the construction

over the cords

 through the tunnel

avoid the holes

street signs down

doubled back

think we qualify

misfits and mischievous 

new members

of the club.

Here’s what the club had to say about itself:

Misfit Society Coffee Club is a place for misfits, outcasts, savants, prodigies, freaks, underdogs, and pretty much everyone in-between.

We’re all-inclusive, to be sure, but we have a special place in our hearts for the rule breakers and mischief makers. In other words, we have a lot of love for anyone and everyone who dares to think differently and follows their own path. Not your average cookie cutter types (but we love them too).

We strive to be a warm, welcoming house of refuge for all. The type of place you might be drawn to on a bad day, because you know you’ll walk out feeling better; or on a good day, because, well, you’ll walk out feeling better-er.

Yes, we said better-er.

 

 

 

bear belly.

this gentle, big belly bear

is just waiting to find a home with someone who will love him exactly as he is. 

even though he sometimes wears his shoes backwards

and enjoys climbing trees and pretend like he’s a monkey.

misfits.

Standard

for all the oddballs and misfits out there,

eventually, if you just follow your path,

you will reach somewhere no one else has.

you are uniquely meant to do something that only you can do.
