Nothing was wrong with this young man, he was like an ordinary person, but one thing that was strange and mysterious, was his tattoo. It was a tattoo of an eye, in…

As a joke all the boys in the school call you "Sarah Smiley". Before I had the chance to even talk to you or get to…

At the time I was a poor college student looking for a place to stay with my friends. We found an apartment for cheap. The rent was split equally between the four of us with one person just paying sixty dollars a month.In the apartment, there were plenty of windows that should light up the apartment nicely but despite that the house was still dim.

In this exceedingly powerful painting, “Figures in a Landscape” painted in 1972 by Sidney Goodman, a child, woman, and man are in what looks to be a park because of the sandbox and blue and red swing set. In the background the mountains are bright and happy with houses surrounded by many tall green trees. On the right side of the painting is a huge dark gloomy cloud like when a murder is about to occur in a horror movie. The figures look like something is going on in their mind, maybe they are…
