just enough clouds to occasionally block the sun with a soft filter. I knew it was going to be a long day, but driving in the car, I knew it would also be fun. I rolled down my window and enjoy...

On the Boardwalk: conclusion

Oh where, Oh where did it go?

A Lesson Learned II:A time not so long ago

2006-12-16T22:46:59Z
