reminder

You’ve forgotten what’s back here.

What’s half-buried or completely paved.

I will not forget. I will not let you forget.

I will stay here until you remember.

I am a reminder.

I am Cone Alone.

going swimmingly

Sometimes, the trails get too dusty, too busy.

And the people. The people are too angry, too hurtful.

So I find myself in the lake, bobbing with the tiny ripples.

I’ll keep the ducks safe for a while.

I am Cone Alone.

the family business

My great-great grandcone warned carriage drivers of impending cliffs.

I am the last of my family, but I have stood on the shoulders and heads of giants.

I will try to keep you ahead of the curve.

I am Cone Alone.

Block quotes

I never thought I would be close to you.

All my letters came back “Return to Cinder.”

This love is heavy. It weighs me down.

I am Cone Alone?

Bye summer, biweekly

Cone Alone, like many of you, is back to school.

That means you can expect posts on a biweekly basis.

The new post comes out Wednesday, September 4. 

See you back here then.

Until that time, stay Cone Alone.

“It sucks to be, under 21”

“Look, you all clearly have your age stripes, so just sneak me in behind you.

“Really? I’m going to be out here on the curb watching you drink under the Stars and Stripes just because I don’t have a fake ID?”

I am having a minor difficulty.

I am Cone Alone.
