In my role playing game there are many Matches, which are made up of Rounds, which consist of Turns. Every Turn has four Quarter-Turns. There are several Actions in each Quarter-Turn, and each of those has multiple Moments. Moments are precious. Each one contains the entirety of one Existence

The blacksmith in our town's a sewer rat named Rat de Culvert, and though his hammer's strokes do fall with careful might, the townsfolk keep him far in word and quarters. Maybe it's his lowborn air, perhaps his ratly stink, but day by day I wonder how the nose could be more precious than the heart

I am but one of many Seasoning Stewards tasked with flavoring Her Majesty's meals. I employ the finest Black Peppercorns, precision-ground to suit each dish. Yet still her royal palate favors the White Peppercorn Steward who, despite the mild temper of his spice, is a heavy-handed brute

Today as a collaborative exercise my team and I traveled to the outskirts of the city and spake our individual vices into the void: "glory addiction", "glory obsession", "addiction to glory",

My love, I hope this letter finds you well. Things go nicely at the bog, and the other men are in good spirits. They say if we place our nets right we'll return with bog crabs enough for the county. But I confess, at times I suffer a sinister melancholy; I've taken to prodding the crabs with a stick

Me? I've got some hobbies, I guess. Adult stuff. Boring stuff. Beans, coins, the earth. Don't know much about computers. Don't care to. Don't know much about cell phones either, or electric guitars. Guitars of any kind, for that matter. Beans and the earth, enough for me. Coins I can live without

Spending 85 pages of my fantasy novel describing how humanity's armies come together to tie the laces on a single shoe of The World Giant, a creature I've invented to illustrate the futility of human endeavor in my fantasy novel. The shoes protect its feet from World Brambles, World Twigs, and so on

we're hitting some turbulence folks... not worried... bet I could fly this thing with my feet... well that's not true... I'm not some kind of monkey... a cockpit's no place for a monkey anyway... they don't let just anyone do this... takes time... and you gotta know a thing or two about the world...

(boss) I've noticed that you're forlorn. I've seen your window gazing. You're looking for meaning, but you won't find it out there. (tapping your monitor) You'll find it in the spreadsheets. (realizing it looks like I think the monitor is the computer, squatting and tapping the tower) The sheets

I've decided not to change the batteries in my smoke alarm to get back at my cretin neighbors for crunching around in the boneyard at unreasonable hours

38 keys on my keyring. They all look the same. Whenever I get home I thumb through and try each of them, one after another, before realizing this isn't my house at all. No, this is concept piece "Gun Box" by artist Demond Fritte, and it shoots me dead where I stand

The boys and I are getting together, each taking our favorite mode of transit. I'm in the Camry; Mike is taking the train; Lewis is cycling; and our friend Civônt will light a small lantern, bury it solemnly in a meadow, and weep

My old and trusted friend, Frembles Greaseheart, has once again posted a treatise on the door of the neighborhood Denny's. Included are three new doctrines: the original sin of the Denny's, the dependent origination of the Denny's, and the emptiness of self

Everyone knows the game where you simply close your eyes. But have you tried holding that posture for seven, eight hours? Many find this terribly challenging

I've collected every manhole cover in the city and used them to construct a fearsome labyrinth. It is hundreds of meters across. Worse yet, all the manholes inside are exposed to the open air
