The perfect time awaits
I'm on the edge of my seat,
the balls of my feet,
ready to take it as it comes.
But wait -
Have I already missed it?
How do I know that this is it?
I've waited so long, I don't know
what I'm looking for anymore.
You can spend your whole life
waiting for that one perfect moment
to come and drop itself into your lap,
or you can take one of the ordinary moments
of your life and make it something special,
something extraordinary,
perfect.
There's a time for waiting.
There's a time for doing.
What time is it now?

ha-HA!
I'm in the middle of having what is probably the most fun I've ever had researching a project for my class. I'm also working on some new writing, so this weekend's been a lot of fun. Plus, the Steelers and Seahawks both won their games, so my Superbowl picks came through! Anyways, this research I'm doing has to do with figuring out how to use video games in Social Studies Education. YESS!!! ha-HA! And yes, I did get to pick the topic myself. So I've been playing a lot of Rise of Nations, Civ III, Command & Conquer: Generals, and AoE II these past few days. Man, I haven't played this much in forever! It's just like 1st year! I love it!
anyways, new stuff coming soon; maybe I'll treat you to more Photoshop creations as well.

As per your requests...
Poem for Grace:
A bastion of truth
in a shrinking universe of lies
not afraid to tell it like it is
a not-so-subtle blessing in disguise
strong of will and mind
yet human to the core
one of a few of a kind
of which the world needs more.
******************************
Poem for the Outlaw:
[in Pitt's voice]
Angelic in grace and beauty,
even your remembrance strikes and moves me.
Your words, when they escape from your mouth
entangle and enshroud me.
Though I may be far from your arms
with only dreams to think of,
when duty binds me and keeps me,
I am set free by your love.
now make me a sandwich!
Have A Bad Day

Things to Note:
1) This blog is where I vent
2) My writing is what keeps me from taking a shotgun and cleaning house.
3) If you know/knew me in the "real world" (aka: outside of this blog), don't be surprised to see what you see here. I can only listen to so much crap without having to open the spill-gates to ease the pressure.
4) Sometimes, when you think "maybe it's me", it's not. But then again, sometimes it is.
5) Evaluate your sources.
6) Nice guys don't always finish last. Sometimes they don't even make it to the starting line.
7) In what language does "I'm busy, can't talk right now" mean "I really want to have a 3 hour conversation about nothing"?
8) Yes, I expect things from people. Get over it. I figure it's only fair, since I tend to become their listening post.
9) I have priorities. You may not be one of them. Deal with it.
10) Just because I'm single, doesn't mean I'm desperate. Quit hounding me.
11) If you have a question, ASK THE DAMN THING!!! Don't assume!!
12) It's not that hard to figure out if I find you interesting.
13) If you don't know, bloody well admit it! Don't pretend you do, cuz you just come off as an ass!
14) Keep It Simple, Stupid.

blindsided
"I am the reason they look over
their shoulders. I am the reason
they don't sleep at night. I am the
sword of Damocles, hanging over
their head from the lightest of threads.
I am the cause of the Gordian Knot in
the pit of their stomach. I am the thing
under their bed, the monster in the
closet, that which goes bump in the night.
I am Fear incarnate.
I am the reason they call in sick,
but show up anyway. I am the cause
of tapping fingers,
darting eyes,
nervous laughter,
bouncing knees.
But you'd never guess it if you saw me,
which you never will.
And that's the point."

Janus
I am a citizen of Canada.
I will put the social good before my own,
unless that right infringes upon someone
else's right to put themselves before society.
Then I'll take my case before the Supreme Court,
where the judge will agree with me,
and rule against me,
because it's okay in this society for those
in power to step on my individual rights
in order to do what's good for Society.
F- it, I just wanna leave.

maybe... just maybe....
This is onefractured vortex
of my mind,
fragments of heaven
shining through red
madness and strife.
They've tried to
bring me back
into the light,
but my life
is better alone,
living in
my shadow zone.
