MOM

I was jogging in the morning and found this note. I always pick up notes hoping to find something interesting, they never are. I finally found something interesting and it made me sad. It makes me feel like it’s a sign to be nicer to my mom, but it is difficult and we still don’t … Continued

Ending It Now

Found in a used book about the Celts.

Poor Pelican

I work at a community center and I found this drawing on the floor. I thought it was great that he was born in “New Orlands” and died from “lunge cancer.” But, it truly is a sad story.

Don’t Be Snappin’

I found a book in the parking lot outside of my school and this was one of the things written inside of it. The book also had raps and some funny “essays” for school.
