Favorite Quote:
“Fiction is a lie that tells us true things over and over.” -Neil Gaiman


The end is nigh
Frozen ash falls from the sky covering everything with a pale grey skin.
Nothing escapes its grasp
The trees stand lifeless, cold to the touch.
The sky is dark at midday, bright with the light of the moon
at twelve. Work stops and people spill
wine instead of tears.
The world isn’t ending, we are
