My phone rings, I hesitate to answer it because it is an unfamiliar number calling. The area code was 330 -- which I now know is northeast Ohio. 

"Hello."

"Dennis?"

"No, I'm sorry, you have the wrong number." 

"Oh I'm sorry, have a nice day." 

"No problem, you too."

I'm nothing special

Posted by Karen Brown in STORY-002 on
I'm sick of this 
I'm worn out
I am a page that has been torn out
A picture that has been burned
I am sick, I am crazy
I'm always being called lazy
I do my best and I'm told that I can do better
I pray for sunshine, but I can't mess with the weather
I'm the gum off of someone's shoe
I am looking for my reason to live, I truly don't know what to do
I have been told by others that I am crap
Hearing people talk about me behind my back
I am fat, lonely, I can't run a lap
I cover my head, while people tell me i'm a load of crap
I know that most of this stuff is true
But tell me, what am I to you?

A Twisted Fantasy

Posted by Andre Serrano in STORY-002 on
I was with them for Christmas one year. They weren’t particularly generous, but they did get me a diary. I would write in it everyday. I never had any toys to play with at their house, so this would generally occupy my time. I would never let them see it, obviously. No, that would just make them angrier. I wrote on the last page “And then I died of pneumonia.” Because I couldn’t imagine, or rather, I didn’t want to live past a certain age.

A Moment of Pride for Dear Mama

Posted by Christine Walden in STORY-002 on
Standing outside the bathroom for ten minutes under the impression the door is locked. Reading a paper as I wait. A woman comes over and gets in line behind me. We wait. She is approached by two lovely drunks eager to flirt. Awkward, slurred conversation commences. She gets uncomfortable and I check the door once more and realize it was not locked, merely heavy. Shame then takes a physical form and forever attaches itself to my back.

Best Birthday Ever

Posted by Oswald Dembowski in STORY-002 on
I'm glad my 18th birthday was so amazing, I got to spend it with friends who actually cared for me and not ones who left me down in the dirt. . I love that I spent my birthday with my family and I love that I got to spend it with a girl who actually cares about me. I have to vent my happiness on this stupid blog......FUCK ALL THE HATERS, I'M 18 MOTHA FUCKA
