Venasque.
One without long, strong branches and a trunk like molasses, I don't know where my head would've been.
It's easy to understand with this mindset that the sand that cascaded the landscape,
Back when my soul was nothing more than an egg under the incubator,
Was not merely thrown there, but was heaved up by some underlying energy.
But it doesn't matter to me now, as I walk across the pure yellow grain,
And tilt my head backwards to catch a full breath of the liquefied air.
Then my gaze wanders until it's caught hook-line-and-sinker on the rocks and their monotonous crashing against the water.
We meet hardships, hardships don't meet us.
And as I walk the extreme landscape,
With colors so bright and bold,
It seems as if there would be a war, for there were too many intense differences.
I come upon my tree and climb it, in order to look down on everything.
I felt like God.
Looking down upon all of his creation with nothing more than love and awe in my heart.
And I still go there sometimes,
If I can find the time to want nothing and to love everything.

Unfinished 1984.
Quiet time now, please.
It's that time when the cyrsanthimums shouldn't blossom.
I'm at that place in my life right now where I wish the moon wouldn't invade my thoughts.
I asked the waves to settle, but they only upset me with disobedience.
Quiet time, quiet time is an idea, a philosophy that I've developed over the course of years and months.
It's taken many journeys, many trials, love, and an avid hate for everything.
I'm loath about the turnout of this meeting, of the apparent apathy for the quiet.
When everything is still, everything is quiet, that's the new paradigm.
That's the only paradigm.
If only you would listen to the thoughts of nothing, you wouldn't need to tolerate.
Tomorrow.
somewhere where I can't be found by the justice blanances the float around and dry the waters and boast the earth, the same eyes that dried the drips from the hearse, and the lips of the seal that flat-out blubbered its teal feelings of nothing,
the ones that found me and something else that was of importance to it,
for tomorrow is the day that loses its wits because there was never a day so mentally intact as to chose its humanity with the right track of decisions and careful incisions into the proper God mind that feels the terrible contracts that contract our kind, because tomorrow is a day that knows no harm, but by the law of humanity should be heavily alarmed to the status of the dawn no approaching, now rising, moving on like a clock that is nothing to the findings of trains and of leads and various coasts and reeds, because tomorrow is a day that knows no harm, with a infantile body and a cherub-like garm, head in the heavens with no sight and no arms, sitting beside nothing waiting to be spawned, which makes me feel the weight of drain-o and the lever cleaving leaves that insist on the sanity of the patriarchal community, for immunity in tomorrow is the penicillin it must borrow from perfection which is out of its reach, an inhabitant of a universe outside of our sheath in this closed universe of closed minds and still time, which is snynonomous with the name of my cellophane rhine, and breaks the seeds of this leading tall kneads, so I fall to my knees and love the only thing I see, for the mind is always searching for something out of me, something better than my condition with a falsely drawn premonition of a day when the mission is to simply be an addition to the world and the peace of it all, and that day is tomorrow when I go elsewhere and claw at the fabrics of civilization and the handholds of simulation which in turn upset this body, because there's nothing to pour but coffee that's poured at the same time everyday, never changing its sway, because of the peace that dies today that thoroughly shows me the words I say when I utter that tomorrow is innocent when it's already killed so many, tomorrow is not innocent because it's already taken so many, its already fed on lives to keep the constant cycle pretty for the eyes of some elated child-like giddy-grit, who decides to drive tomorrow with its horrible slave whip to do what today has not accomplish and to break open our whits, to take over tomorrow's mind and control it to the stitch, however I still love tomorrow, because it's basically not today, and it can hold something elsewhere that can be a shiny day, but as I lay my head tonight, I think of what follows; the thoughts that go through my head: hopefully I can sit still and say, tomorrow transcends today, and I will love tomorrow.

NOW and THEN.
I am the flat note, the one that a player mistakenly plays.
I am a short skirt, for no matter how much you pull me down, I still reveal too much.
I am a sacred fire, one of which is the severed part of a renowned civilization.
I am a disgraced dragon, one with a limp leg and a broken wing.
I am water, which transcends all cracks and ninnie's and covers all with its glittery apathy.
I am a cloudy shroud worn around the shoulders of a Chinese Communist, as if it were not enough that it was a Chinese Communist.
I am a the sporadic heart beat of a dying old man.
I am the reaches of humanity.
I am the drawing of a steering wheel; I can't drive without someone behind me.
I am the calm before the storm, the storm, the sunshine afterwards, also.
I am the fall, because everything dies, everything's remembered in the fall.
I am the gentle smash of the waves against the eroding rock, slowly and unknowingly weathering it away.
I am a cascade of images splattered across a wall, belonging to an artist who doesn't remember he drew them.
I am an artist displaying his images, without memory of drawing them.
I am the universe, and the universe is me; I am its infinite energy, the space, the time, the understanding, the misunderstanding, the reality, the matrix, the feigning, the realizing, the misjudgement, the beginning, the end, the struggle, the success, the want, the need, the satisfaction, the love.
I am manatee gray, with cuts along along my sides.
I am a psychologist, compensating my problems with the problems of others.
I am the glorious aftershave to a god's slashed beard, and the hairs the adorn the floor in the razor's wake.
I am the fiery upset of the world, confined into a container for compact transportation.
However, I am the face of the clock, not questioning its existence, but realizing its only purpose is to pass time, time, time.

