We are all just stories
Music by flying lotus- 1983
We are all just stories
try not to be boring
death is much like snoring
this is but a warning.
it's all friends and foes see
your friends do not know we
and all of our glory
just a sad sad story
Dragons and heroes
we were just some zeroes
trying to be here though
when the winters got cold
just another fable
put down on the table
trying to be able
to be more than just a label
questing to be legends
more than dust in the wind
repenting for past sins
trying to be whole again
the journey that we know
is so far from our home
that we only feel alone
nothing close to call our own
we are all just stories
try not to be boring
death is much like snoring
this is but a warning.

Glass half empty
Daedelus- Song “Fin de Siècle
Always been undeserving
Lucky to be alive
Not really living
Just content to survive
Never fully understanding
Couldn't really wait
Always so quick
To simply blame fate
Not worth the emotion
Don't really have a clue
Really kinda scared
Don't know what to do
Bad at being human
Bad at being free
Bad at being loved
Bad at being me
A little self loathing
A bit of self hate
The doctor wouldn't prescribe it
I told him I wouldn't wait

The girl in the photo
Music by Royksopp
song Vision one (instrumental)
the poem is a song meant to be read in tune too the first 42 seconds of the song.
New occasion
same old place
no one makes me
feel this way
when I see you
instant joy
just like I'm a
little boy
diamond dust
it turns to gold
all the ice
it burns like coal
everything is possible
because you're
unstoppable
and your image
etched in mind
frozen in the
sands of time
your voice's like a
nursery rhyme
got me dreaming
every time
I wish I could
hold you close
your the girl I
love the most
in a photo
in my dreams
you show me what
real love means

The Rat Race
Music by Royksopp- Forsaken Cowboy
Back then, don't know
good things bound to grow
back then fucken natural
stimulation seemed factual
but now, it's a fight
and it's all just to feel alright
I want the fun that I use to have
without intermissions of feeling bad
enough of being in a zone
where negative feeling call themselves home
this adult life is killing me
so far from where I want to be
is this all that's left for me?
a sense of growing responsibility?
till the life is gone from me
and I forget what it means to be free
and settle for monotony
cause a system wont let me be
A lazy hippie that doesn't want to work
who doesn't want corporate perks
who wants to fulfill his dreams and have his fun
and perhaps spend a little time in the sun
someone who wishes that we could all be
in an America thats considered free
where people are not just rats
running on a wheel
frantic as hell
but no big deal
I want a bit of my child hood back
I want less stress
but this makes me strange
and my country could care less
the system is set
go make some money
have some medicine
if your feeling funny
buy something new
if your feeling sad
a system where it's normal
to feel bad :(

I live in a dream
Music by foster the people
Pumped up kicks
I wake up
to go to sleep
I dream up stuff
it does not keep
I think I'm stuck
can't be sure
reality is so like....
what for?
and why not
something more?
I live in a dream
of this I can tell
sometimes important things
are so what the hell
fuck it...
and go to sleep
to wake up
knee deep
in a dream
as far as you can tell
all to sigh
and whisper oh well...

Death after death
music by little dragon song twice
My body is cold
it's cause I'm dead
but I'm not ready to die
so I'll stay here instead
life was so cruel
by why did it have to end
I could have done something great
even if it was just for pretend
now that I'm dead
just what should I do
maybe I'll take my time
and patiently wait for you
will you remember me?
of this I'm not too sure
you lived a full life
you don't think of me anymore
I'm not sad
it is what it is
when I passed away
we were only kids
now no one remembers
no reason to wait
but does this mean
I must except my fate
I don't want to go
but no reason to stay
it's painful even for the dead
to be forgotten this way
incredibly sad
and very morose
and much too horrible
for people who were close
for those of you
who are still alive
it's handy to hold hands
when you die

Death will die yo.

for making the world a little better
and
death will die yo
this is a fact
with hope by your side
fears at your back.

Is there something more productive you could be doing?
Music Daedelus Our last stand
Is there something more productive you could be doing?
I am unsure
what am I to do?
I am unsure
I'm without a clue
I can't spend my time wisely
I lay awake
and when I have an idea
It's a mistake!
...I am unsure
where the fuck do I go!
what the fuck should I do!
and how will I know?
where is my direction?
where is my guide?
and how do I feel
less lost inside...
I am unsure
at least I think this to be true
I feel so lost
I want to feel something new
enough with uncertainty
enough with the hesitation
clarity in occasion
in order to reach
elation
and maybe
purpose
to counter pain
in order for
exsistance
to be
explained?

