To you, to my grandfather.


I know we are all feeling a little bit sad,
That we've lost our Grandpa, our friend and our dad
Together we have cried an ocean of tears
As we feel so empty and hold many fears

I write this for you, Granddad, as the tears roll down my face,
A part of me just died tonight a part I can't replace.
They called us to your bedside it was time for you to fly,
How do you fit a lifetime into a five minute goodbye?

Death may have taken your body but it did not take you
The love that we share even death can’t get through.

You have left so many happy thoughts in my heart,
I am still finding it hard to believe we are now apart,
If I were given one wish what would it be,
It would be for you to be here for one more day with your family,
I am heart broken that you are no longer here,
When I think of you, I will always shed a tear,
People tell me in time the pain will stop,
But I will always miss the times I had with my dearest Pop.

Ordinary World

Expect the unexpected if the unexpected is expected. 
Meet Jasper the Lonely Man. He is an 22-year old with few allergic reactions. He always feels like he is being tied down. He is not good at what he does but marriage doesn't come easy. He wakes up every morning at the same time, he brushes his hair the same way, he never forgets to feed the horses. Lately his shoes haven't been as slip resistant as once before. His life is now slipping, he can no longer accomplish the grocery list. He begins not wearing shoes. His life has never changed so dramatically. He realizes that the shoeless life brings back to many memories of his fifth grade dance recital. He decides to wear shoes again. He slips on his old shoes, but something feels different, something feels better. His life feels back in place. He realizes it wasn't because of his shoes loosing their slip resistance. He just needed to find comfort in his life. He just needed Dr. Scholls.

Shake the Dust

This for people that are separating their family's, this if for the people that are living on the streets, this is for the people that have no hope of a family tree. 
Life Goes On
This is for the people that cant commit, this for the kids that never owned a baseball mitt. This is for the people that cant admit. 
Life Goes On
This is for the people that dont matter what they've been through, this is for the people that dont matter what their into. This is for the people that sit back and wish that they could redo. 
Life Goes On
This is for the people that still stand, this is for the people that are not afraid of saying I am. This is for the people that are always under command. 
Life Goes On
This is for the people that were born without a dime, this for the people that are still trying to climb, this is for the people that are not scared to speak their mind.
Life Goes On
This is for the people that grin and bear it, this is for the people that win and share it, this is for the people that didn't plan it but give it to God so he can handle it. 
Life Goes On so grab this world by its clothespins and shake it out again and again and jump on top and take it for a spin and when you hop off shake it again for this is yours.

Gandhi

I keep forgetting to, 
not only do whats best for you
You are some one else
I am still right here
Tighten up your reigns
Take my badge but my heart remains
Dont push me out 
Lately I'v walked in doubt 
Maybe its crashing down
Can you save it now
Days go by days
All we do is roll on
Days show my ways
Dont stop keep going on
I'm your shoulder lean upon 
Discreetly 
When will we own ourselves completely
Demand a better voice 
No, nothing but rejoice
Take toll, take time
And turn your face
Dismount your wall
Disband your state
In the battle of bones
I'll be up and coming on
I'll be up and holding strong
You treat me black and white
But tonight is not the last night I'll see the light
This is just a rewrite

Zealous

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.
You’re on your own.
And you know what you know.
You are the guy who’ll decide where to go.
- Theodor Seuss Geisel
I wouldn't say Theodor is any where close to my favorite poets, neither would I say this is my favorite poem. Why does this make me zealous? I like Geisel and I have always enjoyed the books he has written mostly when I was a child. I feel like he expresses so much in so little, not just his poetry have meaning but his children books also makes you stop and think for a little. The book Yertle the Turtle is expressed by a turtle (Yertle) is the king of the pond, but he wants more. He demands that other turtles stack themselves up so he can sit on top of them to survey the land. Mack, the turtle at the bottom, is exhausted. He asks Yertle for a rest; Yertle ignores him and demands more turtles for a better view. Yertle is about to call for more turtles suddenly the turtle at the bottom, (Mack) burps. This movement topples the whole stack, sending Yertle flying into mud, and frees the rest of the turtles from their stacking duty. This is actually is a representation of WW II, Yertle represents Hitler. Even though Yertle the Turtle does not have anything really to do with poetry, it does show that Theodor is very good at killing to birds with one stone, he writes a children's book with rhyming words and bright colors, but then he also hides a very important message that is not really directed at children.
Is Theodor Geisel my favorite poet? No, but I like his writing because their is more to it then you actually think, and he knows how to tell something or get across a point with out the reader really know what is given.