1984 PLAY GUYS.
ROSETTA: (blonde beside him who stops rioting in order to shout at Clooney) Can’t you see that you’re… you’re just one in twenty-four? Have you ever thought, just for a moment, that we’re not doing this for you?
GEORGE: (a thin man standing to the right of Clooney) Yeah, I… I do believe… I do believe that your… yer selfish-osity is quite the… epitome… of…
CLOONEY: (interrupts George) Oh, hush! But sometimes, I do wonder, (turning back to ROSETTA) are you putting us under? How many times have we had it at before? Have you even understood my inherent need? My incessant lust? Or do you just jump to tease me, and do you speak just to be abrasive?
MAUDE: (brunette beside Clooney) But they’ll make examples of you!
ROSETTA: (Jumps in before MAUDE can say anymore) No, I wanted him! (Bumps into MAUDE and falls into GEORGE’S arms)
CLOONEY: Say no more, say no more, because I see now… You were never here for me. Last night… what we talked about… It made so much sense. But the haze is descended… Now… it doesn’t make sense. But what does? Why are we even here? Where are the gas tanks and flooded pipes? Are we even here for a cause? I was here for a cause. But that cause flew out of my arms, because she didn’t know how to start a relationship.
GEORGE: (Looks at CLOONEY with upset eyes) But love! We did… speak of summat, but… it was too dark for… a full-throttle analysis. What do you think…? Betty? Have you…
ROSETTA: You might wear classic Reeboks, but you miss the point! We’re not here for you! We’re not here for you! There’s no romance around here! We have our minds made up, and look. Over there there’s broken bones… Well, if you would like (looks at GEORGE)
CLAUDE: (looks at GEORGE at the same time)
CLAUDE and ROSETTA: (speaking quizzically to George) We could tell them all tonight.
CLOONEY: (Looks terrified at an approaching police car) No time, no time! On rolls the riot van! We have to run, or we won’t be able to chill our bones correctly tonight. Enough with the romance on rolls the riot van!
CLAUDE and ROSETTA: Or we could tell them all tonight.
GEORGE: Tell them all tonight.
(Out of the police car comes one police man, though there’s another man sitting in the front seat)
POLICE MAN: Why don’t you run? Haven’t you heard? I’m here to kick you out.
GEORGE: But… we’re going to tell them all tonight.
CLOONEY: NO! We musn’t! (Pulls out a shotgun) Let me tell you a story.
(ROSETTA climbs down from GEORGE’S arms and hugs her knees on the floor. MAUDE sits on top of ROSETTA’S knees and eventually falls. George stands behind the two, leaning on the police officer. The police officer looks unsure, with his hand on his holster, but still stays to hear the story)
CLOONEY: (begins to pace, and then spits) You people are vampires! Do you not know why we’re here?
MAUDE, ROSETTA and GEORGE begin to improvise, each character saying nonsensical things)
CLOONEY: NO! No, you guys are wrong! If you wanted to truly become ignorant fucks, then you would go back to 505. Go back to 505! No only is it a 7 hour flight, but it’s also a forty-five minute drive. Now, I know what I’m here for. I’m here for your love, lady. I always imagined you lying in that room… with you hands between your thighs. But the dogs came, and we were cast out. You saw it, you smelled it! You smelled the castor oil and the piggish hands! You understood me when I told you that our bull meat was being eaten by those nasty, piggish hands. When we were sapped up by those disgusting pigs mouths, yet we just… stood there and caressed our minds with thoughts of love… of 505, of thinking she’s the one. Though you say that may’ve been me, you must wonder: just ‘cuz everybody’s doing it, does that mean that I can to? Ask yourself that question, and tell me, why do you give in to the hands of the pigs? Now, let me tell you a story about pigs. Though, I do realize that it won’t… change a thing… When I was a child, my friends, my family… we made chocolate cream. Indeed, we harvested our crop and we put chocolate to our cream. I was the pride of the family with my fast hands, and my bullish meat and mind. We supported each other, we supported our family and our neighbors. But the pig came! That terrible day, with that terrible pig. The pig wanted to show us the wonders of everything, and played to our desires. He gave us everything, nuzzling our spotted brown muzzles with the idea of rich and famous. But then, my friends, the pig took away our chocolate creaming ordeal and sent us to factories.

