Of Course I Still Love You

Submitted to Contest #92

  The humidity in the air was thick, like wading through a hot bog that covered every inch of the air on the dock. The sun was high in the blue, cloudless sky, and sweat was beading down Jeff’s neck to his already soaked t-shirt. The final touches were being made to the vessel. Unlike other ships, this one required a substantially greater amount of pre-departure tasks. Parked in the JAXPORT Cruise Terminal, which occupied the northwest corner of the Dames Point Marine Terminal in the Port of Jacksonville, the large, flat barge rocked ge...

Night Time Rendezvous

Submitted to Contest #91

The fire crackled softly in the waning afternoon on the mountain side. He had just woken up from a peaceful nap on the reclining sofa whose legs pointed in the direction of the stone fireplace of the cabin. “It’s almost time” he thought. Stretching his legs out, he mustered a powerful yawn that did wonders in shaking off the lingering restfulness. As his feet reached the floor, he delighted in the soft rug that hugged the crevasses of his toes. With a slow walk, he made his way to the kitchen area. The kitchen sat in the corner of the squa...

Repent!

Submitted to Contest #90

The pot had just begun to boil. An aroma of savory sauce still waded softly though the air as Julia turned off the stove. Making this particular ramen was a two-part process that she cherished. First is the broth, roiling in the warm water, was a dash of soy sauce, green onions, a cutting of yellow, aromatic ginger, and fresh shitake mushrooms. The noodles, boiling in a separate pot, were just about perfect. Experience has taught her to time the boil so the noodles were soft with an ever so slight bite to them. The steaming noodles filled he...

Black Composition Notebook

Submitted to Contest #90

July 15, 2035 It’s been a little while since I’ve updated this journal. I should really get better at it. Well, here’s to one more attempt at building in some level of discipline in my life! All in all, today turned out to be a pretty good day. Last week’s typhoon came and went, it was not as bad as XG22133, Dr. Willis said it was probably only about 230-259 miles per hour. God, I wish they would find a way to go back to actual names for these things. I guess when you have 30 or 40 a year, you run out of names fairly quickly. Anyway, th...

Finding a Purpose in the Sky

Submitted to Contest #90

For the unaware, Markton was flat. The extent of its flatness is truly difficult, maybe impossible, to comprehend, but in the hopes of broadening your understanding of the world in which we live, lets give it a try, shall we? A good place to start would be for your to take a look out of your window. Windows are wonderful tools that tell us so much about a place and even more about the people who live there. Do you see hills in the view from your window? Do you see mountain ranges or valleys? Are you on the third, fifth, or one-hundredth fl...

The life of an ant

Submitted to Contest #90

The warmth of the liquid was a welcomed sensation at first. He had lost his left shoe on the long march to the station. His whole life remained as he left it in his apartment. He thought of it briefly. His day started so normally. He had plans. He thought of the things he expected to accomplish on this day. He needed to restock his water supply, trade some of his remaining stores of flour for enough butter to treat his mother to a small cake. His mother… his life… seemed like distant memories now. This was all so obtainable in the morning no...
