by Ella Kleinman Staring didn't accomplish much. The peanut butter would win that contest. It could have been anyone who left it out. Everyone had free range of the kitchen last night, I'm sure there were various cases of the munchies. But I hated that midnight peanut butter toker. The morning - well, my shifted … Continue reading The Problem with Peanut Butter

DWI Revelations
by Michael Drone Staring didn’t accomplish much when I was faced with the mountain I have been climbing for the past three months. I am going to get super vulnerable and honest, and tell you of failures of business, the arrest, and what happened next. Strap in, this is about to spiral out of control, … Continue reading DWI Revelations
Remaining
By Adrian Day Staring didn't accomplish much - the line drawn from my eyes to hers was taut (if it could be touched) and now she, in the closing crowd disappears and with her, takes my gaze and staring didn't accomplish much but my eyes on that space will remain...

Maybe It Could
by Alec Meyer Staring didn't accomplish much (I thought at first), but maybe it could. If I stand here long enough, If I let enough wind blow in my face, If I let the mud squish between my toes.
Pieces of Heaven
By Scott Esh Staring didn't accomplish much So instead I stepped down the staircase of clouds to the place I call home. A place hidden among the blossoms where my own pieces of heaven unfold. I take my heart for a walk through the forest bringing my inner sunshine despite the weather. Staring never accomplished … Continue reading Pieces of Heaven
