The Depression Room
I get it. Cleaning can be overwhelming. If you’re like me, you make excuses. You get busy; you get depressed. I’m one of those people that surrounds their necessities around their bed so they don’t have to leave it. With that being said, you can only imagine what the rest of the spaces look like.

The Runaway
I could feel the heat- dancing across my skin like his fingers had the night before. This was a bright, blinding world he gave me- nothing like Dull Creek, Oklahoma. Out here you could finally make sense of what they were trying to sell you in the magazines: The American Dream. Dull Creek gave you nothing to hope for but leaving. We all think we will one day. We talk about it as children; we say we’re gonna make it big and never look back. But nobody ever does. I really thought I was something when I got keys to be the overnight attendant at the only five and dime store in town. Soon, I realized it was just more of what the rest of my life had been- drunks and boredom. But I guess there is a God, because I prayed real hard and he sent me an escape.