A good story
Music DJ Pogo Bloom
A Good Story
A good story
will fucking shake you
it can humble you
and overtake you
A good story
is a thing of art
capable of inspiring awe
right from the start
A good story
means minds blown
it can make you feel better
when your all alone
a good story
worth more than gold
if it touches my heart
then I'm sold
so give me your eva's
take a red pill
become the last avatar
embrace the thrill
because a good story
is good for you
and one day
I'll write on too
:P

To grow a litte
Music- Cowboy Ost green gird
To grow a little
Change is inevitable
I'm no boy any more
I use to think about growing up
I use to say what for
boy I've changed
without ever trying
when I think about it
my inner child starts crying
don't go bitter
remember whats worth it
youth is in my heart
I think that's important

Music - Cowboy Ost Blue
A little Dream
nothing bad
nothing broken
nothing wrong
but nothing beautiful?
...
Where is it that I will find
The connection that exists in my mind
when is it that I will feel
a situation that feels real
where is the beauty that exists in my mind
can I build it
is there time?
will reality ever be
what my dreams truly mean to me?
I got this idea
it's precious to me
the world has locked it up
I'm trying to set it free
can I do it
I gotta try
if I fail, it's worth it?
why...
cause I got a dream
I can see it in view
it would mean the world to me
if you could see it too.

Sad and alone
Music- Portishead glory box
Sad and alone
The nothing of it all is much too much
but some will pay so much for that
I remember seeing you a long time ago
I wonder if you'll ever be back
The plan ain't mine but a plan is a plan
The gun ain't my gun but there's a gun in my hand
bad decisions come in sets of three
and black cats won't let me be
I'm about to do something I may one day come to regret
but it's cool, not many happy days left
One click.....
One Boom.....
life ends
so soon.
If I saw you on the street and I failed to say
that I thought you looked kinda nice on that day
please please please forgive me ok?
I probably wasn't all together on that day
kinda been falling slowly apart
and I hear that death can sometimes start at the heart
Life alone can get to a man
It can slowly kill
and you know your in bad shape
when your best friends are pills
It's all a joke
and I'm not laughing
...
I think it's about time
I make something bad happen.

Perfect invisible
Music - DJ Shadow you can't go home again
Perfect invisible
Perfect invisible
I want it now
but I can't find it
I don't know how
something tangible
yet impossible to hold
something invisible
yet worth more than gold
ever changing
no matter the occasion
simply perfect
in every situation
perfect invisible
it must exist
but where?
where could it persist
and where do we find it
where dreams come true?
and even if we saw it
what could we do
it's invisible cause it's perfect
and the other way around
so maybe were screwed
cause it can't be found.
ain't that perfect
ain't that grand
invisible perfect
its out of hand
yet we still strive
cause we want it so
but perfect is invisible
didn't you know?

1+1
Music- Billy Corgan, spun ost, you think you know
1+1
1 + 1 is me and you
divide by 2 and then were through
if so what is 1 to do?
when the math of it all is not true
when reason and logic just don't apply
worst off you don't ask why
happy for now just to be 2
now dividing by 2 just won't do
because where 1 was once enough
now 1 can seem so tough
and math can't explain why 2 is the goal
but it's on my side and addition is gold.
1+1 it ='s 2
and I don't want to be divided from you.

blowing my brains out
cleaning the stain out
wiping the shame out

Erasing my name out
feeling so left out
cutting myself out
so
feeling the neglect
no need for respect
an all knowing reject
though
brilliantly so me
see through you don't see?
mirror is real me
bro
feeling incomplete
sometimes it feels neat
breathing is a treat
grow
needless, I need be
nobody needs me
I am my own worst
foe

