-feeling lazy
Will Jan 2018
It's a blessing being lazy
cause sometimes it can make you go ******* crazy;
My world is spinning all about me
I don't care enough, no matter how ******.
It'll always be that way, anyway, so why bother making time to rhyme
Thinking it's ******* sublime
Man, what am I doing with myself anyway?

-Life or Death Choice
Will Jan 2018
It seems we’re the only people lett in this world,
Everyone else left their life to unfurl.
They walk around no better than zombies,
caught up in the so-called “real world”.
They can’t even go diving with their *******
deep in some broad named Millie
from late high school;
But that was when rockabilly was actually a thing.
Now, us young people have a choice,
we can be the same or use our voice,
to speak up when nobody else will,
to rejoice
in the opportunities we have now.

Will you die like the rest?

-Tidal Waves
Will Jan 2018
The revolution will be televised,
people flooding the streets, the skies.
All who oppose will be demised,
critisized,
antagonized.
Those who carry on will be prized.
And so the cycle continues, generation after generation.
It’s hard to tell what mutation will come to fruition,
but the fact of the matter is that it’ll be just as superficial as the last.
Nobody wants to be different, do they?
Criticism is welcome.

-Some Hope for the Week
Will Jan 2018
Every time I look into this site,
it’s like a piece of my soul stares back.
Right now it’s all just so black.
But seeing that, it gives me hope
that someday I’ll learn to cope
or maybe, just break free altogether
and fall lighter than a feather.
But for now, I stay here
trying to become the next Shakespeare.
I doubt if I’ll make it
but i know the trip will be worth it.

-Hypocritical for Kindness
Will Jan 2018
When someone does something to you,
leaves you hanging onto an emotional ledge,
some can’t help but say adieu,
forgo their old friendly pledge.
And when they come crawling out,
Call on you for help,
tell me, is it a crime to keep them falling
if they refused your whelp?
And you can go call me an *******,
cause, honestly, you’re right.
But when you’re not in control
Don’t come crying when they fly like a kite.
Criticism is welcome.

-All Alone, Together
Will Jan 2018
You don’t know me.
I don’t know you.
We’ll never know eachother.
But at least we can take solace in sharing thoughts and feelings
Through text on a digital screen,
Swapping stories, ideas, emotions.
You don’t know me.
I don’t know you.
And that’s the way I like it.
I’m alone, here together with you.
A sentiment between a writer and their reader.

-Let’s Go
Will Jan 2018
Come now, let’s go
If not today then tommorow
Lest we say here in solemn sorrow.

Come on, then, let’s go.
Forget the churches, forget the schools
We live and love according to our own rule.

If it means the death of us,
then we’ll go out without a fuss.
Because to live solitarily
In comparison to tyranny
Is worth every cent of currency.
Holy ****, it feels good to be young.
Criticism is welcome.

-Mind of a 14 Year Old
Will Jan 2018
It’s rolled up sleeves.
It’s cut up knees.
It’s worrying to those who don’t understand it,
but, then again it’s not giving a ****.
It’s a spark of hope
almost lost in a sea of dread.
It’s not something many understand,
and in earnest a bit thickheaded.
It’s the feeling of being young, of getting caught up in fleeting games of love and lust before settling down for a drink or two.
It’s rebellion, really.
Criticism is welcome.

-Small Town Trees
Will Jan 2018
Acres of precariously cut trees line the pavement, made exactly to order, created for dollars and thin-headed minds. They aren’t how they’re mean’t to be now, are they? They’re dead, and serve no purpose other than boosting property value.
Then there’s the trees in the park; they’re alright. A bit more real, for sure, but not the same. Still the masters of dictation by designers with no appreciation for nature’s flow. Most are almost a carbon copy of the stereotype; circle or triangular shaped heads, with a smooth round tail connecting to the surface.
When you come to a small town, don’t expect those types of things. Don’t look for the thin lines, smooth bark, and neatly trimmed leaves. They have no emotion, describe no feeling.
What does?
Trees, made more as thick sticks than anything. Trees bare of all their leaves, minus the stubborn few who resist the tides of winter. Their flesh is mangled and *****, a testament to nature itself. The smell, the sight, it all captures a distinct feeling you will never get from the ******* in Central Park.
Bit longer than the usual, but felt like it warrented a bit more to say.
Criticism is welcome.

-Anything More?
Will Dec 2017
My family, they used to sit me down
and tell me stories of those who rebelled back then.
And I ain’t no communist, not any furry,
but it’s been a while since I was ten.
The stories have stopped,
swapped for stricter rules of what i should opt for.
My father used to be a musician,
and it was his childhood dream.
But he retired from it once he turned what must have been fifty-five years.
He forgot the gleam,
the shine of hope.
And maybe it’s just naiveté,
but I believe there’s more to life
than just unpaid debt.

-Things I've Learned So Far
Will Dec 2017
Inspiration is strange.
It will happen anywhere,
be it the john,
out shopping,
in class,
or among friends.
And it's a real ***** too,
because once the seed is planted
it will do nothing but grow;
you cannot think, move, focus on anything else but the idea.
But,
that idea is a part of you,
and without it you will die.
Criticism is welcome.

-Hollow Words, Hollow Men
Will Dec 2017
-Hollow Words, Hollow Men
They say people like us
are lazy,
convoluted,
dilusioned,
*******,
useless,
invaluable,
that­ we will not go anywhere.
But, what deftly matters
is you
and i
and us
and maybe nobody at all.
And yet, the words that appear,
they flock to our ears
like so many geese
on a hot summer's day
or a array of battleships preparing
for an artillery barrage
on our inner inhibitions
and yet they still mean nothing;
not to anyone
nobody but themselves
because
if you look deep inside
truly
all that matters is in the self.

— The End —
