A Show —

We all sat, luxuriating on the couches, our bellies full with delicious foods. Randomly, Hammer subtly gestured to the seating area directly across from us, about twenty feet away. With his body turned, blocking the sight line of the foreign assemblage, he spoke. “They’re looking at us.” Indeed, when I peaked my head to my […]

Poetic’s Spring Break —

I’m taking a vacation. I’d planned for this year to be amazing: lots of events, traveling all over. Though Winter Fire was my first event this year, it feels like my real adventure is just about to start. At 6am on Sunday, I’ll be flying on my first plane in eleven years. First I’m visiting PrincessA […]

Three Moments —

1) “Do you know how to coil rigging rope?”Do I know how to coil rope? Hmm…One of my projects at work today was, simply, to coil rope. But not just any rope. 3/4 inch braided black nylon, with a blue accent. Two coils. 150′ in length, each. They sat on the warehouse’s concrete floor, two […]

Don’t Shit Where You Eat —

You can’t make this shit up. Me. My Ex. In a slow elevator. He stood towards the front, staring at the doors. I leaned against the side wall, looking down at the floor.  I happened to gaze upon his shoes. They were Timberlands. I’d never seen him in them before. Brown, dirtied, nowhere near new. […]

Going To The Well —

Sometimes I’m lost for what to say. Sometimes I go to the well and it’s like, “Um, what do you want? I’ve given you plenty. Leave me alone.” Sometimes I’ve just got nothing. When that has happened in the past, I’ll end up writing a piece of erotica. Frankly, for me, it’s easy. I think of […]

Passing By —

Twice in the past month I’ve almost run into the Ex. He is still employed by a company I occasionally work for. Both times it was when I was driving, dropping off rental equipment, and, if I had lagged at the rental house for but a few minutes, we would have interacted. It’s been two […]

Bare It All —

I was nervous. Speaker after speaker stepped up to the mic and recounted story after amazing story. One man spoke about his first ever visit to a bathhouse in Ireland. Another recounted his brief but wondrous life as a child porn star. A beautiful woman spoke about finding love when she least expected it. A […]

Bio —

Recently I’ve had to try to emcompass all that I am as a person into one paragraph. I submitted a short story, “Daddy’s Girl” to an erotic anthology (which will let me know if my work has been accepted some time in April). I also used that paragraph as my staff bio for the upcoming […]

First Day Back —

I woke up to an alarm today, a day which will not be full of fun. Unlike previous years, I have come to a point in my career (wow, I can call it that now) that I get work during our slow season. Not a huge amount; I won’t be swamped like I will be […]

A Moment At Work —

He asked me what I thought of the bar. I said it looked mildly obscene. He huffed a sort of laugh. He knew my humor; this was nothing new. We slowly, gracefully, made our way to the back left corner of the room, delicately cutting in between guests. We stood, quietly watching everyone mingle. We […]
