A corded lawn mower is about as convenient as using chalk on a white board.

You can always be the most unique."

Self Recission

The only thing tougher than crying-
is sleeping.
And the only thing keeping me from sleeping-
is the crying.

Every time I ask myself:
"who am I?"
I run from myself,
and hide.

And even though-
I always know,
where I'm hiding-
I don't tell.

That's...



how much I love myself.

My only conviction-
is my lack of conviction.
I believe in myself-
the same way I believe in fiction.

It's fond-imaginative thoughts-
living with deep meaning, like religion.
I'm pecking for reality,
like the crumbs that of a pigeon.

I see clearly-
so irregularly,
the crumbs of reality,
they don't come cheaply to me.

I'm lost like a criminal-
thinking criminal thoughts.
I'd never make a good bad guy-
I too badly want to be caught.

bad is good

As you get older, you will be able to identify the things that have bred your anxieties.

Things will get better,

If you just keep working on the hard stuff.

Dealing with the bad is good.

Life is good and beautiful, when you can work up the grit to understand, or at least have a level of acceptance, of the grim.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.

Poems are

Poems are just poorly performed songs?
Poems are songs without music.
Poems are the silence between sentences!
Poems are your face on fire?
Poems are not your friend.

Your friends are, though.