Adventure time
Music- Blockhead Trailer love
Adventure Time
Fresh dew is something new
something new to very few
but the view on the horizon
when the sun shines
and the light is blinden
well that's something beautiful, ain't it true
but most importantly it's something new
with that in mind here's a question
are you well?
well enough to say what the hell
to take my hand and make a stand
to embark on adventures that are oh so grand
oh and all the places that we could go
all the people we could get to know
we could go to places fresh and new
meet the people who know not of dew
ride sharks though a sea of dreams
fight dragons and evil things
ride on clouds and fish for stars
become heroes and end wars
everything becomes possible when you become bold
the future is waiting when you neglect what your told
a permanent smile when you get old
and I can't just wait here to die
may not have wings but got to fly
at the very least gotta try
can't wait forever wondering why
so last chance this is it my hand is extended
your average life could be over you could forget it
life is yours you just need to take it
adventure exists but you have to make it

are you sad
disappointed?
cause were bad
please don't cry
we try our best
we were never
any good with tests
please accept us
through the imperfection
stay with us
bestow your protection
we won't thank you
we don't know how
but even if we did
pride wouldn't allow
Small planet
please don't hate us
please don't hurt us
or do away with us
we are your children
full of teen angst
partially suicidal
full of mistakes
please don't kill us
we woulden't know what to do
were so very small
and we can't kill you
don't feel sorry for us
it's already so tough
our love for each other
is still not big enough
Small planet
don't call us disgusting
these thoughts are just human
our violence is nothing
oh small planet
do not feel shame
that we can''t grasp happiness
for we are to blame.

we won't thank you
we don't know how
but even if we did
pride wouldn't allow
Small planet
please don't hate us
please don't hurt us
or do away with us
we are your children
full of teen angst
partially suicidal
full of mistakes
please don't kill us
we woulden't know what to do
were so very small
and we can't kill you
don't feel sorry for us
it's already so tough
our love for each other
is still not big enough
Small planet
don't call us disgusting
these thoughts are just human
our violence is nothing
oh small planet
do not feel shame
that we can''t grasp happiness
for we are to blame.

Who cares.
Who cares
Fuck you and your tigers blood
we drag souls through the mud
ten days pass and angels sing
and the dead, they hear most everything.
the wind is cold shes not our friend
she reminds us that all things end
so fuck you and your lions howl
we want change so bring it now
no altered perceptions of delusions so grand
your so damn warped can't understand
all wrapped up in foil of pain and love
we don't really give a crud
passion is pow and we want it now!
and tigers blood is not what we need
but hearts of good intentions please

