Brian...This is intriguing! I'm waitng for the next chapter, eagerly!
Very good work!
In the Walls (part II) (Short Story) - 3/8/2005 8:06:21 PM
Brian, you have an intriguing story started. I think you have detracted from the suspense and urgency by using a passive voice (was having trouble sleeping, decision was being mulled, number were being stretched off, numbers were reading etc) and by giving us too much unimportant information between the real action lines (the part about falling asleep in class before the clock clicked over). I would suggest you work changing to an active voice and cutting unnecessary words, because I think you have a talent for suspense writing buried in these words.

Unnatural Selection (Poetry) - 7/13/2014 7:52:44 AM
There are certain amount of serendipity involved in unnatural selection. While I'm having trouble fathoming your meaning, I have often written that at the time we stopped hunting and gathering, our species stopped improving with natural selection, and embarked on using technologies correcting genetic deficiencies like myopia and hearing loss, creating a continuing degeneration of the human species by passing on more and more flawed DNA to the next generation. While there are still those with genius, overall human intelligence may be much lower for humans than it was at 10,000 BC.

Nicely done,Brian! Welcome back.
When in Roam (Poetry) - 6/26/2014 7:38:12 AM
A lot said in these words. Satirical sarcasm. We work to consume. Because we consume we must work. Many just work through the day and do what the boss says without really working. Just getting along with whatever Rome they are in.
It's a keeper!

Free From Form (Poetry) - 9/27/2012 10:47:16 AM
That jet black hair and electric smile
Like the ash of a cigarette that brought the cancer
It says it wouldn’t and maybe even believes it didn’t
These riddles and their responses, the first signs
Like knowing you are ill yet not knowing what it is
Feeling like a hypochondriac
Then, when the immune system is spent
It strikes at its worst, takes it all over
The diagnosis finally revealed
In stage 4 it’s terminal
And you have pneumonia
About to go into a coma
No winning this
That Jet black hair and electric smile
Like cancer it waited it out, mostly silent
While it infected the whole
It finally succeeded in its quest, it usually does
Took out the whole body and the whole family
It usually does
Now time to heal, for those that survive
As best we can

Beautiful Brian, may we share a moment in time now together... here... on the in-breath or the out-breath, we're breathing in this moment... no other, but now.. I'm doing it with you as i type this now, as you will be when you read this now... and it's a present, we need to be in it to see, feel, and know the gift of it, this very special thing binding us all together... no other exists but now... and it's so precious, every other moment we've experienced or are yet to are just a memory, a dream. This one is real. Thank you so much for causing me to celebrate it with you!
All of us united! Shine On!!

Sometimes the art or achievement you make is a foundation that awaits its moment. Perhaps visions can be enjoyed by its creator, even when the world isn't yet ready for its author.

Wonderful allegory and metaphor employed here, Brian. This is excellent. Very expressive and evocative, enjoyed immensely. Lovely stuff, indeed.
