Lessons
Don’t judge a book by its cover. Or the 100 or so pages you read. The reason being is that it could have a great ending. Damn my impatience!
Untitled
A tiny rocket shoots into the air of the night sky. The picture perfect scene is more spectacular when the immensely dilated Sputnik explodes, inviting a spectacle of furious gold lines piercing the darkness around it. Countless other rockets arrive to support the blitzkrieg of the night, their numbers unknown, but a force in the dozens is sensed by numerous wisps of smoke trails and whistle...
The Blinking Line

Writer's Block
An embargo placed on my thoughts and ideas. A recession of useless thoughts inflated to complete frivolity. A flame once kindled to the sun’s veracity now dwindled into light emitted by an eight watt light bulb.
Bam!
I’m gonna attempt to post something on here everyday. It might be trivial, it might be important. And no, it’s not a fucking resolution. My year didn’t need resolving.
EDIT: I changed the title from “1” to “Bam!” because a numbering of these posts would make the year drag on ever so slow
