in 2010..really??





the worst part is is that im not shocked about them racially profiling and trying to find any possible way to deport Mexicans..oh i meant "illegal immagrants", im just shocked that they are doing it so blatantly. seriously passing a law for this and justifying it by calling it a "dangerous and unacceptable" situation??what's dangerous is that the state has the right to do this.like is this even legal?oh not to mention the governor of virginia just named april confederate history month. bump it, im running for governor.

12 50am

words fail in times like these.
times when you listen to a song over and over again because its the only one that makes you cry.
times when you want to cry because you want to know that part of yourself better,that part which you rarely show because you feel weak if you expose it to others and they're around way too often.
and your not alone often enough.
the silence is deafening,you cant ignore your own thoughts.
& you dont want to
like standing in the first row right in front of the speakers.
you cant ignore them.
but its more than sound.
its a feeling
and your a emotion seeker
as long as their not your own.
but they are,their just coming out of their mouth.
their guitar
the bass
& your head nod means more to you than they'll ever know.

decisions, decisions

my priorities are all messed up,yet its the only way i feel in tact
i would much rather go out..nothing special i know.
i would rather paint for hours
i would rather think alone from when the sun comes up until it sets,
then wonder how i spent a whole day inside my mind
but not in silence, i talk to myself
i should write a book, it would be repetitive
i could be putting so much more effort into these deeds people tell me to do because they see them as important, but regardless, i get by
and my mind, body, and soul thrive...when im doing anything,besides those task
"life is not a rehearsal, you gotta live now"
but should i be considerate of the rest of the cast?

cherry blossoms

at 10pm

..

in one of those moods again.
like everything around me is overrated.
lately people have been calling me an artist,
they call me a photographer, ask if im a painter, assume i write poetry and ask do i make my own clothing..
they, however never label me as the most innovative of them all, human
today i told someone i don't claim to be anything..their response with a smile "not even human"
my reaction..."*thinking face..no only human."
see when you claim to be human you claim to be anything you want, and when you embrace this nothing is impossible. when you claim to be human you claim to be a creator,therefore saying "i am an artist."
and i dont mean you have to dance,draw , or even play the kazoo
i just mean as human we all initially have different perspectives,and ways of looking at things. this in itself is innovation. and when these thoughts are put into action, it becomes creation, which in turn becomes art.
so when one is brave enough to embrace their human spirit, and own ideas,whatever they may be, they automatically can be deemed as an artist.

so forgive me if i don't seem impressed by any"artsy"thing i do
because if someone were to ask me "when did you become an artist?"
my first response would be "when did you stop?"

j*davey-outta the window


i like that its 12am, because i usually have a hardy helping of j*davey in the morning.

its just my thought process..

i came to this place to be uncomfortable. to grow, and learn more than i thought i could discover in a familiar place. but the more places i go the more i learn that everywhere is too similar. and if not now it will be in a few weeks. i want to get lost. and i do, but with people who i feel like i've known all my life,with people who i've known all my life, with people who i've known all semester, with people i met an hour ago..and i love them just the same. stuff gets familiar way too fast. and its crazy how wherever we go we seem to create the same patterns, revert back to old habits.is there no escaping it?
teach me something new..