That Human thing
That Human thing
The sun glows brightly when I wake up. I'm at school before I can even realize it. Day in day out this is me. Sometimes I wonder if I'm dead, I wonder if I was dead how could i even tell. My Name is Brenden I'm twenty three I go to school at HCC. Everyday is more or less the same for me. I spend a lot of time by myself so my mind tends to wonder from time to time. I've begun to feel like everything down to my social experiences are the same like my life is some scratched turn table. This beat, the music of my life is driving me...batty. School is endless, I've been taking classes since I can remember. Work, money, my friends, my girl, no one can make this any better.
In math class I wonder what more is left for me. growing old, career, kids, am I not satisfied? If not does that make me selfish? Who am I too want more then that, I'm no one special. my grades are decent. I'm not some weirdo I got nothing...
Nothing to be disappointed with. Everyday is the same but I'm making progress. With each day I get older but it's a good thing, With each day I am more valued by society. It's a good thing, career, wife, kids, career, wife, kids, career, wife, kids,career, wife, kids, Career, Wife, Kids! My head... it starts to spin. I start to sweat uncontrollably I feel trapped. My teacher talks but I can't hear him, or rather he's too loud I've been hearing him my entire life. The walls melt the faces around me are shapeless; I feel bad why I ask why is this happening to me. my head aches it feels as though I have fallen from a highway going a thousand miles an hour in slow motion. I know not what to do with my pain. I grab my pen, I have half a mind, quarter of my mind, I have a mind to drive this pen into my temple. I could free my self from this trap that I find myself in, this trap that I was born into. A cure for the monotony in my life I could end it all. With the pen in hand I put my head onto the cold hard table that I've become so acquainted with. The cool wood would be the last favorable thing in this world for me. I... was fine with this, I raised the pen high over my head and I look around. Me being in the back of the classroom no one would even notice that last few seconds I would be on this earth. This was a sign no one could free me from this system. cause no one knew they were trapped by it. I took my pen and drove it into my skull.
Or at least I would have if I didn't feel a hand reach out to me. "Hey" I looked up slowly only to be blinded by the florescent lighting of the classroom. I shield my eyes as though I was staring into the sun. the girl next to me staring. "Don't be an idiot" she says. I can only stare at her, did she some how know? Surely she didn't think me serious. "ahh" I mumble as the class is dismissed; she gets up and she walks away. She couldn't have thought I was serious I think to my self. Was I serious? The walls were perfectly still the pain gone I sit in the class room alone.
I walk home, everyday. It's my life ya know I should get a car, I should get a car... I should I think to my self. I bet I could save up for one. I should cross the street right... now. Did that guy strike me a mean look? Who was that girl. She had no right to call me an idiot. Well I was acting kinda silly. Boy she was pretty with her bobbed hair her freckles and a mouth that... that called me an idiot. on second thought she wasn't so pretty... she was this... and she was that and... I thought about her all the way home.
No messages on facebook...the internet is boring sometimes... most of the time. I start to wonder when the lights in my room had been turned off... I start to wonder when I preferred it this way. I haven't said anything to my mom today, or this week that not true yesterday I asked her when dinner would be ready, I think about how were strangers in the same house, about how I'm twenty three and still living with her.Well the economy is tough we both work. It's just easier for us both this way. Cause... cause were comfortable strangers. Speaking of strangers what about that girl. shes never said anything in school to me before. She was really nice to me I think, she was so very nice. I wonder if my girl would be jealous of me thinking so much about this girl... It's late I wonder if I'll see her again tomorrow I watch a dirty movie more bed. I try to pretend that maybe she and I. But I can't, the girls in these movies are weird I can never tell if there enjoying them self's or not. eight hours later and I'm still not asleep. All I can think of is her, I smile a smile that tells me... I'm still alive.
