Hit the road jack
And don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road jack and don't you come back no more
O woman O woman don't you treat
Me so mean, your the meanest ol
Woman that I've ever seen,
I guess if you say so
I'mma have to pack my things and go
Hit the road jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road jack and don't you come back no more
Baby listen baby don't you treat
Me this way, I'll be back on my
Feet some day-
Don't care if you do cause its
Understood, you ain't got no money
You just ain't no good, well I guess
If you say so, I'm gonna have to pack my
Things and go

Avatar The Last Airbender: Leaves From The vine
Leaves from the vine Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells Drifting in the foam
Little soldier boy Come marching home
Brave soldier boy Comes marching home
Those leaves did grow From branches overgrown
Drifting slowly down Resting on the loam
Little soldier boy Taken from home
Forced to fight a war That's not his own
Leaves from the vine Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells Drifting in the foam
Little soldier boy says "Carry me home"
Sleeping soldier boy Is carried home

A Different Kind of Reptile
The one-eyed snake comes in many shapes,
But colors very few.
He loves to spit;
But when and where are entirely up to you.
In the night he'll make you shiver.
During the day he'll put you to shame.
Feed him right and he'll always deliver,
And be ready to hunt again.
The one-eyed snake does what he wants unheaded,
He shows up hated and unwanted,
Because whether or not he's needed,
Your pants are stiffly being haunted.
They doing what?
Censor? Censor who?
Me!?
They trying to censor me?
Man, They can kiss my behind.
Who would agree to that?, what person in their right mind?
I see you, yes you.
Don't you dare be afraid of them. They can't do anything to you.
You see, they are you.
Just you in a better suit. That's all.
You see, I speak my mind.
I don't hold my toungue.
I don't give a shit, I'll tell you right from wrong.
Don't even matter that I'm young.
They no longer own me nor my kind,
So if i choose to, Imma speak what's on my mind.
When I look around and see what they've done,
I weep.
I weep because we've lost and they've won.
We've lo
Looking back over my life, I see some of the times when I 've been exposed to censorship.
They are a little fuzzy in my mind; so while looking back, I try to find time to
Try to find and define those moments in my mind.
So I close my eyes to get a better picture.
When I open them I see before me a raging river of thought.
I step into the water. I look to the left and see myself sitting in class.
She, the teacher, had said something that sounded funny.
I raised my hand in an endeavor to inquire about it,
Asking "WHY?", "HOW COME?", "CAN IT BE DONE ANOTHER WAY?".
Simple questions from a child.
"NO!" "BECAUSE I SAID SO!" "YOU KNOW WHY!
I can't seem to describe what I've found at the shore of the pond.
I've seen many things; alot of which I am fond.
Baby guppies play games like "I can get it before you do."
An adolesent turtle barely pokes his head out of the water; Yes I see you too.
I see ducks that are envious of the guppies, so they engage in their own game of tag.
I even saw the little trail of ants stealing the chocolate out of the hole in my bag.
I saw something else that I could not ignore.
The waves rolling softly into the shore, never to roll anymore.
If a man should tell me that you must die,
I would kill him first.
I would give him a place to lay his head;
Then place my blade in a spot to quench its' thirst.
If a king ordered you stoned
He would soon find himself dead in his throne.
If a God saw wrong in your creation;
I would show his passing to every nation.
If a man should be a thorn in your side
I will use my blade to take him on a ride
If a woman should be a thorn in your side;
She'd quickly be made to undertstand that, there is no place that you can hide.
If your friends become a pain in the ass;
Don't worry! They'll be dead long before the next class.
If a world was
What does it mean when you see her,
and your heart skips a beat?
When you can see a thousand reasons
for you to speak, but not a single
reason why you should meet.
What does it mean when you walk around
with your chest in the air?
Why? Everytime you see her you act like
you don't owe the world a care.
What does it mean when you've waited to long,
but, now your talking again, you've got this funny feeling
inside you, maybe its' a song?
What does it mean?
please; no need to take a guess, I'll tell you.
Its' because you love her that you'll look into those eyes,
fall to your knees, and always say yes.
Once in a town not far from here
stood right on the edge me and my dear,
we laughed and we joked all the day long
until she leaned over and said "something is wrong"
I felt her head and said "you don't look well"
she said "yeah and I feel like hell"
once again I said "you don't look well"
"please sit down right here"
she said "okay" and fell off the pier
since then I have never seen my dear
Often called the centipede of steel
It takes one look to convince you I'm real
In years of old known as laugh-giver
Older than your parents, and if lost I'm never found
Fragile when apart but indestructible all together
Don't waste your time trying to define just what I could be
"Snake of silver savors sounds of sniggers
Refined ringing roars resonantly in regard
Wandering worm of welcoming wonder"
Tell you what, just go to bed and rest your head in total misery
You never change, do you?
Always there, waiting for me
Even within the years gone by
You've never forgotten me
In my times of Trouble
You conforted me with soothing words
In my times of Happiness
You smiled and laughed with me
In my times of Sadness
You encouraged and reassured me
.. In my times of Absense
You waited patiently for my return
I'll always rememeber you,
Even when you're long gone and I'm alone
Even when the tears have long dried up
You'll always be here next to me
.. My Old Friend.
The Avatar State:
Just as there are four elements
Existing in harmony with one another
So too are there four states of poetry:
[Air:]
Air is the element of freedom
Exemplified by the use of free verse
It has no structure and no true shape
But allows us creative control
Through the use of air as a poetic medium
We allow our emotions a freedom to be
We allow them to soar upon worded wings
Gliding freely through the skies of literature
[Water:]
Water is the element of the changing flow
It can be hard as ice or as soft as snow.
Its nature resembles the power of rhyme
Which grants us order and a structured mind
By pushing and pul
Trapped at the bottom of a ruthless cage,
Cold steel bites,
Laughing harshly at my incarceration.
The blinding shimmers of gold crack their way up viridian eyes,
Choking out the sense.
Flailing and dying,
I fail to see the end.
The animal has won.
His claws trace lightly on my neck,
Tempting seas of red forth.
Soon there will be nothing left,
But primality.
Drowned away by snarls and growls,
A prisoner in my own mind,
My body forfeit.
A vessel for him to run free.
That line between the animal,
Blurred beyond recognition.
Spun into a bloody maelstrom,
Woven into bloodlust.
Sealed in my complacency
I watch him devour.

