Some Poetry
So this semester I’m in my college’s (Northeastern) creative writing class. We started with poetry which is… not exactly ideal but whatever. So we had to write one shorter poem and one longer one. I was not convinced that either poem was any good, but today in class we went over our short poems and I got a response very different from what I’d expected. We went around the class and each read the poem of the person next to us, when it came time for someone to read mine a very pretty girl across the table from me audibly whispered to her friend, “This is the best one,” or something like that (we had all read each others’ poems before class), and also at the end of class someone came up and told me mine had been the best. I was a little taken aback as I had thought it was average at best and I still have problems with it but I guess it might actually be fairly decent. The longer ones we haven’t gotten to yet so I don’t know whether it’s as good, I highly doubt it though, I don’t like it much but it’s something.

I’ve been listening to all the songs
I didn’t write about you
And wishing there were songs
That you didn’t write about me.

Odyssey
Death once came for me
Death sounded like a kick drum
And a choked cymbal
And death looked like an airbag.
Death rolled me
I held tight as the world turned
Upside down, then right side up
And then stopped.
Death burned
The smoke stung my eyes
And choked me
As my dog cried.
But death didn’t get me
Cautiously I explored the feeling
In my limbs and tested their movement
As shock faded the radio played.
My dog thrashed behind me
Her leash caught and tangled
As I released her she bolted
And together from death we ran.
Soooo… yeah. Not much else really. College is fun, most of the time. Might have a short story or something soon, hard to predict really.

I’ve been browsing on-line more than three hours as of late, yet
I by no means discovered any fascinating article like yours.

if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you probably did, the net will likely be a lot more helpful than ever before.

Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with?
I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

There are many solutions to begin finding your true self,

If there is sufficient time, lodge at the sauna, hot tub or steam bath facility through
the day spa. Massage recliner units are wonderful means to deviate
from the sedentary lifestyle.
