give up

it may be time to quit some time...
when the odds against you are stacked...
when the road before you is littered with obstacles,
when there is no end in sight and you want to give up...
you should...

if happiness were all it is worth,
i would gladly give mine to her,
if loneliness were all it is worth,
i would take it all from her,
if pain were all it is worth,
i would feel hers so she wouldn't have to,
if love were all it is worth,
i would love her even when she didn't love me...

before and after

in a day life all changed...i asked for a muse
life gave me regret...i begged for solitude,
life tossed me to the wolves, why does the fog
not wither away as does the dust of aged flesh...?
cry your worries, woe your wants, cut the vessel
of juice that lives beneath the surface...

i asked her to open up and let me in...
in reality i convinced her to be with him...
i laughed i joked, she smiled and she looked,
why couldn't i realize then that my goose was cooked?

wishy...washy, vivid and null...life of four is two of one...

understand not of concept and virtue, think of trite and florence...

believe not see what do you, life of moment is death of hour

temperance of mind begets spirit of soul...think not do of what see you,

says she not, destroy your yes, remember your everything replaces...

silliness...

silly boy...dont skate so fast, when you fall
and break your leg, you will be sorry...
silly boy, eating dirt is bad for you...
perhaps you should stick to burning ants...
silly boy, she doesnt push you out of love,
but out of detest...

Legalizing and Decriminalizing certain drugs.

There is talk of legalization of Marijuana in California, I recently had a school assignment on this topic I thought I might share.

My thoughts on the legalization and decriminalization of certain drugs.

It is obvious if we take a look at both sides of the argument that there is a level of dissension amongst our ranks. If we take a step back and look at legal drugs like alcohol and tobacco, both of which kill thousands of people each year, the case for certain drugs becomes a simple case of "well if Marlboro can kill people and make money, why can't people smoke pot, laugh, and go to sleep?"
