Edward Hopper’s painting Night Hawk is set in the film noir days (1920s); it shows people sitting in a classic style diner after midnight I presume because of the empty streets and closed shops around the diner. It displays the night sky in contrast to the brightly light interior of the old “mom and pops” style diner. Noticeable forms in this work of art include the wooden counter, which matches the surrounding stools, metal coffee containers in the aft, green trim around the windows, which…

He was lost. There was no question about it. At first, the jungle had seemed a nice enough place, full of peculiar yet interesting birds and animals, and strange species of smoke expelling plants which grew in all random corners of the sharp rigid landscape. But now as the day began to grow darker and darker, his senses became more and more alert, and he began to play tricks on himself wondering whether it was just the ruffling of giant leaves which grew on the odd, violet coloured plants that…

The dress was perfect to see my idol: Abigail Adams. The dress cost me a $25, I don’t even know how I’m gonna pay this back to Abel; but it’s perfect. The bottom portion is crimson at the ends bordered in gold lines, loops, and flowers. The top is a white blouse that complements the gold and crimson. I squeeze into the dress trying not to wrinkle it. Thank God it fits. I look out the window of my small bedroom. I see Abel’s hazelnut hair an absolute mess, like always. He was chopping wood for…

Fun Fact: Wilma Marita means, willful desire for Rebellion. The full bass music blared into her ears, the sounds heard from multiple feet away. Her eyes laid closed, and her boney finger tapped gently to the beat. She laid her short haired head to the cold desk, she winced as her warmed face touched the chilled light colored wood. Her bitter eyes snapped open, as a callous tap hit her shoulder. It took a few seconds to take in full view of the towering teacher, eyes boaring into hers, as if…

The first way to use this spell would mostly be used if at all in a fight you don't want to be in. by moving your wand from pointing up to pointing at your enemy level with your shoulder and saying the incantation will cause the tip of your wand to shot out green sparks that wrap themselves around the enemy well…

I couldn’t sleep. The images kept going through my head, over and over again, an eternally revolving circuit; a dog chasing its tail. The tinted light from the street seemed to blaze into my tiny room with the brilliance of a noon sun, but it wasn’t the light of illumination, it was the light of revelation. In this light you could see the truth; you could see where the things in the shadow lurked, the ones that fed on fear. I tried to ignore the book, face down on my nightstand, as I swung my…

Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon Joseph awakens on his stone bed with an aching back, surrounded by startling faces with gaping eyes. He hastily reaches into his coat pocket for a quickly emptying bottle of sanity. He grasps around for a drink to down a capsule. As the pills take effect, the faces recede away and he stands up, every joint cracking in protest. Joseph looks at his scratched watch face and thinks to himself, It is almost time for my appointment. He wipes a sniffling nose and the glint…

close to bedtime, listening to the radio, while my mom would sometimes watch for entertainment while she was fixing dinner. The doll would always wear the pastel pink dress, while I would wear one of my multiple pairs of pajamas that were in different colors and have my hair up in a low ponytail. I would always have to wear the pair of pajamas that were either blue, green, or yellow, never pink; wearing pink or even wearing a nightgown to dance with the doll felt wrong to me, foreign even.…
