“Umbrella's Coated In Tears” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #95

I coughed and choked on my words. My eyes were red and sore from all of the tears rolling down my cheeks. I had failed. Again. Another day where I was not able to speak up about my feelings. I cry silently so that my family doesn’t hear. They don’t need to worry about me. It will be better in a couple of days. At least, I hope. I walk across my tiny room, to my desk. Where the tissue ...

“The Cliche” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #93

My old Levi's scrunch up tightly by my thighs. They are way too small, but I haven’t been able to afford a new pair this summer. Working at the “Buck's Burger and Fries” hasn’t helped me much at all. At least I have this moment to enjoy myself. “Hey, Justin, do you want to go on the Ferris wheel with me?” I ask, too desperately. I grab his arm and yank on it. Hard. “Sure, babe.” He sa...

“Just As Always ” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #92

“Boo!” Said Claire, for the thousandth time today. James turned around and hit her on the head with his newspaper. “Would you stop that? I’m trying to read.” James showed Claire the inked piece of paper, with the same date on it as always: 1951. “After all these years, do you really need to read that again?” Claire said, grabbing the newspaper from his grasp. “It’s the only thing to d...

“Knifes Are Sharp” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #85

The schools here are disturbing. Crime and gangs everywhere, and I swear these teachers did not go to the proper schooling to actually teach us. From the ages two to three I lived in a big city, but I hardly remember anything. Although, I do remember the distinct smell of hot dogs and urine in the streets. But, here I am again, at the age of thirteen, in a city. Me and my family lived in a town, not a small town, but de...

“Miss Willow ” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #83

“You are going to be my wife.” Those were the words that could have ruined my life. They keep telling us that there is no way to get off of Triangle Island. That’s why I’ve lived here my whole life. But, if we truly couldn’t get off of it, how did we get here? Triangle Island sits upon the North Atlantic Ocean. Our most famous tourist attraction is the famous Bermuda Tr...

“Frozen Yogurt After A Year ” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #81

I am so stupid. So incredibly stupid. How could I ever fall for this? When I finally was getting over this play boy, he pops out of nowhere. Well, I guess not nowhere. I probably should have thought of the possibility that Emma would set me up with my ex. I have been on plenty of blind dates before, and I can admit I like them. The element of surprise is fun, and I honestly think that blind dates are good for y...

“A Different Kind Of Panda ” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #78

Abby took a deep breathe as she put the dog cibble, or whatever her crazy aunt had given her, into the bowl. She had dropped it by yesterday on the porch. And it wasn't the fact that the strange substance was wet and slimy, but the smell that irritated her so bad. How was Rocky going to give her kisses now? He couldn't. And she knew that, but didn't really want to believe it. But there was no way that his stinky breath w...

“Songs and Space ” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #76

"I-uh- am just really happy here." What was that? The 14th lie of the week, and it's only Wednesday. I can't even talk straight to the guidance teacher. "That's good to hear, Henry." She replies, handing me a slip of paper. "As you can see here, your grades are really super, but your citizenship is quite low." I nod, knowing this is true, but not wanting to fix it. "A really good way to fix this is to ...

“Nothing Like Soy ” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #66

"Can you move?¨" I say angrily. The bee’s head turns to me. Its big black, glassy eyes look confused. It turns back to the flower. I roll my eyes. "Okay, that’s it!¨" I scream. I go over to the bee and push it away. It makes a "bzzt" sound and flies away. I don't feel bad for him. He was hogging the pollen after all! I look down to my super tools belt and grab my straw. I suck the sweet liquid from the f...

“Bill is Too Slow ” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #65

My mother places the witch hat on my head. I made it myself, with tin foil and everything! "Bill is waiting outside. So is Kash. Be safe, and listen to Bill!" She says, but I know she is teasing. I will listen to Bill, of course. But, her voice is high pitched and she pushing me out the door. She must how restless I am. This is my first Halloween. I take a deep breath of the crisp air around me. Kash run...

“Willow's Whistling” by KENNEDY PLANT

Submitted to Contest #64

I walk up the creeky old stairs. It seems like forever since I have been here, and I'm not sure I want to go back. Murder. The word haunts me in my sleep. Of course, they are here to interview me again. Just when I was getting away from the past. The wind hollers out my name like a lost boy searching for his mother. The thing that I always feel when I come here is back. It's dark. And cold. The statues of angles don't even look close to friendly. Nothing here does."Back already?" I hear her call. She's in my dreams every night, and...
