#1 In the pre-commencements of life I am or was one of four angels conceived in heaven or the outer sphere of metaphysical creationist zone, I laughed out loud to myself, mumbo-jumbo, you know. I was conceived 500 years before the creation of humans. Before Adam, Lilith and Eve’s vicious love triangle. Divine Being told me the only reason he conceived us divine being was to aid him and to keep him company. He conceived Lucifer first and she was beautiful, he conceived her as an equal to him…

Cunningham’s choreography from the 1950s exemplified the way in which he studied ballet to form a modern technique. Septet, choreographed in 1953, featured six dancers in traditional ballet practice clothes, though instead of ballet shoes they were barefoot. In the film of a 1964 performance in Helsinki, Finland, the balletic influences are clearly visible from the beginning of the work. In the first of the seven sections, the lights rise on three statuesque dancers in a diagonal line across the…

The Funerary Relief of No’om was constructed circa 170CE in Roman Palmyra, which is present day Syria. The piece includes two main components, an elaborately dressed human woman and an engraved written inscription. The piece is currently located in the Ackland art museum, in the Ancient Art Section, on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The two different elements on the relief are not of equal importance. The woman, who may be No’om, is the focal point of the work.…

been a few seconds though because when I looked up at my horse was still standing there just looking at me. I am pretty sure she was wondering why I was on the ground. I stood up just hoping I wouldn’t pass out again. I unhooked the lead rope with my left hand and started walking to my truck. By now I was pretty sure I had dislocated my shoulder. The numb feeling was wearing off and I could feel the pain in my shoulder. I knew I had to get home and I just kept reminding myself to stay focused. I…

opposite minded people. In “Thor’s Hammer” Loki, who's an avid trickster, was crying for his life to Thor after cutting his wife’s hair off. A similarity I saw in the two stories was push and shove. In the story, “A world on the turtle’s back”, the left handed twin is ridiculously impatient and wants to be born immediately rather than the right handed twin, who is more laid back, and humbly waits untill he is ready to be born. While in the womb, “...The right-handed twin [told] him not to,…

Before I knew it we were friends. We talked for hours and laughed a bit we exchanged numbers and promised to meet each other again next week. Before we parted he whispered “you’re going to be a natural,” smiled and left carrying his tank. Weeks went by and we still talked one week he did not show up I found out days later that he had passed away. I felt like if I was in debt to him like after all of our amazing talks I had to join baseball and make him proud. Now…

anything of it. After our catch my mom drove me to the game, she was also my coach. I loved having my mom has a coach because she was different because she was the only girl coach and thought the game differently than all the other coaches. Just before we left I ate a sandwich and took some Tylenol. I thought I had a bruised thumb but, I wasn’t sure. On the way to the game I iced my finger…

20 Years Ago El Paso High School in El Paso, Texas 8:30 a.m. It was an unusually chilly and foggy day for September in Texas. Millie got out of her white Aleko and grabbed her yellow knit sweater that was draped across the passenger seat. She was reaching for her backpack, which was in the back seat of her car, when the first bell rang. Millie raced across the parking lot, up the concrete steps, and pulled the heavy door to the rustic brick building open. There was no one in the halls like…

could with the soap, she was soon gathering up her belongings in her left hand and making her way back up to the camp. Dixie was lost in thought as she ascended the quarry path, busy mumbling to herself about historical death rates and diseases. “Got it!” She had broken the silence that came along with the long walk up to camp, “1 in 7 died from TB and 11% from infection!” She yelled smiling to herself. She turned on her left foot in quick celebration before continuing back up the pathway. She…

crossed his legs before staring at the new arrival. "You---your Majesty!! My ap--apologies! Th--the news was so su--sudden that---" Alfred hurriedly knelt on the floor while emitting stutering sounds. "It's fine," the First Prince gestured with his left hand, "you of all people can act informal in front of me without encountering my wrath. Now speak" "Yes, my gratitude your Majesty!" Alfred cleared his throat before opening the white scroll he read and began reading it in front of the First…
