Dream State Part 2
Dream State Chapter 2, The Future of Today. My mind has been swimming with the images the past two nights, they play like a film inside the confines of my sanity. I can not take this insanity any more I must find out the truth, I need to know if I'm going completely mad or if I need help for my ever increasing mental instability. I left my desk at lunch time walking down the street like I usually do, heading to the cauldron shop, a centre for the local community who are all pagan, occult or some form of magic wielder. I know them all here within the store they have become friends, they know all my secrets from year's gone by within the occult setting I choose to follow.

What's The Worst That Could Happen?
What’s The Worst That Could Happen? Riding the bus to and from work was so routine that the execution of the task was automatic, requiring no thought or attention on my part. I considered my commute as a type of rest time. It existed somewhere on the spectrum of consciousness between sleep and watching television. While it wasn’t as physically beneficial as sleeping, it was still rejuvenating to let my mind go completely blank. Occasionally random bits of conversation from the other passengers on the bus drifted to me out of the ether and I idly contemplated their meaning.

The Paintings in the Basement
Moving from town to town was something I got used to. We typically moved closer to whoever my mom was dating. Moving gave my mom optimism on her doomed to fail relationships. This time around, the move didn’t really phase me. My mom was taking it to the next level this time, we were moving in with her boyfriend, Frank.

They Look Just Like Everyone Else
As Allen took another drag from his Newport 100, he heard that noise again. He stopped in the middle of the sidewalk. Shielding his eyes from the summer sun, he looked around in earnest. There it was again. Was it coming from above him? It was some type of crying. He’d been walking for almost ten minutes down the left side of Willow road enjoying the warmness of the air and the occasional slight breeze that reminded him fall was on the way. He looked around the cookie cutter neighborhood where the houses were small but not that old yet. He remembered when this area was all woods, years ago when he used to play back here with the boys. Got into a couple fights back here too.
