It's been a long time... New Project!

Hello everyone! It's been a long, long time. I have been very busy over the years since I went to Southern Oregon University including a special project... a short book!  I created this project for my Emerging Media & Digital Art (EMDA): Transmedia Storytelling class (it's such a fun class!) I have worked on this story and the tale of Masako Gozen, the great samurai warrior who disappeared into the Forest after she heard "noises." Each chapter is a different version of the tale and I hope you all have the chance to download and read my project.

Enjoy!

This Moment (Another Korean Song Plays)


I didn't know you were hurting.
For a couple of years,
you should've said something.
Let me help (No)
What do you need (Nothing)
Why are you shaking (Go back to bed)
You can't deny this forever.
I get it,
you don't like the sound of crying for help
out of your mouth.
You just wait and imagine yourself praying that
you'll be back on your feet,
cooking, cleaning, and playing crossword puzzles again
as if I didn't see you laying on your back against the bathroom tiles,
half-naked, barely forming a word.
(It's okay) No it's not.
(It hurts) Let me help you
(Don't) What do you want me to do
(Go back to sleep)
Why.
I can't bear the idea when
I'll wake up to get a phone call from you--
you're in the hospital bed.
What do you want me to say? I told you so?
Don't you think you matter to me?
Let me help you.
(No)

Sunday

As I open the glass doors
to a scent of rain spreading
through the sunlight,
I was welcomed by gray clouds floating
above my roof.
Should I shut these doors and take a bubble bath?
Will it make those clouds go away?
Maybe I cleanse my ears with soft foam of soap then
nurture my tan skin with warm water.
The scent of smoke from across the hall
the black ant from yesterday crawls frantically
in the depths of my carpet as it tries to capture a piece of bread crumb
has soothe me enough.

I’ll stay here for a while.
