The restraints of school can feel like jail, there’s a mundanity to it. I must plan my week’s every minute, like God must have arranged atoms. It’s the art of the small things, where some minutes seem shorter than others like atoms making different things School is vibrant, intellectually stimulating and stuffed, like a turkey, with a catalogue of specific ideas that are new to me. So I study them until, like an actor, I can recite them as if on stage. But if a quiz is going to be ‘open notes,’ then it’s going to be an exacting ***** And then there’s the waiting for outcomes (grades) But I’m one of those girls who sings shower songs so bring it on. . . A song for this: Teddy Jam by guy

restraints
On the floor of my bedroom, Lying deathly still, Is a pink sloth I won one day, In the claw game at an arcade. Now, it lies on the floor; Years have gone by, Dust clings to its fur. Evidence of time. Still as fluffy as ever, Pink hairs have grown to clutter. In the back of my mind, I remember the joy from that time. Looking at it now, There's little excitement to be found. Even though it's my favorite color, There's little allure. The pink sloth remains on the floor, And with it the memories from before, Every time I give it a glance, I'll recall that childish happiness.

The Pink Sloth
If               You                            Do                                  Not                                  Believe                                 In                       God           Ergo Jesus Than WHY Do You Participate Celebrate Religious Holidays Christmas And Easter? Ulterior Motives? To Get Gifts.      Free Stuff My poem resembles The Question Mark ? I called this Word Art While some people have indicated it can be distracting. I like the challenge of completing the picture. Inspired song 1) Tell Me Why The Backstreet Boys 1999

Dichotomy
I want to retreat from the reality I created. Hide in an old, faded memory. Out of all the worn, stuffed animals that surround me my truest friends are the ones that can found me.

Stuffing knocked out
The feeling of a full stomach is a curious one, despite the protruding bulge and the dull ache It is impossible to feel dissatisfied Despite the regret for that one to many slices Despite the wish that you had gone for a run instead of acquiescence to the temptation of the glowing screen Despite the knowledge that you’ll soon be buying new pants Despite any and all obstacles in your way You persevere You are the Dictator The ruler of your stomach The ruler of your life Until your sister comes in the room and starts yelling about depleting her potato chip stash

Buuuurp! Oh, Excuse me!
Tacos, pulled pork and quesadillas Garish and gaudy being the clarion call for the food truck battalion An armoury of captivating aromas Savoury propaganda mastered. The war is won.

Little orange octopus that's staring at me, your fluffiness looks comforting but I wish you'd tell me what you see.

Orange Octopus
Oh the fun we will have Now that you're lying here Paralyzed by my tea  You have nothing to fear. Please, give me your wrist. Now thats a good boy, I'll tie you up nice and tight So that you I'll enjoy. Don't cry tears my dear I promise you I won't leave, Just need to get the duct tape I don't want to hear you scream. Oh dear this simply won't do I need to take off your clothes Now don't you squiggle too much Or I might just bite off your nose My darling you needn't be shy! Your body's a beautiful thing, I promise my hand will be kind to you Since you were so kind to me. Darling your pose is perfect! Now is most definitely the time. For what you most likely wonder, To stuff you and make you mine.

The Landlady- comment if you've read it
Stuffed on chicken wire, no rooster in the yard. I’m practicing magic while the lawnmower rides. Funny that, said her valentine. They hadn’t yet learned there’s so much to know, her body opening like a rose.

Stuffed on chicken wire
You've been stuffed with all this pain, that is seeking to escape. Yet you've kept it all concealed, in order to save others from the heartache.

The Sad Realization
The back door.  Green eyes and smelly fur!  The werewolf comes for our kid.   Its time!  White Knight teddy armed with a wooden sword and Judy the red Raccoon and her magical red powers!  Its time to vanquish this nightmare before it even starts!  The werewolf tears down the back door and howls in the darkness.  All we can see is the bright green eyes shining in the blackness.  And there awaits White Knight Teddy and Judy the Red Raccoon!  W.K.T lands a flurry of blows with his awesome unbreakable wooden sword as the werewolf cries in pain!  Judy the Red then emits waves of magical red beams that knock the werewolf out the back door as it screams in fear and scampers back into the woods! And so W.K.T And Judy the red Raccoon triumph over the would be nightmare that was trying to haunt their kid.  NOT TONIGHT!!!

White Knight Teddy And Judy the Red Raccoon ( Stuffed Animal Guardians )
Your fur is matted Your not as big as I thought Your tags are marred by my name In a effort to make you mine You hold so many memories The good The bad The sad The happy Your plastic eyes While scratched Will always see me Clearly I must confess The only reason All the others Were named same as you Is because none of them Would be better than you As a child You seemed so big in my arms Something to hold To hug I'm sorry about that time I was Convinced that I was A hair stylist And found some Form Of cutting tool There's a connection between us Even if you are a Stuffed animal A horse You'll always be In a place in my Heart

Rosey
Sunlight beaming through the windows I did not expect what I’d found. Brown faded boxes scattered to and fro little did i know what I’d find right below. In one box, as normal as the others, I found a friend from years long past. My teddy bear...unwashed, its ears weirdly bent, its eyes on its last. Then, the memory hits me. Back to a sunny day, a time when I needed not worry of complicated things. A day just spent with this bear by my side. Frolicking the fields and getting my shoes ***** from all the mud. Oh how I yearn to live in a time long gone, when it was all still simple and when it was all still sweet.

A Time Long Gone
Tell me a story Cuddlekins! Rawr. Rawr. Grr. Rawr. Rawr. Grr grr RAWR!! Wow! That's a good story. Now let me tell you one. A story of a boy who was so afraid of being alone he put himself in the most amazing adventures. Imagine a beautiful forest in the middle of nowhere. Untouched. Unmutilated with. Un-everything. This boy, John, flew here and laid his case down and pulled out his violin. His music went. Dah. Dah. Lalalala. Doooo. Soft. Sweet. Charming with a twist of a faint memory on the tip of your tongue wanting to be known to the world. As he played on and on for hours the animals gathered around and fell to sleep. John inspired by his surroundings played more and more until there was a rustle in the distance. John didn't hear it but again and again the rustle of the leaves grew ever closer still. There was one animal who wasn't sitting at the clearing in the forest. It was the jaguar. He awoke and wondered where everybody went. They were no where to be found As he searched for his friends a scent caught in his nose. It smelled of food but an unfamiliar one. The long lost forgotten food that his ancestors once described. He chased it slowly turning every corner hiding behind branches, bushes, and bark. Finally he found his prey. He creeped slowly and attacked. All the animals could say was that 'ol jagy was at it again just a hungry beast. Not sophisticated or classy enough to understand music. You know Cuddlekins, I think it was on that day the rest of the animals discovered 'ol Jagy was deaf.
