Destinaytion

Deep and down he dove-

time became an unknown

The swell rose and slashed-

his body managed the clash

He considered turning back-

none could survive this attack

But life doesn’t work in reverse-

he continued as conditions grew worse

A manner of monsters grew near-

they looked at this poor creature with a sneer

The man never looked around-

he’d experienced life’s ups and its downs

Deep and down he dove-

Unto a place, no one else has known

For my Stepfather

AbnormalVAverage

J.D Mullenary Sr., a.k.a. AbnormalVAverage, is a teacher and Esports coach based in Texas. He grew up on the beach in California, enjoying its temperate climate and boundless enthusiasm for life. After completing his first degree at nineteen, he felt that he needed to grow up and discover new experiences. With that in mind, he joined the military, earning a second degree in the process, and served for four years. After receiving his honorable discharge, he married the love of his life, helped raise his two sons, and returned to college with a focus on English and teaching. Now, he spends his time writing when he can, teaching students and Esports players the values of critical thinking, while still fostering all of the strays his wife brings to their home.
