Like a Bird This Story Flutters Around in My Chest (Worldbuilding Prose)

Like a Bird This Story Flutters Around in My Chest (Worldbuilding Prose). Wednesday, December 21, 2011. I have a story inside of me waiting to be written. This is a realization that is all-together exciting and terrifying, but mostly exciting. When I think about this story I am filled with joy, but this story comes out of me not in a torrent but as a leaky faucet. Here is a droplet from that faucet:. The man gave a curt nod as he rose from his prostate position at the king’s feet. “Your m...8220;I cannot...

Thursday, April 28, 2011. Since I've been writing poetry since long before I started this blog, I'm going to post older poems as well as new stuff. Here's a little gem from the very beginning of the school year, back when I thought I was good at writing poetry but actually wasn't (as opposed to thinking I'm good at writing poetry and actually being good at it). This was my audition for my high school poetry slam team. Somehow I managed to make the team. Anyways, enough gab. Here's the poem. Inhabited onl...

No Poem Today, but. Tuesday, June 28, 2011. I'm thinking about doing a poetry contest! Would anyone be interested? There would be a prize, something like a custom poem or picture and a feature of your blog, whether you write poetry or not. Post here if you'd like the challenge. I'll prolly do it once a month with a different theme or muse each month. Also, to avoid bias, I'll probably look for someone or two someones to help me judge. PS I'm going to a funeral, hence no time for a poem. :P. EVEN MORE OTH...

Tuesday, September 20, 2011. That is to say, I'm going on a short hiatus until the end of October, because marching band and school have gotten the better of me, and it's unfair to make my readers constantly check to see when I've written a new post. :). Math on the Brain is Never a Shame. Inspirations A Play on Geometry Lessons. Wednesday, September 14, 2011. In Other News: I'm getting published! My 900-word life story. Is being published this month in an anthology of local life stories! I love to share.

I Write a Sonnet
http://alexaliteration.blogspot.com/2012/01/i-write-sonnet.html
I Write a Sonnet. Tuesday, January 3, 2012. I don't know how Shakespeare did it. Sonnets are hard! I mean, I could barely squeeze this one out, so I hardly can imagine how Willy wrote hundreds of them. I would probably die. Free-verse is more my thing. But then again, it seems everyone these days is doing free-verse. I'll be a non-conformist! The reason I wrote a sonnet? A Statue of Two Soldiers in New York City. Forgottens stand still in a sea of sick motion;. The pigeons hop dumbly from statue to other,.

Darkness
http://alexaliteration.blogspot.com/2011/12/darkness.html
Tuesday, December 20, 2011. I stood outside in the dark for ten minutes at two in the morning. Here's what came of it:. There‘s a certain silence that follows the dark around like a little brother. It wraps itself around your legs and covers your ears as if to say “Guess who.” It stuffs your ears with cotton balls until all you can hear is the rush of two-a-m-travellers on distant roads, the roar of tired pilots landing their planes on the lighted airstrips. Can they who have not seen know light? How I f...

Who is Skylar Macrae? For the most part, I would consider myself to be very observant. However, the observance of what I see rarely leads to much more than a mental note in my head.

Asheville, NC- where I call home | Eyes and Ears

Who is Skylar Macrae? Asheville, NC- where I call home. July 28, 2014. I just left Cambodia no more than a week ago. For the 2 months that I was there, Siem Reap felt like home. Now that I am back home, I wanted to be reminded of what it felt like to walk around the streets of downtown Asheville, NC. I decided to do a little bit of street photography, and this is what I was blessed to see! I hope you enjoy them! Please feel free to critique my work). July 28, 2014.

Compare and Contrast | Eyes and Ears
https://skylarmacrae.wordpress.com/2014/01/30/compare-and-contrast
Who is Skylar Macrae? January 30, 2014. Today’s post will be a comparison and contrasting of my planned day as I see it going, and my actual day after it happens. Just want to see the differences and similarities. Let’s see how I do…. Wake up, get dressed, be cold outside, eat breakfast, be cold outside, come back to the dorm, be cold outside, go to work, write a paper for my boss, get off work, be cold outside, go back to the dorm,. Browse my computer,. Check my stats,. Go to class, get out of class,.

On Nocturnal Living | Eyes and Ears
https://skylarmacrae.wordpress.com/2014/10/02/on-nocturnal-living
Who is Skylar Macrae? October 2, 2014. Tonight, from 2:30 AM till 3:40AM, I drove around and took photos of scenes that I thought would be able to encapsulate emotions- emotions that I typically feel at night while I’m wide awake and everyone else is asleep. I’ll share a few of them. There are not very many images, but I’m fairly certain my point is made more clear by the lack of quality images…. 8220;Whatever you give up for God will be filled and replaced by God with more of Himself.”. This is such a s...