I walk to school early. the sky's a misty blue that the dawn brings before the sun is seen. A sky like rain but not that of rain, that of optimism. You can see the sleep in my eyes, today is full of promise. Shes practically promised me that. I sit at school long before classes start. I tap my feet, I do this as though there is something to tap my feet too as though I were dancing. I sway back and forth slowly all the while telling my self today is my day and I knew today was my day. I couldn't tell you how or why but I knew. I knew today I would see her again I knew that she saved my life I knew that she knew that she saved my life. I knew that she cared for me. Not like my friends not like my girl not like my mom or my dead beat dad this was different I would be dead if it weren't for this girl. I knew she was special I thought she even might be some type of angel I filled my head with fantastic tales of her affection for me I made my self feel loved I made myself feel special.
During math class she was no where to be found... I thought, I was going to do something crazy but I didn't. No I waited till class was over but she never showed. Something died within me. It was a feeling I didn't harbor for very long but it hurt like hell when in left. Like a child that walks into a room to find his mother butchered I went to the bathroom and I cried as silently as I could. I cried because I was once again trapped. I cried because I'm a fool because I am selfish. I cried because I caught myself wanting more. And it hurt, it hurt to know now that I couldn't settle that I couldn't settle but to know that I would have too. because I'm not meant for more then this. I mean who am I.
Once my little break down was over I walked the school halls for a long time. I didn't attend any more classes. I felt dead but this time I knew it. I walked outside behind the school and looked up at the sky. misty blue like dawn, or maybe like rain I was no longer sure. I wondered now, what was I really going to do with that pen. As I looked down there she was... my heart stopped. "Hey" she said. I must of have been hit by lighting just then because I wanted to leap forward yet held perfectly still. I shook and I twitched my heart was now so loud. "I Love you".
Against all the rules, all social norms against all the things I could have said. I love you I said it. This was it, I thought this is the question that will prove it. Whether shes real or fake whether I'm crazy or not whether I'm alive or not. I stand there staring at her captivated yet petrified. at that moment she was so beautiful so horrifying so mysterious so dangerous everything I wanted everything I should avoid she was it and her next words would make or break me. As it seems I have pushed myself to a cliff I now wait to see if I have to jump. She stares back at me, eyes partial covered by her bobbed hair cut and she says "OK" I take a breath. I ease up I was prepared for so many things. But I wasn't prepared for confusion.
"Ok" I say as quietly as I can. "Ok" she says "but I don't even know your name" It's Brenden I say hardly making any eye contact at all. "I'm Eleven" She says. I look up at her even more confused now what does she mean by shes eleven? Shes smiling at me "HEY"! I hear a voice that breaks my train of thought. Then BOOM I crash to the ground. As I look up I see a giant with angry eyes furious as though I had wronged him in some way. "Did you say you love her" He says angrily "Did you say you love my girl?" It starts to rain.
I...I am speechless I am empty, but..but I'm also full I can't describe it. the Giant raises his foot and begins to stomp on me. He curses and shouts he is relentless in his strikes. The girls stands now at my feet her eyes perfectly covered shes smiles at me In a way that fills me with nothing but uncertainty. I make little attempt to guard myself my body acts on it's own to protect it's self. Showing me a pure and true separation of mind and body. I don't know many thing right now all I know for sure is that I am truly here and that this is real. this is real and this is pain. He beats me for a time until he tires angry I think that he has gotten no reaction from me.
he waves his hands angrily glaring and pointing at me. He leaves, now in the pouring rain it's just me and her.
I make no attempt now to get close to her. In so many ways I am terrified of her, shes smiles and leans into me "Brenden" she says I look to her she is now right over me my eyes locked with hers "Wanna do that Human thing?"
And we did through and through we did and when it comes down to it there are no words to describe it. It's just kind of a...Boom.
The sun glows brightly when I wake up. I'm at school before I can even realize it. Day in day out this is me. Sometimes I wonder if I'm dead, I wonder if I was dead how could i even tell.

