In the core of the earthen lake. In tadpole water they sit or stand on souls, where they finger a burnt lover waning. We may never learn but pray with pity: who can know his pain, or can understand the desolation? Now, now Don’t shed tear, for broken heart can condemn you wholly. Selflessly boughten, […]

What Men Can Do
It is cold down on the asphalt. The chalk figure sketched with disobedience, while men with golden shining shields circle silently. Shocked at the idea of what men can do. Her love bracelet still clung to her wrist, possibly a trifling concluding comfort. The sounds of terror and pain should have filled the air, But […]
Absentee Father or Raised by Wolves
Did you ever see that movie “The Devil’s Advocate”? You know that movie with Al Pacino? Well I have. And in it good-old-uncle-Al delivers a beautiful line. A line that resonates with me to my core. He says, about God, that he is an “ABSENTEE LAND LORD!” And I get it. You might say with […]
Late Night Obsessive Thinking Titled: Me Too
Lets just get one thing straight: The idea that The Big Bang is the beginning of all existence, that there was nothing but nothing before it, is just as ludicrous as a Christian white haired re-creation of Zeus saying “Let there be light!” and then there was. I cannot prove that existence exists, but I […]
Politics as I see it
If it is understood that “writers write” and “teachers teach,” then it can be safely assumed that “politicians politician,” which is the ability to seek or hold state or government political office. In the definition of the title there is no assurance that politicians are responsible for the whole of the Commonwealth. So don’t get […]
The Soldiers Project
I feel that this is one of the most important projects geared towards helping the American military. In this day and age most of the population knows someone who has been affected by the multiple military actions occurring around the world. And some might know the trials that they go through overseas, but many lose […]
Thought Process
I make decisions based on social or political philosophy aided by facts and probability. You make decisions based on religion or personal emotion stemmed from personal experience. Religions are a personal choice and bias that is flawed because their principles are written down and unchangeable, which makes them a self-created barrier that traps you for […]
What I have been doing
Sorry I haven’t made a new post in a while, but I have not been taking time off. I am writing freelance for Yahoo and Textbroker in order to build a portfolio and maybe even make some money. Ya gotta eat right? I have updated my “Contact” section to include my Yahoo profile and Facebook […]
The Continued Occupation
I posted a new work in the “Essays” section. It is a further discussion about the Occupy Wall Street movement that is currently going on. I feel like this is a powerful movement that finally makes sense to the population of our country and I hope we have the resolve to see it through. We […]
New Poem
I put up a new poem entitled “WARm bed.” I wrote this when I was in high school. I had just had a rough night and was sitting at lunch looking at everyone having a good time, pondering how much trouble I would get in for ripping the smile off someone’s face. Instead of living […]
