Deafening whips of ice skid across the frozen floor and eliminate any small careless creatures. Tornados

But even such powerful icons could

ARE YOU CRYING‚ asked the Yeller with a look of anger and hate in his eyes.

I had finally gotten to school‚ i was a little late but Mrs. McCarthy didn’t care. She was a close friend of my Mother and Father’s. I was going to take a seat but

Bivouac night sky ensnares him under a bleached moon. The pitter patter of his steps quickens as he sprints down the street. Trepidation takes him by the throat‚ filling him with shame and regret and a stagnant knell. I thought I could hear the night making noise‚ the whispering and uttering of incessant static coming from nowhere and everywhere at once. The constant‚ inescapable enigma that drapes him and everything he’s ever lived through: it’s nimbostratus veiling his heart. He can’t see through