Ew. 1984.
They gleam at me,
Catching my eye.
Now, says I, I would like to take them.
My brow furrowed.
And I began to sweat.
Bulgari-Assoma sweetened my lips,
As I rolled out my blue plans.
I sat there sweating,
Because I wanted those watches.
But I have to wait.
Because I'm only a child,
And besides.
Watches only do so much.

Coffee bean stare.
Last night, after I chopped myself to pieces
I got a coffee and it was good.
But the atmosphere still held the questioning affair,
Since I failed at drowning confusion in blood.
But sometimes, they say, ignorance is bliss,
Which is only true when the bass plays a different chord than you thought.
So I'm sitting below the ochestra crying,
With a vanity mirror sitting in front of me.
And how glass works is such a delightful metaphor,
Casting one shadow on one plain and another on another.
So blame me please, because it's all my fault.
I know, I drank the last of the bean.
I pilfered the essence of the dining room table,
And slash-and-burn planted my crops in your heart.
It was what I wanted all my life, and you could've just told me.
Next time you decide to feed the flames,
Feed them with our combined effort.
At least converse about the coffeehouse manner,
Before you intend to draw the conclusion.
And so I sit in chopped up pieces.
Feeling worse than before.

Truth.
Felt the beer coming off of him,
You would've done the same thing.
And tried to quiet him when he told you "the truth."
"The truth," he says, and I say, "my wife's pregnant,"
"Well, that's good," he says, and I say, "no, I can't talk to you right now. I broke my arm."
"Well, that's too bad, but the truth," he says, and I say, "I was in a driving accident,"
"Oh, that's bad! But the truth," he says, and I say, "I have a chronic speaking disorder, making me unable to speak rationally to you for more than two seconds."
"My poor man! but the truth," he says, and I say, "I'm deaf."
"How horrible! But the truth," he says, and I say, "Old man, don't tell me the truth is. I know all the truths, I know every single one. And there's no way in your inebriated state you could tell me the 'truth', and there is no way that you could possibly be anymore truthful than me. So sir, I ask you to leave me to tend to my many cats, and drink my 1775 sherry."
"Sir, I seem to think that you're not telling the truth. And in fact, I am not drunk. Indeed I can smell the liquor off of your breath, and feel your loss. I've watched you for days now, trying to approach you with the truth about your deceased wife, but each time, you feed me new lines that are incredibly obscene and belligerent. But this time, I think you should know the truth. Your wife wasn't killed in that house fire, she died trying to protect your daughter from a burglar. She died with a knife in her hand, wounding the assailant and allowing your daughter to flee." He says. And I say, "My wife died.... in a house fire..."

