My blog, welcome.
Credit goes to Norbanus for this wonderful poem. Much thanks for the gift.

Nero: The Legend and Fiend


To read the mind of madness, as a rule
Is wrought with pitfalls leading but to grief.
When Nero smiled Rome nodded as one fool,
most jumping in to hide their disbelief

But there were some, who understood his ways,
who didn't blab while planning a new track.
The story of his end goes on days.
His corpus tossed into the trash out back.

The gladius then sheathed, or so they say.
His guards had done the job without a hitch.
His broken dream of art had gone its way.
His "Qualis antifex" now in the ditch.

We read of his great falling from his perch,
did he think that he’d left Rome in a lurch?



Welcome friends!

This insane, wild, and honest blog is home to my thoughts, observations, and daily musings on whatever may arise. Enjoy your stay.

BLOGGER OF THE WEEK
May 3, 2020 - May 9, 2020

You asked.
July 19, 2020 at 6:30pm
I told that I was going to write about boycotting, and my opinions on it, but it turns out I can’t. I don’t have the energy or the drive. There’s been a few prompts over the last week that have really interested me, so I’d get to thinking about what I would write, and how I would word it, but when I got down to it, I just didn’t feel like it. I would compare the feeling to seeing your favorite dessert or clothing item and feeling excited you get to buy it, so you go to the check ... [Read more]
The Bible
July 10, 2020 at 7:43am
Prompt: Do you believe people should stand when God's word is read? Why or why not? This should be an easy prompt...but it’s not. I do not go to church, so I’m unfamiliar with it. I outlined with in my last post. But if we were to take church out of it, then yes I would say I do think people should. The Bible is a tricky subject for me simply because of some of the themes. I do not believe is a man’s job to help show the family the Lord, yet the Bible uses he for tha... [Read more]
Riding the Happy Wave
July 9, 2020 at 3:31pm
Hi guys! Man, it’s been a while since I’ve done an impromptu entry, hasn’t it? Well don’t fret dear friends. I’m back! Today we’re going to be discussing three things: Kat, God, and the why of me blogging. But before we do that, just a note. I’m feeling good. I made a 100 on my biology test this morning, and since I’ve never done that in the class, I’m happy. I usually make 85s and up so this is an awesome feeling. I know it’s not a big deal to any of you, but it’s a succ... [Read more]

July 3, 2020 at 7:04am
DAY 2786 July 3, 2020 “Love doesn’t just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.” ― Ursula K. Le Guin Your thoughts? Well isn’t this an interesting prompt? I must say, I wasn’t exactly expecting it. You want to know my thoughts on love, eh? Well then dear readers why don’t we dive in. For all of you just joining, I am a teenager. That isn’t the say I cannot feel love, it’s just to say I haven’t felt it... [Read more]
