Acoustic Love


We had to do an excercise in creative writing today, here are the parameters,

Write a thirty line poem made of one lone gramatically sound sentence, medium length lines about 10 syllables.

So here is what I cam up with, not to bad.


Acoustic guitars play in the foreground of my mind whilst im dressing for the day to come a day undone a day not yet begun; like so many other days this day is filled with potential hope and dreams that have yet to come to fruition some type of inhibition of my mind is causing me to stop this poem, maybe it’s the fact that it is completely wrong. Ha I humor myself, I hate these damned excersices they force the contents from every corridor of my mind. Will there be none left for me just to have. Must my soul spill out onto this paper once more??? Yes it must, because indeed this is what I have chosen, hoping and still praying that it is what God has chosen for me.

Acoustic guitars play in the foreground of my mind
The lullaby of wood and strings interwine
As they capivate me and pull with a sweet disonance
Resolve will you not, oh chord in my dream
Or will you leave me hanging over the clef
Trying to find my tonal center
And I fail once again at this excerise because this sentence is not gramatically sound, try again…

Blogging Beginnings....


So this is my first blog ever thanks to Le and Maya who peer pressured me into logging, no excuse me, Blogging every thought, motion, and crevice of who I am. For starters I woke up this morning....jk guys.. But on a serious note I had my first creative writing class today so throughout the semester I will blog my works, this is the fuckery I came up with today, its terrible so brace yourself....

So here are the parameters:
Write a ten line poem using a commonly known proverb,
Alter and proverb and fit 5 of these random words in it,

Sounds peachy doesnt it?

Original "Never look a gift horse in the mouth"
Alteration : Never look a sold horse in the eye



Random ass words:
cloud
needle
lick
blackberry
voice
mother
whir
cliff


Never look a sold horse in the eye
I did once and it nearly broke my heart
The sound of his voice stirred more in me than you'd ever know
I was completely taken aback, lost in thought, vision clouded
I was approaching the cliff of sorrow
Filled with mother's voices trying to soothe the sobs of their nightmare stricken children
Nightmares as horrid as licking the point of a thousand needles...

So as you can see I didnt finish I ran outta time and it became extremely morbid... so idk