Travesty. 1984.
That shouts, “I tie the ribbon in a foolish way.”
And the giggle of the scoff beneath the high top’s moustache;
To you its dissension doesn’t match the jolly red and white.
While feeding on the Elvin styles of that day,
Visible is the triumphant clause made with the star on pine,
Shedding bits of sprinkles and dust onto the Capitalist
Turning his head upward, with a glittery murmur,
He shouts “the delicious fragility of this travesty!"
And explodes into a community of feather-tipped confetti
Jingling the bells to a happy smile's note.
You recline and think your jellybean thoughts,
Feeling the calm rigidity and flowering of the air
Like a volcano your placid Christmas erupts, and you snooze to the place
Where we still laugh and wish.
PSYCHE.
Scarlet
The Psychologist brought home a picture he drew of his mom, his self and his dog. All the school had was red crayons. With a beaming smile, The Psychologist showed his mother the crude drawing. Her eyes dilated. Her smile turned into disgust and her eyebrows turned into hatred. She grabbed The Psychologist by his neck. Never again, she breathed, never again will you bring that, that, devil, into my house. His eyes were wide and filled with fear. She burned the picture, his mom and his dog going up in flames.
Prussian blue
The Psychologist looked outside. The sky was blue. His teacher told him to come back from time-out. He reluctantly pulled away from the window. What’s wrong with you? she silently muttered to herself.
Giving tree green
She was sitting outside in the grass, crying. The Psychologist didn’t understand why she was crying. He went over to inquire about her condition, and when he asked about it she smacked him. He didn’t understand. So he sat in the grass beside her and cried.
Timberwolf/Old man granite gray
He got into his father’s van. It was one of the few days that he got to see him, and they had arrived at Niagara Falls. He was excited. He opened the door and it hit the car beside him. The car now held a big gray streak. His father was infuriated. He punched The Psychologist in the face once, twice, three times, and screamed profanities at his innocent child. The Psychologist cried. He didn’t understand why his father was doing this, and so he cried.
Torch red
His house burned down. He stared at it with tears in his eyes. At his aunt's house he learned that neither his mom nor his dog survived.
Wild blue
The Psychologist looked outside. The sky was blue. He was muttering to himself. The principal called him into her office, What's wrong with you? She breathed.
Heavy black
He held the gun, shaking. The voices urged him on. Do it, they chanted. Do it, do it, do it. Another voice intruded his head. Don’t, please don’t kill me. The sleeping man was talking to him. Do it, No, don’t! Do it! No, don’t! Do it now! No! No please, have mercy! With a hideous scream he shot himself in the head.
Alizarin and electric indigo
He awoke in the hospital. You just barely missed, son. You’re lucky. But you’re brain is severely damaged, and unfortunately you’ll most likely be in a wheelchair the rest of your life.
Outer space and manatee
The Psychologist was comfortable in the patent leather burgundy chair. He looked around in amazement at all the certificates of completion, all the books and unnecessary curios. He looked at the psychologist’s face, at his warm smile, his round-rimmed wire framed glasses and his thinning hair and smiled. He felt warm. It felt like home. The psychologist told him they were going to play a game. He held up a picture with confused blots of black and white. Boy, he said, what do you see? The Psychologist answered, Love.
Corn
She was happy, sitting in the grass under the yellow leaves. He asked her why she was happy. She kissed him. He didn’t understand why she did, but now he was happy too.
Royal purple and canary, cloudy sky
He wheeled across the stage, beaming. He took his diploma and stood on the stage for a moment, holding up the stream of new graduates. His eyes glazed over as he began to remember all the things inhibiting him from this moment. Then he began to remember his constant question, “why?” The audience was confused when his face turned gloomy.
Black and white
He looked around pensively at all the certificates on the wall. His shelf had collected clutter, and he smiled at it. The Psychologist’s door opened, and in came a small youth. Good afternoon, boy said the psychologist. Have a seat. The boy sat in the burgundy chair and his face lit up. He looked at The Psychologist wearily, moving his eyes back and forth, blushing. The Psychologist smiles. It’s okay, son. I’m here for you. And it was like all the years of torment came back to him in the little boy’s grimace. And after the child was done, all he had to say was, “why?”
Heart red
At work, The Psychologist looked on his desk. There was a picture of him, with his wispy brown hair, his big wire-rimmed glasses and his wheelchair. One of his patients was next to him, a tiny stick figure. They were both smiling. They’re lips were red. So was the sun, so was the grass, so was he. And The Psychologist cried.

Megabytes 1984.
It may hurt to not understand the issue that's at hand, but you won't think twice due to whatever's in here.
Oh, so your megabytes are in dissarray, you say? Were they ever in array? Don't think about it, just take whatever's in here.
I said for you to shush, let the mainframe work; bequiet and take whatever's in here.
So tell me about yourself, tell me about these various electrons and atoms, megabytes and terrabytes flowing through your "existence." Or are you nothing but an extension of the mainframe, tell me that? The mainframe that doesn't exist? But it matters not, since you're to take whatever's in here.
It's all we have left, I'm sorry. Just take whatever's in here and I assure you you will feel better.
Oh no, oh no. I did not expect this. Whatever's in here must be poisonous, or perhaps you haven't taken it right. Regardless, your electrons and megabytes have gone away, probably to heaven. You'll probably fall over in a minute. And I declare to you, for that predicament, you need to take whatever's in here...
Positively 1984.
Speaking only metaphorically, nothing is seen as so, positively speaking.
Do you understand the play on words, by thinking of the different ways that it's good.
Speaking only metaphorically, why do you not log on to the world and search for the love, positively speaking.
Only positively speaking, a metaphor for everything that we lack is negative, and so I'm caught in my own fault.
Positively speaking, should I not be speaking in different words, words that don't hold negative connotations?
But nothing is seen as so, so why should it matter the outlook of this metaphor, speaking positively.
No one understands me, speaking positively, however metaphorically, if you decide to interpret it that way.
Though I doubt it, for nothing is seen as so.
Grain, 1984.
A bad time of famine throughout the east, and a bad taste of wealth against Siddartha's tongue.
The grain is like the touch of Moses, and the resolve of the least favored
In the storehouse is not only what's to be caught, but also what is to be given to the ones that have everything.
Only, that is how it happens in the illusion where work is worth.
How corrupt, how corrupt and cojoiling is this teeth of this beast, who snaps you up with the idea of making it for yourself in the belly.
The humor in it is that even in being snatched up by the evil of the self, you're much more content with the evil of self than with the good of others.
And some would ask, why is that?
But some will sit and laugh, and drink.
And fight.
1984.
It brings tears to my eyes, going back through my geneality, bringing lashes to mine older.
Crimes against the paid ones wash over the side of my body, and make me restless against the grain of a solid table.
Suspension isn't all that bad, they say, when you've got a tube in your head.
2. Suspend the number of tries for you to have me fall from here. And you try it again and again, because of the cruelty and judgement in your sleep.Fell from the time of suspend, karma enraged and wrapped around my finger.The ligaments in my back broke.

