Sentiment I

Hey there people! Well, I decided to use one a pretty old poem for a video. When I read this poem to some people, they automatically thought it had to do with homeless people. So, I decided to make a video of just that. Its not big deal. It's just a video with words and pictures. haha. Eh, but it satisfies my creative side. So, enjoy!

Sentiment VI

Hey there! About 7 years ago I used to write a lot of poetry and one day I was extremely bored and decided to make a video with one poem; I tittled it Sentiment VI. This is actually from a collection of poems I wrote titled Sentiments. I never finished the entire collection because at that the time I was very depressed. I was so depressed and unhappy that I eventually gave up on writing all together because its was too painful.  Anyway, so, this is the video! Let me know what you think! I was thinking of going back to some of my poem and doing videos of them. I'll see whats up, though. Not promising anything, yet! haha Enjoy!

The Neon Wilderness By Nelson Algren

Soooooo....My friend M____ introduced me to this awesome book of short stories by Nelson Algren. This is how it happened: I went to the coffee shop one day, and my friend M___ was there. I began to share with him an idea I had for a new poem that I had been working on in my  mind. I told him it had something to do with neon lights. His response to that was "Oh, I know a book that might help. It's called The Neon Wilderness by Nelson Algren." I said  "COOL! I'll definitely check it out!" So, I go home and look it up. What did I find? Well, that it had nothing to do with the poem I had started writing in my mind, but it still sounded very interesting. So, what did I do? I left it alone. DUMB MOVE!
Then, about a week ago I decided to start reading it, and my reaction was this: WOW! Nelson Algren sucked me in to his world. It's a very dark world, which I LOVE.
Why? Nelson Algren's short stories are filled with complete truth; he tells it just like it is. He doesn't glamorize any aspects of drug addiction, alcoholism, crime, and life. PERIOD! Of course, lets not forget the humor found in these short stories. It's great! Trust me on this when I say that you will not regret picking up a copy! And if you're too lazy to go to a bookstore/library and get one, here is a link to most of the short stories:

It' definitely worth checking it out!

Here are two versions of the cover that I found:

No one notices me.

Hello people! I just finished writing a little something that I am not too embarrassed to share. (Haha). I wrote it a few minutes ago. I'm not sure if it is any good or bad. I figured I should share it and have you guys be the judges. So, enjoy..i hope you enjoy. If not, maybe next time. haha
Here it goes:

I cannot believe this has happened again:

I have been minimized into an insignificant being.

If you would have asked me a year ago, “Is this possible?”

I would have said “No”.

Yet here I am hiding behind a dumpster: feculent and with no name.   

And no one notices me.

No one hears my stomping walk, my desperate heart.

No one sees my weeping eyes, nor my diffident walk.

My voice has been stolen,

My mind has been reduced to that of a cretin.

And no one notices me.

I am now forced into impotence.

I am forced to feel the caress of hell,

Which, I’m sure, after a while

Feels understanding and gentle.

But for now it singes my body,

And drowns my soul in endless blackness.

I screech for notice,

I prance around in desperation,

I hurl myself at the world as I ask for help.

But in their eyes I am a beggar.

An insignificant human being,

Not worth of notice.

THE END. hope you all have a lovely day. :) 

What I do...

When I have too much time in my hands. haha   Welcome to My weirdness ...
