She Never Knew
She thought she was completely over it, but the image is still sewed in her memory. She tries so hard to loosen it but it seems that the thread she used was too strong to loosen, seems like her emotions are still taking over, but the battle has just begun...
The battle was within her, herself and she...
The problem is
She knows what she wants
But she struggles to get it
And when she’s a step from getting what she wants
She freezes up
What’s up with her feelings?!
Cause as far as she’s concerned
She is NOT in love
But she’s on a journey of achieving a goal that
Seems so impossible
Takes over everything
That is why that memory is stuck in her head
But she doesn’t wanna say what that memory is
People might think she’s possessed
IT IS JUST A DREAM—mama screams
IT IS A FRIZZING DREAM

Midnight
60 seconds… 59 seconds… Time was slipping through his fingers, though he clawed at the falling grains of sand, he could not stop the hourglass from flowing. Around him, the silence was deafening. He had taken over every screen in the command centre, putting the terrible seconds before the terrified eyes of his friends and comrades.

Snacktime Sonata Challenge Winners
Well, your Snacktime Sonatas made us hungry, and that’s about the highest compliment we have. Food — taste, smell, sensation — is a powerful conduit to the past, to memories pleasurable and painful and sometimes bittersweet, a mixture of comfort and challenge. Congratulations to Penny Fuller for Sativa — it’s a first win for Penny — a hymn to the “secret, unbounded/freedoms” of fresh peas in the pod. The narrative voice of the poem doesn’t really want to be outside, but finds joy in the green things of the earth; this is a lovely work of resilience.