Communism.
Marxists, or communists, base their political views on their philosophical views. They practice dialectics, which is to say that they use contradictions to resolve a problem and that everything is made up of opposing forces. Dialectics also sees things at their essence, rather than simply looking at their appearance, to find that everything is relative. Change is also a big part of dialectics, and it stresses cause and effect.
To grasp dialectics might be confusing, but it can also be as easy as 1-2-3.
One - Everything is made of opposing forces.
Two- Gradual change leads to turning points where one force overcomes the other.

These laws hold true everywhere; science, the social theatre and psychological realm. And these true thoughts are the basis for communist philosophy.
To put Marxism-- often considered true communism-- into laymen terms is very difficult, and nearly impossible. But I will try to explain it. Marxism is a branch off of socialism, which is a very wide ideology and simply asks for the degradation of individual states and countries, and is called the intermediary between capitalism and communism. First of all, communism is a utopia. Every one's classless and equal. Marxism is the means to get to the end, as communists will say. Karl Marx believed that the proletariat must revolt, and only when the proletariat comes up against the bourgeoisie will communism start.
Now, due to American propaganda and the selfishness that goes along with capitalism, the ideals of a communist world have been trampled and tossed aside without a second look. Since the idea of collectivism threatens to take away a person's individual money, people get protective and ignorant. People also argue that communism has killed 20 million people, which is not completely true. Even though communists like Stalin and Lenin and Mao have tried to achieve communism, they haven't and ended up with totalitarian governments.
In truth, in a communist world there would be no alienation of labor, which can be translated into alienation from labor. Alienation of labor is most apparent in factory work, where you are not individually involved in your product, and can not feel pride for your work. In capitalism, labor has become a Means rather than an End. Means meaning it's become a way to get money rather than a way to live your life, or a tradition, or a cultural statement. In communism, labor is an End, meaning that you can do what ever you'd like and be able to take pride in it; labor would also be one of the main reason for you to live. Say I was a butcher today, I could be a blacksmith tomorrow. Since everyone is maintaining everyone, there's no limit to the dreams you can achieve.
Now, when it comes to brainwashing, doesn't capitalism brainwash you too? But capitalism does it for the worst, making you selfish under the guise of making it for yourself. Pulling yourSELF up by your boot straps. Capitalist governments change their information all the time, and thoroughly control their media and other forms of getting information out to the people. However, in capitalism, since there is no social class, there is no way to misinform a group of people on a widespread basis.
So, in a nutshell, communism is the equality of all people, and a higher level of consciousness. Many things can go wrong in getting to communism, but communism itself is a pure utopia.

November TODAY. 1984.
Scarlet
The Psychologist brought home a picture he drew of his mom, his self and his dog. All the school had was red crayons. With a beaming smile, The Psychologist showed his mother the crude drawing. Her eyes dilated. Her smile turned into disgust and her eyebrows turned into hatred. She grabbed The Psychologist by his neck. Never again, she breathed, never again will you bring that, that, devil, into my house. His eyes were wide and filled with fear. She burned the picture, his mom and his dog going up in flames.
Prussian blue
The Psychologist looked outside. The sky was blue. His teacher told him to come back from time-out. He reluctantly pulled away from the window. What’s wrong with you? she silently muttered to herself.
Giving tree green
She was sitting outside in the grass, crying. The Psychologist didn’t understand why she was crying. He went over to inquire about her condition, and when he asked about it she smacked him. He didn’t understand. So he sat in the grass beside her and cried.
Timberwolf/Old man granite gray
He got into his father’s van. It was one of the few days that he got to see him, and they had arrived at Niagara Falls. He was excited. He opened the door and it hit the car beside him. The car now held a big gray streak. His father was infuriated. He punched The Psychologist in the face once, twice, three times, and screamed profanities at his innocent child. The Psychologist cried. He didn’t understand why his father was doing this, and so he cried.
Torch red
His house burned down. He stared at it with tears in his eyes. At his aunt's house he learned that neither his mom nor his dog survived.
Wild blue
The Psychologist looked outside. The sky was blue. He was muttering to himself. The principal called him into her office, What's wrong with you? She breathed.
Heavy black
He held the gun, shaking. The voices urged him on. Do it, they chanted. Do it, do it, do it. Another voice intruded his head. Don’t, please don’t kill me. The sleeping man was talking to him. Do it, No, don’t! Do it! No, don’t! Do it now! No! No please, have mercy! With a hideous scream he shot himself in the head.
Alizarin and electric indigo
He awoke in the hospital. You just barely missed, son. You’re lucky. But you’re brain is severely damaged, and unfortunately you’ll most likely be in a wheelchair the rest of your life.
Outer space and manatee
The Psychologist was comfortable in the patent leather burgundy chair. He looked around in amazement at all the certificates of completion, all the books and unnecessary curios. He looked at the psychologist’s face, at his warm smile, his round-rimmed wire framed glasses and his thinning hair and smiled. He felt warm. It felt like home. The psychologist told him they were going to play a game. He held up a picture with confused blots of black and white. Boy, he said, what do you see? The Psychologist answered, Love.
Corn
She was happy, sitting in the grass under the yellow leaves. He asked her why she was happy. She kissed him. He didn’t understand why she did, but now he was happy too.
October Today, 1984.
One is an arbitrary silver-red and shines with the brightness of a dull September evening.
One is a luscious yellow-green, which stinks of a human cesspool.
One is the dream of a million kings, gilded in gold with precious jewels adorning the knob.
One is a plain brown, boasting nothing but Jesus himself.
One is a bright orange, emitting heat with it that was eternally and slowly melting the hinges, but not enough to allow a peek.
He was to chose, for beyond one of those doors, infinite knowledge and wealth lie.
But he decided his pacifier was more interesting than anything else.

