Title: Chances and choices
Author: Maynard, T. L.
Pages: 2 pages
Text (TR_WF): Chances and Choices A memoir By Tabitha Lee Maynard The cinderblocks breathe and sweat, spin and jump, like they have a life of their own. The weight piles on as the volume raises. The screams of ignorance and suffering cannot drown out the noise in my head. The burns, bruises, and cuts do not cover the pain. The ringing of keys, a clink and bang; new sounds in the ocean of noise. Chow’s here, preceded by the nauseating smell of rotten food adding to the constant wet smell of mildew. On the e...

Title: Running
Author: Maynard, T. L.
Pages: 2 pages
Text (O): Running A poem/memoir by Tabitha Lee Maynard I don't even remember the time before running. It's all an empty space filled with stories and dark holes. I ran to the TV; escaped into the land of make believe. I learned to read and ran to books; a more transportable land of fantasy. When the books and movies were not enough I ran into the deepest, darkest hole I could find. Inside of closets, cabinets, basements, attics, under the stairs, inside the walls - even drain pipes where the ...

Text (O): WHO IS NONVIOLENT? By George Norris Hall Whatever l have done, it was done over 40 years ago at a minimum, and in some cases 59 or 59 years ago, under circumstances that even i don't remember clearly today, and has nothing whatsoever to do with the person i am today.