My secret goodbye
My Secret Goodbye
Scared to write my last poem
cause it means beginning something new
when you think your good at something
sometimes it's too good to be true
a part of me wants to keep writing
now until the end of time
but my compulsion stops me
in the back of my mind
I feel like some people read
but I'm my biggest fan
I feel like someone might understand me
but I'm the only one that understands
with my poems I reach out
but my words stand alone
somehow I manage
cause my words are my home
this is my goodbye poem
it's not in the set
this is my uncertainty
here's to my regret
this is the hope
that I get to achieve
all of the dreams in
which I truly believe
that I go somewhere
in this wonderful world
hopefully in hand
with a beautiful girl
I hope you've enjoyed this journey
in some little way
you now have a piece of my mind
come what may
this is goodbye
for now I'm done
I attempt my own advice
and head towards the sun...
So I felt like writing something, but I couldn't because I'm only doing one more poem and this isn't it. So I wrote a poem about how I secretly want to write more poems. I wrote about how I won't let my self and I wrote about how I will miss this. Sometimes we are our own worst enemies. But I will move forward and I think this is best. ( I think this gamble is best...I think) I want to hope I've made some people think about life. that I'm not just saying shit, that I got this message that maybe you should hear. Hopefully someone will see. Then it will all have been worth it.

So I wrote about Rats
So I wrote about rats today as I said I would and it turned out fucking great! Some Poems I have to really think about while I write but these just came to me (I think it was because the music was so good :) I really like it when poems just come to me. One particular thing about this poem is that I wrote it in two which is different I've never done that before but I think it's justified. In any case I'm going to post them here and I might re-post them soon enough as I've been thinking of putting all my poems on this blog.
Oh last thing before you read it both of these poems were inspired by the same song but were written while I listened to different parts. Please read according if possible (at the very least listen to the whole song) oh if you haven't been clicking the links at the bottom of my poems please do more important then what I'm writing is the feeling you get from it. Which I believe is better revived from music!
This part was written with the first 3:23 minutes in mind.
they live in the street
and to eat crumbs
they must compete!
but that's ok
because rats know
that their time
approaches slow
so they scurry and wait
they steal what they must
they are seen as a burden
but sometimes that's a plus
ya see
in history
traditionally
humans don't like rats.....
so the rats must wait
they must deal with the hate
they must dream away
and await the day
that they get to play
in the sun all day
the rat revolution is at hand
and trust me it will be grand
we will march accepted
and our ways will be protected
no longer subjugated to hate
free to give as much as we take
rats and people have so much in common
one day they say, we will see
and what dose it mean to be a rat
why it means to be free!
(Neat eh well part two was written to the rest of the song)
and that's a fact
and everyday he woke up
they told him how to act
Williams was a rat
that was stuck in a shell
the shell was his city
and his city was hell
and everyday Williams would steal
he would steal from the people
so his stomach he could fill
he didn't feel bad
because deep down he knew
that he was only a rat
there was only so much he could do
but... in his dreams he was a king
and everyone loved him
people adored him
they wanted to become him
William stole and heavy was his heart
all he knew was stealing
right from the start
what of the king who steals
William thought as he ran
if I am a rat that steals
then that just who I am!
But I can steal fear!
I can steal doubt!
I can steal the emotions
that people are better off without.
and without hate there is only love
and with love there is a place for all creatures above.
William ran with thoughts racing through is mind
he was done with running this time
he stood there and let the humans catch up
he then looked up and he said "enough"
"I am the king of rats and this is true"
"and it is I who will steal from you"
"I will steal your hate of my race"
"you're discontent"
"I will steal your malice"
"and I represent"
"every rat"
"that lives in the city"
"and it is not I"
"that require your pity"
"I have no regrets that I was born a rat"
"we are creatures of the same god that's a fact"
The humans looked at the rat confused
he did not run and was not amused
he squeaked with such confidence in his voice
he stole their hate and they rejoiced...
William, king of the rats the people did sing
he stole the language barrier
we understood everything
Creatures under the same god
ain't that the case
each with our different talents
occupying the same space
William the king of the rats
stole for the rest of his days
he stole the peoples problems and their wicked ways
he was hailed as the greatest of rat kings
and he smiled a big smile
when he dreamed fantastic dreams.
(I think that was cool shit :)
Now for thouse of you that do not know me well let me briefly explain why I wrote about rats. I love animals (all of them) but I feel a certain kinship with a few species. Namely Rabbits, Rats, Octopuses and foxes. I have written about three of the four I feel this kinship with. Now I haven't really explained why I feel this kinship and I don't plan two anymore. (Maybe later)
Last but not least I am only doing eight more poems on face book. Because I want to dedicate more time to art. So...yea I'll go more into that later
I don't got a lot of art to post but the plan in to change that.
This is a picture that was taken of me that I messed around with. Well that's all tell me what you think of the poems good day.
Oh last thing before you read it both of these poems were inspired by the same song but were written while I listened to different parts. Please read according if possible (at the very least listen to the whole song) oh if you haven't been clicking the links at the bottom of my poems please do more important then what I'm writing is the feeling you get from it.

Life's not easy for rats

"and it is not I"
"that require your pity"
"I have no regrets that I was born a rat"
"we are creatures of the same god that's a fact"
The humans looked at the rat confused
he did not run and was not amused
he squeaked with such confidence in his voice
he stole their hate and they rejoiced...
William, king of the rats the people did sing
he stole the language barrier
we understood everything
Creatures under the same god
ain't that the case
each with our different talents
occupying the same space
William the king of the rats
stole for the rest of his days
he stole the peoples problems and their wicked ways
he was hailed as the greatest of rat kings
and he smiled a big smile
when he dreamed fantastic dreams.
(I think that was cool shit :)
Now for thouse of you that do not know me well let me briefly explain why I wrote about rats. I love animals (all of them) but I feel a certain kinship with a few species. Namely Rabbits, Rats, Octopuses and foxes. I have written about three of the four I feel this kinship with. Now I haven't really explained why I feel this kinship and I don't plan two anymore. (Maybe later)
Last but not least I am only doing eight more poems on face book. Because I want to dedicate more time to art. So...yea I'll go more into that later
I don't got a lot of art to post but the plan in to change that.
This is a picture that was taken of me that I messed around with. Well that's all tell me what you think of the poems good day.

