2/30

Poem two out of 30!

Perfect bliss lies on lovers tongues who are unwilling to do or say anything to make it right by your laws.
Shall he be punished and rightfully so, for has he not sinned against you, his fellow man his lover, scorned betrayed a mad woman, a shell, an excuse for a human.
She unlike any other will turn his advances away and make him pay and hurt the way she has paid and hurt for too long.
I say I shall scream it from the tops of houses that I am free and bare and lonely and I have been taken hostage and for granted.
But I can rise out of his self proclaimed black hole of misery and set fire to all the world and all the world will know my name and fear and wonder in it's sound.

1/30 poems

I want to try and update my blog for thirty days straight with some of my recent writing works, just to get myself back in the habit of writing before school starts. I have actually been writing a couple times a week but now I will try and post every day for 30 days something newer.

I am sinking down
the brown gray earth swallowing me
I touch the bare core
and feel myself spit up
a corpse of broken bones and a broken soul.

I am crawling out
of my self dug hole
my bones scrape against dry clay
leaving behind fragments for rememberance
small white pieces of what I worked
so hard to build.

I am kneeling
before the idol gods
praying for deliverance
hoping not to be answered
willing to sacrifice nothing
in return for everything.

Did you see it

The pretty pretty thing that was in my garden?

This is about the only bug that does not scare the living day lights out of me! And I was outside enjoying the sun when I saw this pretty b-fly. I had to get some pics.

This is what happens when I am depressed

I decide when I am depressed I need dessert. I decide to go to meijers. I decide rootbeer floats sound good. I decide that Ben and Jerry's on sale for 2/for 5 is a great thing. I drink about four of these last night.

But oh man they were soooooo good! But yeah did not help much with the depression, just made me feel fat and full.
But I scrapped and that was good!

Ignorance

A poem I wrote a while ago. In my jorunal from Nancy!

Ignorance flows through us like blood
We let it drip out in our words and our actions.
We soak it up daily
We think it is funny and we openly encourage it.
We cannot live without ignorance
It has taken over our way of life, our culture.
Ignorance is our neighbor, our friend, our family member
Ignorance lives in each one of us.
It can control you in ways that are harmful
Ignorance can run you life, it can destroy you.


Sometimes I feel like there is so much ignorance in the world and in people in my life it is like I am swimming in it.

Something I don't get

WHAT IS IT???
What is it with Barnes and Noble and Stephanie and I getting hit on by old men?
I cannot stand it, it has happened twice now and it is just annoying, I DON'T want to talk to you I DON'T want to have you sit by us and ask personal questions.
YOU ARE OVER 60 we are 21 not no not no not cool man!
I just do not get it?
Do old men think young women like them?
Well sorry bud-o not me.