November 5th
Slowly it became taut
The net beneath our feet
So the lesser one could drop
And now he has
From his acrobatic stand, fell
Unto the earthen ground
And dissolved to wet, hot sand
For weeks now they swung
Back and forth
And traded the baton with a
Condescending force
But now the rope has caught
And the giant cane him come to play
Pulling out the unable
From the taxing fray
And he's humiliated
Laying on the netting of the rope,
Make up smeared
His heart lacks hope
And comparing to a joust,
With two men with poles
Galloping toward eachother
Looking to make a hole
Each gathering friends, fans the like
Cheering for the one
Who they think might.
But when the lesser
Gets impaled by the stick
The fans cry out,
It's the end of his wick.
And so now the strong light is brandished anew
Atop of the thin, tight rope
The net is still taut, for they don't know what he'll do
He might jump off and diminish our hope.
Amen.

In this memory you’re on my back, but now you’re swathed in black and white. Your tiny legs obscure my view, and alter the gelled up image. However, I’m remembering your smile; a flash of awkward, yet sure and confident white that shows that the world indeed has a leash, and that humanity isn’t all that human. What I would do to break that smile out of the glass, to save the small soul from its encasement behind a lifeless and apathetic screen. Into my arms. But I’d have to delve beneath the hospital gown to find the root of your grounding, a fantastic voyage that only a knife could take. I wish I could see you, see you outside of my expectations and false memories. I wish I could see you cuddle your Kayla, who’s just about as big as you.
Sentence 10: Write a sentence in which three or more words alliterate; that is, they begin with the same initial consonant: she has be left, lately, with less and less time to think . . .
Sentence 11: Write a sentence with two commas.
Sentence 12: Write a sentence with a smell and a color in it.
Sentence 13: Write a sentence with a simile (a comparison using like or as).
Sentence 14: Write a sentence that could carry an exclamation point (but do not use the exclamation point).
Sentence 15: Write a sentence to end this portrait that uses the word or words you chose for a title.
Next, read the portrait. Underline sentences in which you discovered new things about this individual or your feelings and attitudes toward him or her.
Now, use this portrait as a starting point for a poem or prose portrait or simply revise what you have. (Be sure to keep a copy of the original, so that you can examine the changes between original and revised piece.) Do anything you need to make this a piece of writing that you like. Choose a new title, use the person’s real name, and so on.