Complaints

I'm tired of kids teasing dogs through fences. I'm tired of dead batteries. I'm tired of imaginary people. I'm tired of not being able to say what I want to say without using metaphors. I'm tired of putting on my socks wrong and getting blisters. I'm tired of not having a strong enough immune system. I'm tired of my lack of allergic reactions. I'm tired of walking through hallways. I'm tired of my younger sisters acting like they are my mother. I'm tired of my eyes being tired. I'm tired of people saying how cool, or hardcore they are because they went to jail, you got caught Idiot. I'm tired of my body telling me "its time to sneeze" Then it goes away. I'm tired of when I dont forward a chain letter, and I die the next day. I am tired of people acting like your friend because you pulled out a pack of gum. I'm tired of people poking the plastic on meat in grocery stores. I'm tired of people standing up because they think they are the true Slim Shady. I'm tired of rappers always talking about robbing banks in their songs, thats why I download all of them for free, payback. I'm tired of crossword puzzles because they always remind me of bickering with my mother, one word leads to another. I'm tired of feeling like every answer should be answered with GOOGLE THAT. I'm tired of being a true gentleman, I always open automatic doors for everyone behind me. I'm tired of fake tans, Willy Wonka wants you to get back to work. I'm tired of laughing so hard my face falls off. I'm tired of people fearing rejection, craving attention, desire affections, and dreaming of perfection.

Adam and Eve

Love is real, real is love, 
Love is feeling, feeling love,
Love is wanting to be loved.
Love is touch, touch is love,
Love is reaching, reaching love,
Love is asking to be loved.
Love is you,
You and me,
Love is knowing,
We can be.
Love is free, free is love,
Love is living, living love,
Love is needing to be loved.

Thanks John

Eye Of The Tiger

Forgetting to breath. I'm in then I'm out. Toss after turn. Scream after silence. When I am here it is quiet. Imaginary things start to come. Memories of before, thoughts of now. Forgetting of the now. Seeing is believing, if I could. When it is real nothing compares to it. A dream.
Its happening its lonely. I'm singled out by myself. The loudest things are my thoughts. All I can think is where am I. Its black, its deep. I am in the eye of the hurricane. I am in the eye of the tiger.

Direct Orders

You have been given direct orders to rock out

Rock out like you just made your first Facebook account then rock out because you deleted it. Like a virgin, touched for the very first time. Like you finally just ran over the neighbors cat thats been eating out of your garbage can. Like John's back. Rock out like you saw a picture of yourself on a milk carton. Like you're finally tall enough for the rides at disneyland. Like you're the bee's knees in the cats pajamas. Like you got everything to show, but nothing to prove. Like you just open your first happy meal. Rock out like you just drank a 1/2 cup of evaporated milk. Like you are the student of the week. Like you Gene Simmons. Like you can vote but you know your only 17. Like North Korea is one of United States alliances. Rock out like you created a new word for the dictionary. Like you can grow a beard and leave it for at least a month. Like you are someones mentor. Like you overcame the fear of failure. Rock out like someone fed you peeled, seedless grapes. Like you looked into your child's eyes, see yourself, and smile. Like you reflect on your greatest weakness, and realize how it is your greatest strength. Like you just went horseback riding. Like you just planted your own tree. Like you joined a social etiquette class and further refine your mannerisms.

    Strangers, Followers, Welcome, I don't know who you are and you don't know who I am. I am however in a Creative writing class, I am not a good writer, but I am trying to be a creative one, I guess that is what I am suppose to say, is that to cliche? Anyways I have never done a blog before, I guess I am just doing it for class, but I am going to take advantage of it and actually hopefully learn something. Maybe Both of us can enjoy this.
