My favorite movie of all time...
Holy crap that's a hard one.
Twilight easily...
:):):)
I'm hungry.
Where The Wild Things Are.
The most amazing, beautiful, innocent movie ever created.
Wow.
It is so quiet and perfect.
There were some buildings... There were these really tall buildings, and
they could walk. Then there were some vampires. And one of the vampires
bit the tallest building, and his fangs broke off. Then all his other
teeth fell out. Then he started crying. And then, all the other vampires
said, "Why are you crying? Weren't those just your baby teeth?" And he
said, "No. Those were my grown-up teeth." And the vampires knew he
couldn't be a vampire anymore, so they left him. The end.
Will you keep out all the sadness?
I have a sadness shield that keeps out all the sadness, and it's big enough for all of us
I can show you your kingdom. This is all yours. You're the owner of
this world. Everything you see is yours. Oh, except that hole over
there, that's Ira's. The tree's yours, but the hole is Ira's. But
everything else is yours. Except for that rock over there, that's not
yours. That little rock next to the big rock. But everything else in the
kingdom... except for that stick. That little stick right there, that's
not yours. I want you to be king forever.
Happiness isn't always the best way to be happy.

We are learning to make fire.
Welcome to writing class Fire Class 101
Does your fire look like this?
The bad news is some of you will not take all the steps. And your little flame will go out forever, and you will never grow. I'm sorry but it's true
Now, Luckily there are some of you who are tedious enough to endure and pray and fast through all of these fail safe ways to become a good
Pretty soon your itty bitty flame will become like Nelson's:
Take your newspaper, like this, crumple it up real nice, like this, can you see?
You're going to end up with a little ball of words and letters and semicolons, but ignore these because they aren't important, as long as you have the words and letters and semicolons you'll be fine.
Oh! I forgot!
You will need a nice sized fire pit, one that is dug out a little bit with a shovel and surrounded by rocks to stop your fire from spreading to much, especially you kids who are super indie... You don't want others to have your fire do you??? NO way! keep your ideas inside until they are big enough to show to the whole world.
make a circle or a square with the rocks but I'll warn you squares are NOT creative.
Next you'll need kindling.
movies, poems, poets, paper, lamp, Bon Iver music and Sufjan Stevens of course, not to mention a classroom and desks and backpacks
Next we have small sized sticks.
A silly English teacher will do. Rough him up take small bits of him and put them on top of your words and letters and movies and poets and music. Pencils and pens will also do, but the English teacher is necessary.
can you see a potential fire yet?
Next you'll need some hefty logs to keep burning for eons and decades.
Ideas, glasses, HANDS, a brain, inspirational quotes, Jealousy, Rage, Depression, Parents, School, just your basic emotions. Great you've got some hefty logs.
And lastly. Propellant of some kind. This will be the hardest one... You'll need some nice pixie dust, motivation, inspiration, gold powder, marijuana, cocaine, you get the idea.
Oh and I forgot, you'll need a match.
And that seems to be the hardest part.
I believe in you

I want.
http://allpoetry.com/poem/8494113-anyone_lived_in_a_pretty_how_town-by-E._E._Cummings
I wish I would've come up with this.
Gosh.
it is so good.
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?"
I wish I would've come up with this.
Gosh.

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.

Words.
I think a lot of people have forgotten that there is still beauty out there to be discovered.
Even me sometimes.

i don't really know why i wrote all those different languages...
my bones told me to.
i am not capitalizing because,
my bones told me to.
we could just use that excuse for anything.
i killed a man,
because my bones told me to.
Sometimes though, my bones are scared too. And we both look at the floor and listen to music when we walk down the hallways.
My bones and I, we're like a portrait and it's frame. Neither really work without each other but they exist all the same. My bones and I, we get along sometimes, but sometimes I have to break my bones to stop me from looking up or speaking my mind. My bones and I dance sometimes. We swing each other round and round, till one of us drops.
And we all fall down.
Sometimes my bones and I, we talk to that girl.
My bones like to draw pictures but I won't let them, so they don't turn out good.
Crackle Crackle they go, trying, trying desperately to make me phenomenally uncomfortable in my own skin.
They are good at it by now.
Sometimes I do what my bones tell me to,
But sometimes I don't give them calcium on purpose.

Only not.
I go back to a time
in between dreams
dark and cold and light and warm
the soft pitterpatter of summernight rain
keeping rhythm to our
minds racing.
in between dreams
dark and cold and light and warm
the soft pitterpatter of summernight rain
keeping rhythm to our
minds racing.
Knocking at my door
Lying in bed.
Under my sheets, even though they make me cold.
Blanket up to my nose, my hands grasp the top of the blanket'
White knuckles clenched.
It's getting darker and darker
And the barbed wire is getting tighter and tighter.
My feet are frozen, and probably blue.
but I'm too scared to look at them,
because they are so far away,
at the end of my bed, dangling off my mattress.
The draft whispers at my mouth and nose and ears
and ruffles my hair.
Barbed wire tight and cutting.
It's just me and death,
and he looks me in the eye,
well I don't know because of the hood,
but I pretend.
Because it feels like razor wire now.
Tight and cutting.
Blood.
it must be time, I think.
"I'm scared."
Death says
"Me too."
"Why are you scared?"
"Because anything you are scared of, will always be just as scared as you are."
Razor wire, wrapped around my neck.
tight and cutting.
It's even darker than before now.
which up until this very second of my life thought was impossible.
It's colder now too.
and my feet are so far away, and
The door is further than my feet.
Which I also thought was impossible.
I know I can't leave,
because my legs are like a slow computer
jerky and slow.
It's foggy in my room, and it's funny,
because I don't remember buying the fog machine.
Death gets closer to my bed.
Death is the only thing that seems in perspective.
Death smells like roses.
which I find strange,
because it's death we're talking about here.
Under my sheets, even though they make me cold.
Blanket up to my nose, my hands grasp the top of the blanket'
White knuckles clenched.
It's getting darker and darker
And the barbed wire is getting tighter and tighter.

But then again,
a rose will still smell like a rose,
long after it has wilted.
