newborn daylight ignites the sky, fierce orange burns the remnants of night, a roaring surf smooths the sand, and welcomes another day

Beyond the Storm
when the world is ravaged by an unforgiving storm, and the sea threatens to swallow those who dare to approach, rain pounds against the slick, dark shore, until clouds part, the furious wind abates, the sun rises once more, to start the day anew, beneath a pink sky
A Light On The Ocean
when the sky grows dark, stars blink to life, the roaring tide comes in, gulls cry out, buoyed by evening winds, shell-hunters scour the sands for fresh wares, letting the hungry waves lick at their toes, the light on the ocean, a fallen fragment of moonshine, reminds us that we are, like hope unsinkable
To Say Goodbye
After 25 years, my parents have sold the family home. It is an inevitable event - my parents never intended to stay in PA forever.

For reference, Snyder stepped down from directorial duties following a family tragedy, … Continue reading A Dose of Justice (League)

When I was a child, my father introduced me to old radio shows. Many of these were detective classics, like Johnny Dollar, Sam Spade, … Continue reading The Old Days
Pokemon Master
When I was a ten year old - maybe even a five year old - I wanted to be a PokĆ©mon master. I'm twenty-eight now, and, to be honest, I still want to be one. PokĆ©mon has been around for 25 years, which is nothing short of incredible, and it's still going strong. I no … Continue reading Pokemon Master
