I once knew a girl who looked up at the sky I asked everyone but no one knew why So I asked her "Why is your gaze in the air?" She paused for a moment, then answered with care. "I feel the answer's up there in the stars. Beyond busy streets clogged up with cars." "Not astrology or myths. But our identity. She left to gaze more, Her eyes bright and free.

Eyes on the Sky

I once knew a girl who looked up at the sky I asked everyone but no one knew why So I asked her "Why is your gaze in the air?" She paused for a moment, then answered with care. "I feel the answer's up there in the stars. Beyond busy streets clogged up with cars." "Not astrology or myths. But our identity. She left to gaze more, Her eyes bright and free.

O eraser, o eraser, You were supposed to make it white Instead you made it gray O eraser, o eraser, You smudge my work all day! O eraser, o eraser, I'm throwing you away! You're hard and black with pencil dust-- O eraser! O eraser! Away!

Opposite-of-Ode to an Eraser

O eraser, o eraser, You were supposed to make it white Instead you made it gray O eraser, o eraser, You smudge my work all day! O eraser, o eraser, I'm throwing you away! You're hard and black with pencil dust-- O eraser! O eraser! Away!

This is my mono-monologue. I stand alone befoe the world, My lonely clean white flag unfurled, Wondering when the winter sky Will melt my wings and let my fly. Perched upon a mountaintop With not a soul in sight "When will my isolation stop?" I cry with all my might. This is my mono-monologue. The wind whispers What I hoped I'd never know: "You are so far away from them Because you are below. "But maybe you are The one who lives above. Maybe that is why You never could be loved." This is my mono-monologue. I've lived a shunned life (It can be hard to see) Although I haven't felt much strife, My freedom's far from free. I do not truly know What you mean by 'best friend'. I'm fated to live alone Until the very end. This is my mono-monologue.

Mono-monologue

This is my mono-monologue. I stand alone befoe the world, My lonely clean white flag unfurled, Wondering when the winter sky Will melt my wings and let my fly.

What do we learn in school? How to Shut up, Listen up, Keep our heads down, Keep our feet on the ground. How to make stuff up How to hurry up How to not be loud How to walk with the crowd We learn a lot in school.

This is a revolution, For we are only human! We must rebel, For can't you tell, This is a revolution? To be free We must be Revolutionary! We will fight day or night, We will march for the right, String me up on a cross, No spirit is lost! If I am gone Then we are wronged My spirit will live--on! We will not rest 'till all is past We'll fight until the very last This is our creation-- For this is a revolution! And maybe this will never end, And I will never be your friend, But we must try! For This is a revolution!

REVOLUTION-ary

This is a revolution, For we are only human! We must rebel, For can't you tell, This is a revolution? To be free We must be Revolutionary! We will fight day or night, We will march for the right, String me up on a cross, No spirit is lost! If I am gone Then we are wronged My spirit will live--on! We will not rest 'till all is past We'll fight until the very last This is our creation-- For this is a revolution! And maybe this will never end, And I will never be your friend, But we must try!

I will speak for you If you ask me to. If we try, There's no dark inside. But to gain the view That you want, anew, You must lay All your fears aside. All the worlds you're through, All the lies so true, All that's left Is the great divide.

I will speak for you If you ask me to. If we try, There's no dark inside. But to gain the view That you want, anew, You must lay All your fears aside. All the worlds you're through, All the lies so true, All that's left Is the great divide.

Do you ever lie in darkness, Wondering if you will be The star of some great epoch In books of history? Do you ever fear you'll fail, And let everyone down That expected you to be someone, Instead of to be drowned? There are so many expectations For you to change the world To deny is to refuse Your duty.

Duty

Do you ever lie in darkness, Wondering if you will be The star of some great epoch In books of history? Do you ever fear you'll fail, And let everyone down That expected you to be someone, Instead of to be drowned? There are so many expectations For you to change the world To deny is to refuse Your duty.