Rats and Octopuses
I'm listening to Radio head but when finished this I was specifically listing too Nice Dream
Well I wanted some more time to pass before I wrote something but I figure I'm bored now so I'll write something now...
Last semester there was this girl I uses to talk too on occasion. On the last day of classes she said to me " Donovan this might the last time I see you...". To which I said "Lucky you" I thought it was a clever things to say. Guess I still don't understand girls so well lol.
I'm only writing 11 more poems on Facebook (or so I tell myself) I really feel like I should be drawing when bored not writing. I don't know when I got into the habit of writing, it's not a bad habit but I feel like if I'm majoring in illustration I should be practicing at that a bit more. I feel very weird about this whole poetry thing I did. It kinda came out of no where and I just kept with it the only reason I would do another one was because I liked how the last one came out. None of them describe all too much they are kind of like little tid bit's of my mind set at the time. Almost like they are notes on things I should remember about my self when I was this old. Maybe when I'm older I'll do a hundred more poems as compare and contrast how I think now compared to then. Wow it's even weirder now to think of the last hundred poems as a time capsule to my own thoughts.
For these last couple of poems I will write about rats and octopuses thoughts of you that know me well will know why. I will write to some of the music in my life that never gets old. I've learned a lot in the past couple of years through my poetry but to be honest I always thought my writing was good I now want to focus on something I'm bad at. I don't know when these last poems will be complete I never put a date on myself when it comes to them anyway. But I feel this marks the end of something and the beginning of something else, it's exciting and a little sad at the same time. But hey that's change so bring it on I suppose.
But what else is new I still haven't found out what this blog is going to be about it seems it will be more random scribblings then anything else for the time being. I hope your ok with that who ever you are. I just reserved a hotel room for Anime Matsuri I to have all sorts of fun. It's a one bed hotel room and I'm splitting it with like 6 or 7 people if you want to come and need a hotel hit me up. If it sounds fishy it's probably cause you don't know who these things work trust me they are very fishy. I'm also starting a makeshift art club out of my house. the objective is simple meet up with other so called artists and do art things be it drawing painting writing movie making etc.
I'm also thinking of doing a low budget film... Argg my mind is all a flutter with bull shit I want to do and here I am just writing about it arrg.
Also MLA format is bull shit...
did this for a HCC college art class I think it came out ok.

Talking to yourself
This song is meh
So is this one
But that's what I was listening too so what are ya going to do...
So uhh whats new. I mean whats new with you
and uhh how do ya do. and umm so on and so forth come what may and what not's ya know
So now that that's done it would seem I'm psyched for Marvel vs Capcom three. (so ya I'm not all riddles and shit) I likey the Video Game. In Fact that's kinda what I'm about that and art and ya know other stuff. in any case I wasn't so excited but some game play videos changed all that now I'm all like fuck yes.

Ain't that a bit of bad ass, and even though Phoenix looks tottaly broken. (She totally dose)
I reckon I might play it any way. the game seems to dive into individual characters combo potential more no longer is the game about finding the best ways to combo based on team comp. Right now I look forward to playing Amaterasu, chun li and spider man
Spiderman
Amaterasu
No video for just chun li (Sucks really)
Other then that Benn thinking of doing some RP stuff. For those of you that don't know RP stands for Role Play (Because I am a huge nerd no joke) I like to role play because I find this place to be droll. No joke I write and tell stories because as amazing as this place is the only thing more amazing is the fact that this amazing place inspires things much more amazing. But we stuck here so we read books we watch movies we listen to music. And some of us role play, if you haven't tried it I suggest you try I've it's like the first two mediums except the story revolves specifically around you it's very addicting.
In any case after Narrator my own game with some friends of mine for a couple of years. (12 to be exact :P) I've decided to try something more structured and DM a D&D game. But first I kinda need to learn to play... So this Thursday I think I'll be at heroes officially trying to learn some of this game.I also made a character for a D&D game my friend is hosting online. He's a Monk with some issues I might get into that later.
Geeze it's 5:00 in the morning this has to stop school is starting soon... Oh well wow ( World of Warcraft) time ran out so I done with that for a while. It's kind of a relief that shit takes too much time. I got other shit I want to play in the mean time. lately I've been on a broken social scene trip it's unique stuff. Yes unique. Ya know it just occurred to me I think I want people to read this blog. It's less weird then my poetry, but my poetry it much more popular, even though I don't advertise it. Maybe I should advertise this and suggest people read it, this is more me any way what do you think. (as I listen for crickets)
I don't know whats this blog is all about yet so bare with me if you're looking for some kind of consistency(listen to me writing to my self what a crazy???) I was going to do a poem to the song hotel but it's not that good...ya know? Anyway heres the drawing this time it's old. But one of my favs
I'll tell ya what if you read what I wrote you pick the song and I'll write a poem to it for fun.
first comment wins. (Unless I'm talking to myself )

