     I have heard several people tell me that ADHD is not a real medical condition. Some doctors and psychiatrists even argue about whether it is a legitimate disorder or not.            ADHD stands for "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder." Some persons affected basically cannot pay attention, some persons can pay attention, but are hyperactive and cannot sit still, and finally, some are a combination of both. I am in the last category.            When I was 6 years old, my first-grade teacher noticed that I was very hyperactive and easily distracted. Sure, all kids are hyper and have a hard time focusing, but she said that I was

One can no longer be human. One must choose. Be straight. Or be gay.

I wrote this essay because Herman Cain's 9-9-9 plan is the most ill-conceived and potentially counterproductive economical plan I have heard in recent history.  Not only that, it seems to embody everything that is wrong with the republican way of thinking.  I'm going to explain my objections to this plan, and also touch on the broader issues of republican capitalist ideals. For those of you who are unfamiliar, Cain's 9-9-9 plan is to limit income tax 9%, but introducing a 9% business transactions tax and a 9% federal sales tax.  There's one crucial problem I immediately noticed, and to make it easier to see, I'l

the teeth of choice barely rubbed at you through your clothes, while i was scratched and scratched and scratched deciding and the scars grew roots in my brain, thick and keloid white, patterns i can't erase i loved you like a murderer, like a hurricane i loved you like a man who drowns himself loves the sea i loved you like the two-ton anvil of responsibility i thought you'd handed to me too young as rough your skin, as rough as i worried just as much for you as for all the little sheep i left behind.

I'm asexual. Yes, I'm a seventh grader. No, that doesn't mean it's just a phase. It doesn't mean I'll grow out of. It doesn't mean I'm just being a stupid little kid. Asexuality doesn't mean I reproduce with myself, nor does it mean that I'm a hermaphrodite. It doesn't mean that I'm homosexual, heterosexual, or pansexual. It doesn't mean that I hate romance, or that I like it. It doesn't mean that I dislike sex, or like it, for that matter. What being asexual can mean, is that I don't have the drive for sex, or I don't have the drive for romance in general. It can also mean that I do have somewhat of a drive for sex, but not

you cross my mind like children's feet patter across the street, and in the disney waistline wrinkle carved into the palm of my hand, i imagine your hands haphazardly floating into mine nestling confusion and distortion in the same nest as closed spaces. our voices synthesize synchronized heartbeats in the resting place of growth as we monitor only each other in this wrestling conundrum of this contemporary heterodox where our affection prevails. our connection of slendering lingering fingers were not made to match and our toes were not told that they’d curl when our hairs melted into each others’ or that our skin wrapping aroun

i will sink my teeth into a supernova to let the stardust and cosmos slide down my parched throat and wash over my intestines, like a pebble drowning in the sound--

Monsoon heavy drops Pitter patter in the night A sip will suffice