"A single death is a tragedy; a milllion deaths is a statisitc." - Joseph "Stalin"
"The means is justified by the end." - Karl Marx
October 11th
Kharistitution:
For ever man, there should be freedom. I Believe in a gross freedom under a powerful government. However, each separate state would have their SPM, or "society perfection machine." What it would be is the large arm the protects the "stations" from being too oppressed. The SPM would be headed by whomever saw a problem with how the government ruled and wanted to change something. However, in order to change something, it would have to go through moral scrutiny by the people of the state, and also be approved by those on a larger scale, it would eventually have to be voted upon by all the states.
October 12th
SPM.com:
SPM.com would be a social and political networking website geared toward putting democracy back into the hands of the people. The SPM would be the intermediary force between the people and the government. The people would access this website and vote on different legislation, and whether or not they believe it should be passed. It would also be a website for people to bring up their governmental complaints, and their complaints about life in general. However, it will be prohibited to post complaints if the American people ado not find solutions to the problems. After they find solutions, they'd vote on them. If enough people voted a certain way on an issue, it would put stress on the government to act on the ideas, and psass the legislation that the people want.
October 13th
Since there always needs to be a lower class, we could easily appropriate a place for them to stay. We could give them whatever they needed and provide them needed, including education and the chance to obtain promotions. Appropriating them a place to stay wouldn't separate from their family. However, maybe instead of giving them a set place to live, we could track them down and set them up with a job, and adequate housing. Since the lower class sort of runs the world, supporting them and the middle class would be more of a trickle up economic system that would actually work.
October 15th
Crush the feelings inside.
First thing on the to-do list.
Second thing I'm going to do is leave the investigators clueless.
Far too far long have I dealt with retrospect rudeness.
The things I'm going to do today are going tie up all the loose ends.
In other words, the inner I is finally gonna’ to shut up and tell me "you win."
I write in my agenda filled to the brim with a devilish grin.
I plan on giving way to a much, much shallower side.
I plan on feeling dead, dead until I die.
Later on in the evening I think I'll plan to go to dinner.
I'll dine with my soul and later on, I think I’ll win her.
I'll domesticate and duplicate and then I think I'll tie her down.
But you could say I'm going too far as to take away her crown.
And then, the next day, I'm going to go to the coroner.
Get an autopsy done and check out who did the murder.
But it's not for me.I already know who did it, obviously.
It's more to get the emotional police off of my back, I must be free.
Then the next day I'll start anew full of holes and cracks.
Then later that day I'll get some soul and mortar to fix what lacks.
Although when you’re dead and gone you usually don’t grow back.
I'll patch up some of the holes, and clean out what’s left and black.
Follow the recommended procedure and begin to thoroughly pack.
Then the next day I'll walk like nothings wrong.
High strutting with chin up like I got a whole lot going on...
Inside, but the truth is, I died.
A natural death of natural causes, so I feel no need to cry.
It's doublethink at its greatest,
I know I killed myself but lately that's been the vaguest.
And the next day I'll begin to turn up to work again.
I may start to court my blind-eyed, fat friend.
And the next day, when I talk to her once more, I'll feel nothing but lust, as our bodies hit the floor.
Simply because I'm dead, of natural, natural causes.
I consider death by suicide the best of all the losses.
Just don't miss me, my soul's already long gone.
Tomorrow you can mourn.
But it's an empty casket, the body's nowhere to be found.
October 16th
Starshine, so bright, so vivid in my eyes.
From the screen showing lives, bearing no fine line.
There comes a bright light from right beside mine.
It shines forever, dying only when it's my time.
I've forgotten how to bottle it and hold it in my hand.
And I've mistaken its vast star space to be solely my land.
Control is something it slips and sifts through like sand,
And it makes my light rebel from my desperate, confused commands.
My light pulse is set to high now and rising.
The starshine's so beautiful, radiantly enticing.
It's opened my eyes to the art of realizing.
My light is a fire and its slowly sizing.
But still it only flickers, for the starshine is frightening.
Surprising like lightening, like a million moons falling from the sky.
It raises my alarms and makes it hurt to try.
Like four hundred suns blazing in the air.
Just her single starshine wouldn't fail to compare.
Shining strong and high above my pitiful flickering flame.
It sets everything ablaze around my tawny bronze frame.
To touch it, to touch it would surely burn me off.
But I love it so much I wouldn't mind the loss.
Finally.
My light built up the courage to reach out and touch.
Once out of comfort it flared toward her lust.
The starshine, it was waiting for me patiently.
The guards were down around her and the phoenix rode free.
From the sun to the stars in that room full of night,
It came back and kissed my shy, small light.
Then it left.
-------------------------
Boiling rages of fourteen hundred suns.
An uncontrollable ambivalence, a tranquil sort of hostile take over.
Churning, churning, uncharismatic.
Totally spewing.
Crazy, conscious flailing.
The need to break something.
The need to break someone.And then the source comes.
The source makes the river, clashing and eroding.
Rock slide.
Avalanche from the silent voices of innocent looking facades.
Wondering if the pilot should give a FUCK at all.
----------------------------
Trigonometry states that all life is fake.
Now, I didn't think that was right so I went back again.
I checked my textbooks and even asked a friend.
But all the answers around me all bared the same news.
Life is a fallacy forced, not a realistic view.

SHORTSTORYTHATIDON'TWANTTOWRITE.
They always told him he looked ridiculous. Constantly, the other kids would tell him that he was the strangest child that would ever live, and that he would get no where in life. They would tell him that only thing he could probably be successful at, given the way he looked, was killing himself. Generally, if any other kid heard this, they would become very sad, might turn to self-destruction, attempt suicide, fail, drink his liver away, and maybe, eventually, succeed at overdosing. But this boy couldn't hear. Along with talk, and his eyesight wasn't up to par, either. But he could still think. In fact, the child was brilliant. But it was his looks, and his disabilities that hindered him constantly.

