Isabel Keane edited the blog post Settling In in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 3 months ago

I had stayed late at school, long after the last bus left, for some club or tutoring I had felt obligated to partake in just to claim involvement with something other than my own misery. I found myself walking home in solitude. Following the curve of a street lacking…[Read more]
Rachel Katz edited the blog post Stranded in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 3 months ago

“Stranded,” my grandmother said as she looked up from the Toyota Camry’s hood that had seen more damage than any car probably should and it had finally died sitting outside the community temple. She looked around the empty parking lot, inhaled the spring air, and finally crouc…[Read more]

I had just come back from tramping in the woods. I came into the musty smelling, wood floor slanting kitchen where my mother awaited. I had been gone all afternoon. I was too young to do that. The Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup that my brother and I had begged my mom to b…[Read more]
Cara DeJesus edited the blog post The Tree in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 3 months ago

You are dying.

Your branches wilted,
no longer extend for help.
They twist downward.
You droop, hopeless and
Alone.

Your leaves have fallen.
No one protects
You.
I hug you to give you warmth,
but the wind goes
Through you,
Still.

You’re no longer apart o…[Read more]
Julia Kinel edited the blog post A Fight in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 3 months ago

Wind-whipped splotches
of red all along her jaw.
Tears dripped over her chin,
down to her collarbones.

His eyelids were heavy;
a boxer’s wrists after a match;
slumped with defeat;
exhausted.

He closed his eyes,
shook his head,
brought his hands up to

Stop. F…[Read more]
Jacob Fleischer edited the blog post Listen to Crumple Zone here in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 3 months ago

Car makers have created a “crumple zone” on modern vehicles that absorbs the impact of an accident. Typically, the crumple zone is located in the front of the car and acts to minimize the dangers of being in a collision.

“If the car wasn’t already so full I’d invite yo…[Read more]
Melody Choi edited the blog post Tune in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 4 months ago

I see white
Black.

Fingers graze keys as the
pressure put on each goes
down.

Pressure.
I hear in my head,

“Do it again.”
My shoulders slump
and again I play

Red welts form
hands shaking

Repetition.
A living metronome
human error ceases.

Eyes clo…[Read more]
Phoebe Hartvigsen edited the blog post Sleep in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 4 months ago

Branches stroked the window, their silhouettes waving against a moonlit backdrop. The faint smell of well water floated through the halls and into the bedroom. The house was still. No pets roamed, no floorboards creaked beneath pairs of feet. It had long since settled into itself…[Read more]
Noah Zweifel edited the blog post ouroboros in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 4 months ago

ouroboros

and it is warm for January
birds swing and fall in the sky
like dancing stars.
the sun sits low on a cloud
washing the land in warmth and light,
shattered by the naked branches
of an oak tree

beside me lay a serpent of stone
encircling the old Homestead.
its tail is…[Read more]
Lydia Dozoretz edited the blog post Hank in the group Geneseo Almanacs: 10 years, 4 months ago

Slivers of invasive white light beam through the bedroom window exposing small triangular parts of mismatched furniture. In the dark shadows, my mother and I lay cuddled up under a patched quilt that spreads out like the night sky, blanketing us with dark shades of blue speckled…[Read more]
