One of my favorite poems. Enjoy.
Forgotten Memories
Thinking of you, wherever you are,
We pray for our sorrows to end,
and hope that our hearts will blend.
Now I will step forward to realize this wish.
And who knows:
starting a new journey may not be so hard
or maybe it has already begun.
There are many worlds,
but they share the same sky-
one sky, one destiny.
Till then, Later Days

Radio Waves ( A Weird Post)
Is it just me or does it feel like American society is moving more towards an entertainment future? I may just be naïve to the groundbreaking discoveries made everyday in my nation, but I gotta say that I don’t see a lot of people moving us forward. While rappers, singers, actors, and actresses create (and I use the term loosely) where are the people who are finding cures for diseases or uncovering secrets about the human body to advance us forward? My friends and associates in college show no interest in careers that move the human race ahead, they just want a job to pay for their various expenses.
When I was in 6th or 7th grade, I became interested in gene-splicing when my art teacher told me about how her friend was studying the field. While I admit I did have a less than elementary understanding of the topic, it still floats around in my head from time to time. Just imagine it, if we could splice human DNA with animal DNA…and no, I will not make a nod to the creation of werewolves, vampires, and other such creatures, but I always thought that would be really cool. We would be improving some things about the human body, but probably also affecting some changes for the worst.
Just last year, I also started doing a little bit of reading on biotechnology (ok, I read on Wikipedia) because my school studies entered the realm of human physiology. I thought about what a human could do if they tweaked there caloric energy consumption in their hypothalamus from…I guess, 85% down to 7%. All that extra energy would be crazy! But I stopped let my mind wonder and just let it fade to black.
Viruses are mutating, the climate is permanently changing, and I hate to say that even I now have no interest in learning how to combat these growing changes in life. When everything is done and out of hand, we as a society will just have to learn to deal with whatever comes, and that’s a scary thought because you never know what’s coming for ya.

Forever And Then Some
I believe this is the earliest I've ever written a post.
Too bad I dont have anything original in my head, so I'll just leave something pre-ordered..
From my creative writing class, last semester...
_________________________________________
Single
Jill, Sydney, Liz, Nikki, does it matter?
My kiss changes all cold beds into a hot mess
I tell them not to fear this room full of shade
All wonderful things happen here
A hot mess to a ladder
Until the climax
Then we’re done
She doesn’t feel anything
Except the rush
So I go home
Alone
And it’s Chanel, Lisah, Iesha, and Kim too
Original sin
In that red abyss dress
When her lustful wink catches
My body’s squandered
A mere vessel containing echoes
Voices of lost midnights and too many drinks
They don’t know how many times
Looking for just one
I lost count

Home
In case I don't get around to it, I might as well say it now before it's too late.
From May 29th until like August 10th, I wont be making any posts.
I'm taking a short sabbatical to do some things like:
I may write short entries in my book and then move them over to this format, but probably not.
Forget me not, for absence makes the heart grow fonder for what is gone...
Unless you don't like me already, then you can do whatever you feel like.

I'm taking a short sabbatical to do some things like:
- get my shit together
- exercise (more than I already do)
- prepare for school in VA next semester
- meet new people
- hate new people
- listen to no music
- attempt to find my place in the world
I may write short entries in my book and then move them over to this format, but probably not.

Smooch
I had this funny thought earlier today.
Kisses are funny things.
You go in not knowing what to expect...some people kiss sloppy, others slow, fast, whatever.
Then there's lip size differences (and my God has blessed me with some big ole smuckers),
intensity, tongue involvement, just a whole bunch of factors.
I'm not too technical when I get to kissin, but it's just a funny afterthought of it.
You kiss someone and it means something.
It doesnt have to, but most of the time it does.
You kiss this person and everything has to line up in your brain;
It has to line up, because no one searches for a bad kiss.
You want those pair of lips to make you come alive.
You're giving it your all, so why dont they righ'?
One becomes many and then soon enough, you're making out,
yet with that act, you must want to do it again...and again... and, (you guessed it!) again.
When you lay one on another person, isn't it just a tease of a possible future?
Probably doesnt make sense, but I did say It was a funny thought.
You're still persecuting me aren't you?

2 Miles
I reside in a world of "what the hells" and "I got nothing to lose",
so if my decisions seem apathetic,
it's not new news.
For once, I dont know what to say or what to write.
Growing old is getting old and I just wanna get outta here.
Get the 2 months away over with.
I'm fading in the dark regarding Baltimore, Maryland.
I expect to be back, but not more than a week at a time.
Everything I want is everywhere else.
And by the way,
it's Friday, go get drunk.
