Strum me like a guitar, I make music in your hands.
Calloused tips tip the scales in the favor of the player,
Make me sing the high notes of praise and inspire the guttural calls of heat.
Drum me daringly, devastingly, daintily, I keep the beat under your hands.
My skin is tightly strectched for your percussionary pleasure.
Bang out of me the response to the deep timpani’s call.
I am a flute under your lips, blowing sweet sounds under your command.
Press my buttons and ply tunes gently from my metal casing.
Lead the band with the pure mucsic you pull from me.

My attempts at poetry
Beverly
You were the Eve that gave birth to me and a new world.
You fed me the fruit of knowledge and taught me to be like You.
Crisp and tart but secretly sweet, a granny smith apple.
You gave me ideals to live for and the stength to be different.
You gave me a love of Cher, baked goods, and Southern Tradition.
And with your death you gave the power to break free of McCrory.
You still remain chained with the roots of the peace lilly I watered with tears
But you are free with me as I travel this Earth.
Rooted in the dark Delta soil you fertilize our Mother as you fertilized me, Mother.
Forever, all I am and do is in your memory.
I will be your living Requiem.
Half a century passed far to fast and another will pass far to slow.
Time turns slowly without Summertime’s lyrics coloring my day.
Without yeast rolls filling my stomach with the warmth of butter and love.
Without midnight grilled cheese and gossip renewing our bond.
Without stories of a badass, pole dancing, Navy coremen mother easing my boredom.
Without life of your own, you will share mine.
I will be your living Requiem.

Ohio: The True Heartland
This mess is just ridiculous. One would think that in an industrialized, civilized society, that illegal sex trafficing would not be around. But here it is in America's "Heartland." Ohio, this is a monumental disruption to and disregard for humanity and human rights. I would expect this mess from third world countries like those in Africa, or Haiti, or the poorer European countries. But here? NO! It is wrong whereever it is but here there is not excuse whatsoever!
Children and tourists are kidnapped and forced into slave labor and into brothels and still you have no human trafficking laws? Here is one....THE 13TH ADMENDMENT! It made all people equal in the eyes of the law and is one of the main reasons human trafficing is not countenanced in the United States. Ohio politicians, get off your asses and quit commissioning reports and DO SOMETHING! This can not go on any longer!
Professor Douche Bag
I have a prof. this semester who has somehow mistaken himself for God and not even a happy God. He is more like the Old Testament God but angrier with PMS and 'roid rage. THis is what I would like to say to him.
Okay sir, I realize that you know more than me and worked very hard for your doctorate. I also know that I am not a retarded monkey scratching my ass. I am an intelligent person as are the other people in our class. I also know that while you deserve respect and have the right to demand it, I also have the right to not be talked down to or degraded. So how about you jump on down of your soap box and teach this class instead of asking vague questions and then getting pissed because no one knows how to answer them. Finally, Huck Finn lived with the freaking Widow Douglas and your angry rant about how I was wrong until someone else politley proved I was right and then you ignore how the whole thing even happened because you are a dick that has short man syndrome is totally not cool!!!!!!! I mean really?!?!?! Your class makes we want to piss broken glass.
But I can't because I need this class. So, I'll just blog it.

If you have ever questioned God, religion, or anything of the sort, I would encourage you to check out this group in Jonesboro.
DISCLAIMER: I don't give a damn about your proselytizing or your angry remarks. SO please leave thos where you left your rationality.
In the past few years I have come to realize that the idea of God or any infinite, heavenly being is irrational. Not just the God of the Abrahamic religions, but any God. I started out disliking the Christian God because apparently I'm going to hell for being gay and for not signing over my life to an invisibly entity that demands subservience. So, I became agnostice, which by my defintion, means that one believes there is a Higher Power, but who or what it is is an unkown quantity. However, I have moved on over to atheism because I just find no rational evidence for any sort of higher being. If a god came down and spoke to me or I had a truly religous experience, I would accept that and become religious. Until that happens I stand behind my position.
If you feel like this in anyway, then you are not alone. *you are not alone by michael jackson* Here in Jonesboro there is the Atheist Community of Jonesboro, which meets weekly to discuss a multitude of topics and to provide an environment and social outlet for atheists, agnostics, open-minded people, free thinkers, etc. The people there are willing to think, which is rare in the world and will listen to anything and then logically debate it, which is again rare to find.
So check out the facebook group and come see us.
