I wish I would've come up with this.
Gosh.
me Cheating off e.e.cummings |
I wish I was more original. And I wish I didn't have to try so hard to be creative. I wish I didn't have to listen to sad music, smoke pipes and say 'quite'.
I wish I didn't have to squeeze my heart
and not just the blood, no
pulp and all, onto a new page every single time.
i wish i wasnt scared so much of bad grammar and spelling errors
and capitalization.
I wish I didn't have to feel the obligation to make sense and shoot myself with a nerf gun.
"Make me creative God"
what my prayers consist of.
"God, make me a better writer than I was yesterday."
"God, should I write you a letter God?"
all by all and deep by deep
and more by more they dream their sleep
noone and anyone earth by april
with by spirit and if by yes.

I wish that I could write a stanza like this, and not need to feel like explaining it.
what the crap is he even saying.
He doesn't even capitalize his own name and initials.
i wish i wasnt selfish
I envy how other writers can compare anything to whatever they are talking about, or write a story about a boy who fishes everyday and only eats bread and make it turn into a lecture about why love is the only thing that is both constant and chaotic at the same time.
I wish I could control Chaos like they can.
....There once was a boy, and he fished and only ate bread.
This is really good. I love the part that talks about asking God to make you creative and a better writer.
ReplyDeleteDude. And some people just posted a poem and said "this is the poem I was jealous of."
ReplyDeleteLoved it.
I really really really loved this. It's probably my favorite Jealousy post. Like Nelson said, people don't elaborate in a creative and captivating way at all. You on the other hand....