Today, I have nothing to write.
I'm going to a meeting soon in order to be enlightened about green energy, which is very important because I'm going to be orienteering and energy project I like to call "Energize." Energize is going to be aimed at separate, but similar goals. The Energize project is going to try and educate people about ways to make sure their houses are energy efficient, and it's also going to try to reform Rochester's definition of "energy efficiency"by implenting small projects devised by the teen participants of the program into different pockets of changeable energy scources.

The upper door is closed to the real area of know.
Simply sits it on the ledge of the now, and sees it only the palpable lore.
Rather it boxes in and structures and sows, what is seen as society: epitome of broken dreams, built from the meager who sit on the feet of the eager cleaver that mows them like meat.
As to compensate a lack of knowledge, the upper door cries.
Its tears drop and on flow the lies, ride the metal beams of institution that plunge themselves in houses, and businesses and honest men, and the smallest of the cities.
And erect themselves strong based on their promise of right.
Convincing themselves even that they have a way of control.
But the cellar door is closed, and no affect will it have.
The key is inside a Loch ness mouth.
Obviously the human is not in touch with the reality.
Else it would thoroughly understand that knowledge is key, and knowledge is not real.
Metaphysical objects fly through the upper door, and close the cellar door in their wake.
So to control the masses by way of mass murder of mass brains is a sure downfall to the epitome of broken dreams.
They will come back, through the cellar door, and take you.

If only I were the center of me.
So I fell short; an approximate six feet from heaven.
And her eyes, like an idea to the most troubled student.
Fight fire with fire; souls light up eyes.
And it shot through me like water, leaving my heart over-saturated and frail.
But her legs were set to talk, and so her mouth fit to fasten.
And the heart of her made me want to freeze.
And when you run out of bait?
And from then on I didn't feel it anymore, the entangled staircase from my head to my soul.
--Various quotes by me.

Little pawns under the big mans hand
Let me play, cries little boy
Sending the to war for no reason but leisure
Handling them with sheer disrespect
The candycane shaded toy soldiers
One gets up and he shouts and he cries
For the rest of the toy souldiers he's not ready to die
But the little boy squints and picks up his hand
He bites of the toy soldiers head
The men in the toy soldier army
Don't have a choice
Because they're movable
And fully operatable
They're dead.

You have the scissors in your hand.
And why you don't do it is beyond me
Just cut the rope, my lady bland
And make it clear that you don't want me
It's hung too long, it's come too strong
It's strangled to many people honey, come on now
The rope is dangerous and shouldn't be there
I would cut it myself but I'm too scared
You're the judge and you're the jury
I can tell by the sweat and faces that I'm guilty
So just cut
The
Rope
I don't believe that you know what power you have, the power of the knife and the power to stab.
We both know of your history as an escaped prison convict, jail for seven years for killing and parting.
So love me please
And kill me today

There's a white seed
Planted in this tall black weed
I've been sown up for so long
A black man born and a white man wronged
Is it true that I'm supposed to grow?
I feed my eyes with what the white plants sow.
It's who I am beneath these layers of bark
A clear white rose with a pure white heart
This thought the black man
Before he killed himself.

Meanie for the way I walk, walk is what the druids do, do is what my mom said don't, don't is what I spit in my shoe. Shoe walks inside of my laugh, laugh is gone thanks to the draft, draft is something come to pass, pass is all I say to tasks. Tasks is found when people die, die is how my mind shall lie, lie is how many things to buy, buy is how the priest found pie. Pie is something for us to shed, shed is light that found us dead, dead is our condition under lead, lead is how our leaders lead, fear is how our teachers teach.

We're friends, oh no
Carry me Carolina on back of your shoulders
Cream and sugar will follow me all the days of my life
With the smell of rusted stones
And falling livers

And drowned out heart
The drums still beat with intense cradled charisma
Feet pile up on the highway sending millions to their deaths.

It's not like I've smote you on site
I've simply shaded the path with a slight hue of night.

You're lucrative ego has been boosted
Even though it's not like we need you

You're here for them and they will die.

Song for the Forgotten:
My tongue is down
Love the words that I mean
Stuck in my wooden house
Underneath a stream
House underneath a stream
Throwing away luck and gambling dreams
Wait for the the crane
To come and pick you up
Wait for it to gather steam
Steam from the clouds
But the sun shines no more
We're covered in darkness
It shines no more
You forgot
About little wooden house
Floating underneath
I'm gullible mouse
Thought I was protected
But the cracks became infected
Accident or not
My foundation's going to rot
I'm ready to die
