told them to save you for a night when God hadn't already provided so much meat. We ate. They drank and fought and fucked their women. Once they had fallen asleep, I rescued you."

  "What do we do now?" asked Maria.

  "We run, as fast and as far as we can. When they wake up and see us gone, they will hunt us until we are dead."

  From the Author:

  Thank you so much for reading my short story. I hope you enjoyed it. Please feel encouraged to share the work around the internet provided it remains in its complete form. If you could kindly write a review, I would really appreciate it. Your feedback is crucial to the development of more works.

  By using items that are easily accessible, I create a multimedia experience which investigates the connection between mysticism and art making. My art analyzes our existence as spiritual beings by critiquing and celebrating various aspects of human spirituality and the role it plays in our evolutionary development. Spirituality is an odd area for an atheist to work but I have grappled with trying to understand my spiritual self since a young age, and no religious institution or sacred text has resonated with me as deeply as the process of creation has.

  Whether working in music, writing, or visual art, I get lost in the noise and chaos of my inner self. I try to hone in on an emotional thread that leads to the “eye of the storm” where I’m able to fixate and focus on turning the inner noise into serenity. This is where the art happens. I find the chord that strikes within me and let intuition take control. My art becomes something even I was not expecting because problem solving and improvisation become driving factors in the moment. I can’t predict what will resonate with me until I am in the moment. I explore different mediums so that I am constantly learning something new and surprising myself. The moment when something unexpected happens and I have to adjust is when I really begin to understand what a piece will be.

  Although my work tends to have a quite somberness, the loud clamoring of music fuels its creation. Music is always at the center of my art even when I’m working in a medium that does not incorporate sound. The energy and rhythm of drums, the tension of a throbbing bass and the often shouted vocals of punk and hip hop groups cultivate my desire to be heard.
