I am 18. I have a strong passion for writing. I plan to go to college this spring for a degree in English for creative writing. I mostly write poetry, but I have been working on alot of stories. They never get to an ending. I also paint and draw quite alot.
My favorite Author is Anne Rice and my favorite poet is e.e.cummings. They both have inspired my writing and have helped me refine my technique to where it is now, however good or bad that may be.
This is one of my favorite poems by e.e.cummings. I’d just like to share it.

a wind has blown the rain away and blown
the sky away and all the leaves away,
and the trees stand.   I think i too have known
autumn too long

          (and what have you to say,
wind wind wind—did yo…

Father Do you miss me When you're Lying in bed Thinking about your Long day Do you wish I was Part of it When you look at my picture (Not recent, but a bad 5th grade photo, with permed hair gone wrong) Do you feel a surge of emotion And think of how I look now Some of you And some of mom Dad Are you proud When you tell people That I'm your daughter And mention my accomplishments (or lack thereof) Do you smile Do you wonder who is loving me Do you want to hit him Make sure Your little girl is ...

I see your skin It's burnt From where? From within? A hopeless battle with yourself was it? You lost, you say? So, who won? The love? Forbidden love. I see.

and it's making want to sleep i'm drowsy fatigued tired of the shit that persists could your yelling be more silent could there be some appreciation for things that I have done for you when I could shrug them off like my younger blood relative I was in the same room as you for maybe 5 minutes before you decided to rip me a new one just because I get frustrated with stupidity can I help that she's helpless can I help that it pisses me off to no end when her mouth goes off when I try to help he...

i'm pretty alone right now my thoughts are wandering far too much for this time of night i should be sleeping maybe dreaming of giant raggedy anne and andy dolls (a horrifying nightmare i'll never forget) the left-over "fish" that i radiated in the microwave of death is gone i gobbled it down after swallowing some pretty satisfying poetry i'm having an ear orgasm from the new cd i purchased today the only solace in a weary world where wannabe music resides this is real talent my lip is throbb...

For some reason this seems very unlike you. Wanting a time machine. I don't see you as the kind of person who would want to go back and change things. Or is it that you would want to go forward and find a time that better suits you? Or neither. It's tough to interpret. I think everyone wishes to be more than a passing thought. We all want to be immortalized in some way or another. The way I read this, you want to be a permanent desire, instead of just a short term infatuation. You're tired of...

I love the emotion in this. I'm not sure what emotion it is exactly. Perhaps you've created a whole new one. You shouldn't have to wait around if it's right. Love isn't meant to be torturous, which is something that I've recently realized. I was done waiting. But I wasn't waiting for anybody. I was waiting for my own feelings to coincide with theirs, which never happened. I got fed up with waiting. Life's too short to waste your time on people who aren't willing to spend time on you. That's m...

I don't know why, but the reality of this pulls me in and I love it. To know that this actually happened, and to see your point of view of your surroundings is fascinating. I loved it."don't i look as anti-social as i feel" I can really relate to this line. Why can't some people just use common sense and notice when someone doesn't want to be bothered? I personally keep to myself no matter where I am, but for some reason perfect strangers find it neccesary to talk to me when I go places. Of c...
Poetry / Spiders Web
Life is all just one big web. How the web looks just before it's blown away by an inevitable wind depends only on how you weave. And how strong the sticky thread is. Some ways may crumble, leaving you helpless to fix it. And others are torn, and are eventually made better and stronger than they were before. I love this poem. The concept is perfection. A perfect way to few life and what is meant when one says you are responsible for how it works out. Thanks so much for sharing this.
Poetry / Ikea'll You
Haha. I like this alot. It is very real and I love the slang going on. Some people are afraid to speak so plainly in poetry, but I love it. It's easy to relate to this poem. I'm sure everyone at atleast one time or another has wanted to just kill the nearest person because if you think about it, prison would be alot easier than alot of the other stuff we have to put up with in our normal, everyday lives. This was fun to read. Great job.
