We live in a strange dual-existence. On the one side, time passes predictably and ever-onward. Each day, indeed, takes a day to pass. On the other, though, our lives have slowed to a crawl.

Final Thoughts [Onyx]
265 days. I have been in confinement for 265 days. It doesn't seem so long when you think about it but it somehow feels like a lifetime, and the longer this continues, the more hazy the world before becomes. As we approach the end of Chapter 1 of this never ending story, I am in … Continue reading Final Thoughts [Onyx]
Failure to Human [Le Sueur] [Lockdown]

From within the dystopian world we live, I find myself dreaming of a better future.
DAY 12 [Onyx] [LOCKDOWN]
Onyx reporting for duty. I guess I should start by giving some sort of apology for my absence, but I think we have established by now that I am not one for keeping up with routines. You can say I am unpredictable, I call it being lazy. It seems the country and half the world … Continue reading DAY 12 [Onyx] [LOCKDOWN]