The Fairy Tale, A Lifelong Resonance
A thousand years tradition of scaring children at bedtime continues for children of all ages. News of the discovery of 500 “new” fairy tales collected over 150 years ago [link] in Germany and locked away in a forgotten archive has me thinking about the enduring importance of these narrative treasures in the lives of human societies worldwide. My worry, have fairy tales been marginalized by modernism?

Hello fellow deviant, you've found my page.
Allow me to explain a few things about myself so that I never have to write another journal entery again.
I hate writing these. First off my name, The name "Silence" is the name of the main character in a novel that I'm writing,
kinda with a syfy-ish theme you know. The "866" is the number of pages I intend for the first book of the series. Like how eragon
and harry potter books are so thick? that's how I want mine.
Second, the reason I even got into Da in the first place is b/c of a girl. I won't say nothing about that b/c it ain't your business,
while I do have a couple quams about Da, to

I 've learned today. I felt wonderful today after listening to jessie j's newest song "Laserlight".
I do realize how this sounds, but when I heard it for the first time today I watched as I saw her having so much fun. Living....
And I wanted that. That feeling of doing exactly what I want. The knowledge that somewhere in the world a fat black boy with so many issues and no game, is uplifted by my music. To live for that Feeling. Is what I desire. To make beautiful music. I love Her just that much more now. Dear lord i wanna cry for this beautiful feeling resonating within me. I never cease to be amazed at how wonderfully she sings. As I wa