I want people to see me as a villain
But then the user got rid of it then I couldn't remember what song it was so...here is another song
Hopefully I diden't post this already...
Too easily do I get caught up in cycles. So very easily do I get swamped with repetition. So I decided to take a note from Hey jude and just write some shit. Last time I posted I wrote a story now I feel like I should be writing a story. But to keep coming up with new contend is kind of a lot of pressure so I think I'll just write for now.
Other people seem to have interesting things to talk about. Well I don't well nothing to terribly relevant I'm human you know. So my moods change write now I feel content which means I'm lax. This is pretty common for me. It might be the default for this blog.
I dislike writing... even more I dislike reading ( this relates directly to why I'm stupid). But for as much as I dislike writing I do it. Because I think I'm good at it (how narcissistic right?). And maybe because deep down I like it (I really don't know yet) I write lots of poetry I like every single one of them, but I never tag anyone in them. (there on facebook). I've been thinking I might post them here at one point. But it would be one hell of an undertaking. There are now 85 of them...
My thoughts travel faster then my fingers so I seem to skip words when I go back and read things. Sometimes I write other things entirely (it might be a subconscious thing!) I'll fix what I caught but don't expect me to go back and read this stuff that's not what this is about (I'm not sure what it's about). But if something read wrong bare with me please. I'm not that smart. ( I think I'm really smart but can't spell worth a shit)
I think I'm going to be honest writing this (I hesitated as I typed that) That means I'm gonna be honest with shit. It's a scary concept I know if you don't like it I urge you not to read past this point. I have a fun idea if it's in parentheses then it's a hundred percent what I'm really thinking. (promise)
I'm a wanna be artist I want to get better though I'll start practicing once school starts. I want to do a comic or something I need more dedication. Ya know I write how I speak I ramble. These things could turn out to be pretty long. (I might even convince myself one day that I'm a writer).
(I love this life but I'm kinda bored I'm looking for someone)
tell you the truth this whole thing feels girly. But I write poetry and that pretty girly. (this thing is red, is Girly not a word absurd!)Not sure what to say about that. I like Dinosaurs I think that should some up my masculinity.
I'm running out of stuff to write about right now. Just as well I got nerd stuff I should probably take care of so heres some art stuff I did last semester.
I got inspire by some banksy art and had to draw a rat. (rat one of my favorite animals by the way)
I did this for an upstart company Apparently it's on a T shirt somewhere ( I never got one >:( )
My traditional art is better...

Life on a pillow
Read listen relax
He said, "What would you say if I said I was here to save you"? I told him "I would say you were crazy no one can save me but me and someday soon I will be free". Then he smiled, But to be honest I don't know what he had to be smiling about. Here I was on top of a building scared out of my mind. Time was running out and I couldn't be sure if I had the energy to press the snooze button on life again.
Do you always come up here bare foot? He asked. Concrete feels more real to me then grass you know. It's rough and it's solid its everything real. "Real can't be soft"? He said admiring the city view looking no where at me. I was pissed now why would he come up here to start asking me all these questions, he doesn't even look me in the eye as he talks infuriated I yell "whats so real about soft Life isn't soft". Yea he said "Life isn't soft". "Especially if your the girl that walks barefoot on concrete" he said looking at me with a smile.
"Fuck it..." I said as I let go. "Fuck it I hate him... " I said as I fell. I don't like rough but it's all I know, It figures that pavement is the way that I'll go. Why not even in the end couldn't someone be nice, someone be sweet, ...soft. I mean I've known him since... wait.
As I fell with the pavement was fast approaching it dawned on me that I didn't even know the boy our first meeting would be our last. This realization was rough as rough as the pavement I would soon be colliding with. Suttle with no remorse this was life in it's purest form. Why, why did this have to happen He said he was here to save me. Yet he didn't know me, could he tell I was going to jump was he trying to talk me down? But I jumped because I thought he was being cold. This is life in it's purest form.
But I didn't understand it in the end I wished for something soft, in the end I threw it away. A single tear is all I have left to offer the world.
If I closed my eyes now maybe. Life would forgive me maybe life would let me take it all back
I lay in grass now I see no gray the earth is green I think I like it this way. "Green is a cool color" he said. "yea" I said "I really like it"
I was dress in a white dress powerless to get up perfectly content to lay here forever the grass is the only place I wanted to be.
"Thank you for saving me" I tell him
Are you crazy? he said
What? I ask a little confused
"If you were to ask me if I could save you..."
"I would say you were crazy no one can save you but you and someday soon you would be free."
After her said that I had many more tears to offer the world then.
The boy reached out and hugged me he said he was rooting for me.
to give it my best shot.
I opened my eyes then.
my pillow was soaked but that was fine because it was very soft.
I wear shoes on the concrete now. But I like to walk bare foot in the grass.
It's soft but rough enough to remind me whats real.
Which is the way I like it.
