when i'm angry
i can feel the veins
in my neck pulsate.
my blood gets
boiling hot
and thats when
those horrible words
come spilling out.
like a pot boiling
over on the stove.
i hate being that angry.
i'm sorry.

Sometimes at night,
when i find your
heavy arm on my waste
and your snoring and
dreaming, i push
that arm off of me.
sometimes i stare off
into the darkness and
think why should i have
to be stuck in one spot!
thats right you've got me
right where you want me
directly underneath your
wing, in your sight,
at your grasp, whenever
you want me there.
sometimes when your heavy
arm isn't around me and
i'm looking for your warmth
in the cold darkness, you
are never in arms reach.
so i remain cold and alone.

My Favorite part of the excersice was Question 5: Make up a famous quote about X then freewrite on it. My abstract object that i persomifird is RAIN. So here it is:

-The rain in spain falls mainly on the plain.-
This quote originated in spain where Rain breifly lived as a college student. Rain lived on the plains of spain where she usually fell because she was such a drunken party girl in those days. She usually fell getting out of taxi's and trying to walk to her apartment. Her neighbors in the plains would usually make fun of her and take pictures. In the morning, when she was sober she would find these pictures and such in her mailbox and at her doorstep. So when she became famous, her secret leaked out...

This is the piece we did in class where we mixed the different lines from the 2 different texts:

Work Must Be Done

A sword maker could not make knives nor could a pin maker make thimbles.
Everyone had a craft of their own.

Sweaters, teak tables with brass inlay,
men and women worked to the natural rhythym of the day.
They worked from the blueblck morning until suppertime.

Wicks were made for the memorials by craftsmen.
Europe had finally recovered from the devastation
and they no longer wanted to fall behind because of it.

Candles and silk stockings, full in a box.
The belief in trade was still strong since
they were still able to produce profitable items.

But they earned it, they earned it all.
Blood, sweat and tears
all and any profit were hard earned.

Figure out this setting:

Dark, damp,
surrounded by white entities
that serrate, grind and grate.

Hollywood Deceives

Hollywood deceives.
They fill audiences with hope of unreal love.
We wish for a love as great as those beautiful actresses and actors.
Sometimes, we put or faces on those faces, the faces of the actors.
We fill their shoes.
We feel their happiness.
When we return to reality, its back to a love totally different.
Perhaps a love that isn't really a love at all.
We sit in silence and idolize that love
in our misery.
Hollywood decieves.

Valentines Day

A sadistic joke
created by fools in love
to remind people who aren't
that they aren't in love
nor do they have love.
So keep your damn cards
chocolates and flowers.
We don't want ANY!

Untitled

They lied to me,
They told me there are no
boogymen, monsters and such.

Of course they don't have long scary claws
and creepy yellow eyes that glow.
They are
hideous, horrible, humans.

They are the monsters.
Tormenting souls
and maiming others.

They told me that monsters
don't come out from underneath
the bed or out the closet when
the lights go out,
but they could.

They look like me and you.
They blend like chameleons
in a jungle of green.

They lied to me.
They told me that I
shouldn't be afraid,
But they also told me
better safe than sorry.

SUMMERTIME

Burgers grilling.

The warm air carries the smell

over to you

splashing and wading poolside.

Bright sun baking skin.

Birds chirp.

You smile

and sip your iced tea.

Two months?

Only if this could last

forever.

I had a thought today in class.... since i think my dreams are sometimes interesting could I use those as short stories? how could I make them interesting enough to share?? heres a sample of one of my dreams I had the other day... I want to make it into a cool story...leave some suggestions please.

My Dream
my cousins, siblings and i were at my grandmother's house. my younger sister had a snake. the snake told me he wanted to bite me. he had already bitten everyone else. my cousin was holding the snake and he bit her too. she let him go and he went hiding under the sofa. so we all went to hide. i told everyone there was no purpose to hide since they had all got bitten and he was after me. i hid in the closet. everyone else was sitting really still. we heard my grandparents come in and i yelled for my grandfather. he came in and i was telling him everything that was going on in spanish, which is weird because i really don't speak it that well. the snake comes slithering in past everyone and under the dresser. it comes back out and climbs on my grandfather. he stays completely still. so then it slides down onto the floor. i told my grandfather in spanish to step on it. he didit died and the police took the dead snake away.

practicing....
