Meet n Greet

Seattle, WA
I guess this is the area for the meet n greet. Hello and welcome, Friends, Family and Strangers. We’ll see how this whole blogging thing goes, as of now there are no real outlines for it--I'm thinking I'll take a Freudian approach and let my subconscious do the writing. I guess I'm here 'cause, well, I just like to write. I also like to take pictures, doodle, sketch, write long lists and share the strange things I find on the interweb. Some applaud my humble exploration, while others... well don't. I'm a little disheveled in my abstractions and narrations, but I can be interesting sometimes, too. I don't really care, but now that you have entered my world, you are now a part of the judging jury. This is an outlet for my musings. Nonlinear and no editing. Enjoy.

YOU WIN YEATS

*********

My mind, made a yarn rug last fall.
Compromised of mostly afterthoughts.
Old colors combined, made new.
From the window, to the wall;
my naked floor was warm
with your embroideries.
But fools rub their muddy sneakers on you,
as if you, were theirs to ruin.
Oh rug, Let them stomp and soil you.
Beauty is not virgin thread,
But in the scrubbing hands.

*********

Kinda like A Coat by Yeats, except there's 11 lines, not ten, and it doesnt rhyme and doesnt have Iambic pentameter. Meh, that's why I'm not famous for poetry, or famous at all, for that matter.



and yes line 4 is supposed to be rapped...
Procrastination for a Poetry midterm is rough.

Ps. This was a joke.
