GI100 Book #2...random attempts at poetry. |

A second attempt at "Give It 100!" ![]() These are just rough sketches and ideas that are barely a little more rounded-out...they're not perfect but they're gonna be good enough to share here at least. Your comments, support, and words of encouragement will be greatly appreciated! |
6-21-17 It's been said it takes ten-thousand hours of practice to master any hobby or field. If that's true, then how did I manage to quickly pick up the art of mashing piano keys in a grossly melodic manner by the end of first grade? I was no Beethoven or Liberace, but there was no equal among peers. Maybe it was the key-tar's simultaneous emergence, or reverse ageism, holding me back. I coulda been a legend, ma! Instead, here I am...tuning words and making other kinds of notes and wondering all the same. |
6-21-17 ![]() There's an alternate universe where cable news stations are alerting viewers that Jesus Christ is coming, and- you won't wanna miss this- he's a robot. His prep work on us is almost over... he's been reading all the Harlequin classics at the Hopedale Memorial Public Library And Ladies Auxiliary Landfill For The Almost Homeless, and he likes what he sees. Thinks he'll fit in. Maybe get laid, even. Assuming, of course, our lord and lotharial savior isn't deported first. But the real story- the one the news doesn't tell you- is that Robot Jesus is made of Lego brick knock-offs, and running a magnet over his circuit board causes him to question his sexual preference. Meaning: all his book-learnin' is doin' is he could be lovin' you while thinkin' about someone else. And in this alternate universe, that one sin is greater than all the rest combined, but that's not concerning to the loyal news patriots or moral zealots who think they have a chance. |
6-21-17 ![]() You're a picture that needs to be extended in every direction but the one you're facing. Walks aren't there just for taking; are you making plans or merely exercising? Control is useless on small courses with slow speeds and little wherewithal. You're not thinking big enough by jumping off; sometimes you've gotta step on. When everything is instead, nothing is growing. Get loose. Get stretched. Make moves. Start showing. |
