Icarus     Their wings are made of wood,
         and feathers,
              and wax.  

    It would hold
         As long as
              They stayed in balance

    As long as
         They did not fly too high
              Or too low

    As long as
  
AloneAt the bar
She waits.
Contemplates wistfully
The last remains of her wine.
She sighs,
And pulls another cigarette
From its refuge.

Catches the landlord
With her fluttering fiver,
Orders another drink.
Listens with her feelings
To a saccharine song -
And stares at nothing....
Careless    The evening wore on and my pantyhose was beginning to feel too scratchy for the room I was in.  The stars were barely there outside in the chaotic light of a city throbbing with shivering inspiration.  I pressed my glass to my lips, the name of the drink escapes me.  It tastes like mangoes spiked with water lilies.. odd but soothing in a way that's easy to forget about as we get older.  The right amount of oiled dancing helped me slide into relief.  Relief from feeling too too white, relief from a pride that became as dull as avoiding the daily telemarketers.  
Poetry DumpBreathe a Moment
Take a moment
To breathe
We aren't dead yet
So take a moment
And breathe
They haven't killed us yet

Puppet
I can't save them all
And it kills my soul
So play on my heartstrings
Make me dance around
Like the puppet I know I am
I can't save them all
But I can damn well try

Rain Pains
The rain is colored
Dyed purple from his hair
Tainted red from her arms
Stained blue from his eyes
It leeches the color from them
The rain is colored by pain

Rushing
Rush
Onto a white train that holds promises
Promises of freedom and happiness
Rush
Into the drowning lies that keep us alive
Lies that save us now, but kill
My Lovely Hellfire - 1My lovely Hellfire,

Happy belated Fourth of July to you!

I had about as much fun with them as possible. Jazz, Crescendo, and Tempo had fun lighting off fireworks. Even Alto came outside to watch them with us. Galatian came to visit with Angel and Deuteronomy (shit, that's a long name to spell. Messed it up four times) so we had a pretty big cook out. Not as big as when everyone was still here, but still pretty fun.

I remember that year…Blaine was so beautiful tied there. There was always something about that dark crimson in his golden hair that I loved. That's probably why I kept him around for so long. The way purpling bruises looked
Parallel ConstructionSentences and lists are awkward when they contain a series of items with inconsistent grammatical structure. But as your reader scans through a series of items with parallel grammatical structure, the relationships between different items of information become clear. Here's an example:

Which of the two sentences below is easier to follow?

At the February meeting we will hold a discussion of the new health plan, whether to revise the procedures manual, and then a draft will be developed of the early retirement policy.

Vivid.The dreams are more vivid now.

They are different, but they are in many ways the same. They possess the same elements: Fear. Worthlessness. Desperation. Grief. Guilt. (And each emotion each feeling crushes him down more until sometimes he feels like he can't get out of bed.)

Ivan works himself hard. He has cut down on his intake of crappy food, though he still clings to energy drinks, continuing the smoker's hand-to-mouth habit. He usually has something in his mouth, gum or a candy or some snack (or Christian's tongue, which he likes). Sometimes it's his nails (biting and biting and he hates it), sometimes it's a can of Monster or a coffee.

The idea was to create a poster for a typography exhibition at the V&A in any of these styles:
Art Nouveau
Art Deco
Dada
Punk

I chose to base mine on the paintings of Alfons Mucha.
