I am no less a man for the reading as I am for the writing and riding, no less a man for bewitchment than spinning spells; The modern myths and classic legeneds offered by the
old men and boys flow forth, each crease in their pallid faces an ancient aqueduct for a certain mark of tear, dried dusty and cracked up when their stories are backed up and all they want left in this world is to let them flow in fire for crystal

How could it not be seen, o holy messiah? Nestled in it's niche between each crack in the infinite blacktop and each slat of the saline boardwalk, (itself a bridge to heaven

Quilt: n. (v. Quilting) Quilts are alive.
They are born of tiny stitches, red-pricked fingers,
and woven patches of your best and worse memories.
They exist on beds and in stolen moments.
They feed on skin cells brushed off with a gentle touch,

As for Aerie subs, Thursday the 12 of us met and discussed what should go in. We settled with 22 subs as opposed to last years' 25, BUT!!! We got SO many short fictions, it was great!! So we have about 37 pages with 22 subs, which consist of a few poems, short fiction, -personal essays omg-, and one drama ( I think ). Ain't the same with ya, boy, but it's pretty good this year ^^ 158 total may I add! I think it was 10 more than last year. Not too sure.
Keep in touch. It'd be nice to see you ^^
