This month is off to a terrible start already (notice this is a week late, I suck) and I just want it to be over with. If only life had a fast forward button to get through all the bad ish and jump right into the good. Or even just a warning system like Genie above or Spidey senses. Are superpowers and mythological allies really too much to ask for??

Theme: Speeding Toward Nothing

Structure: Rock Song

I’m guessing this month like last will once again be blades of green in different hemispheres: Stevie D focused on current happenings in Baltimore with a rather hopeful outlook and I stuck to my comfort zone in quirky fiction. I guess the only similarity lies in having unanswerable questions.
