Yeah, ive taken a break from poetry(and armor games) and would like to continue my love for both. ( i hope that makes sense.)

I guess what i would like to seeeeee......
Maybe Concrete Poems? I've never seen anyone on AG try a concrete poem. Maybe you'de haave to take a pic of it, or somthing but that would definatly be unique!

Thank you for the suggestion faunbard! I would like to try that....

Hmm. I think I might have something (eventually)

Maybe you could.... Do one on....

The wonders of claustraphobia?
(protip: Claustraphobia rhymes with Afraid of small spaces. Nawt.)

I'd like to see some stuffs.

Armor Games is pwn,
Grammar, to me,
is unknown.
Because
pwn,
isn't a word.
Like a penguin,
A flightless bird.
This poem,
makes no sense.
So lettuce let the insanity,
commence.
Simple rhymes,
and simple thought,
I might as well
use alot.

Well. This is the latest thing I've written, although it was merely for humour. I'm thinking about keeping some sort of journal type thing here while I'm in Ireland. It probably wouldn't make sense to you guys... Maybe I'll just take pictahs. People like pictures, right?

Irish Ireland!

The following pictures are from my band trip to Ireland. Sorry if it's bad quality, but they were taken on my phone. It's about 30 something pictures, and I hope they all load in one post :<




This one was taken in St. Patrick's Cathedral



This is the roof of the Cathedral, I just thought it looked really cool :3



Marsh's Library was the first public library ( or so I was told ). But feel free to google the stuffs.



I believe this is still St. Patty's.



Architecturally satisfying.



St. Patty is almost done with, don't worry.



No idea where I took this, but it's preeeetyyyyy.



Really bad quality, but I had to zoom in on my phone because it was so far away. It's under some construction and such, so that was as close as we could get. :<



Blarney's Castle! Google the history and that, if you really want to know about it. :P



This is the view from on top of the Castle.



A better view from on top of the Castle.



This is Blarney, my crow friend I made at the top.



At this point, I don't even know why I left Ireland. T,T



IT'S JUST SO DANG PRETTY OUT THERE.



I think I'll try to buy a house there, one day. Because I will return to Ireland.



I WANNA GO BAAAAAACK



Monastic Ireland Statue thingie



This area is where you'll find the only Irish Gaelic speaking population.



Bad quality D: But as you can see, very rough living conditions and such.



THE HILLS ARE ALIIIIIIIVE



This is my friend, Sheepy the Sheep!



Really bad quality, but it's a lovely little town. The name is too confusing for you to type and pronounce, sorry.



We rode this path in a tour bus. A HUGE TOUR BUS.



I think I'm in love with this land.



That's it. I'm walking to Ireland now.



Somehow, I will find a way to walk on water.



YOU GUYS SHOULD ALL GO TO IRELAND.

Sorry if any picture was too big or too small, I suck at making picture posts. :<

Anyways. Yeah! I was in Ireland for a week and a half, and I marched in a parade in Killarney, Ireland! It as very fun, and I enjoyed most of this trip.

And so it ends, Irish Ireland.

I believe this is still St. Patty's.

You still have not made Dango tree! I will not rest until I get my dango tree and critique you on every intimate detail of it!

Well keep drawing if you truly have nothing better to do! You have a skill, exercise it! Don't just sit there all by yourself doing nothing, or you'll regret it later!

So. I totally had a poem written. But due to my lack of knowledge in the layout of a MacBook, it's gone. T-T It isn't like it matters, though :<

Well. Yeah. I've been gone. I'm somewhat backish. But I probably won't be for long. *shrug* Sorru.

As I stare down the barrel to his bayonet knife,
I can't help but wonder if I will really lose my life.
Fighting for a freedom that seemed so sweet,
But reality hit me hard, and it made me knees weak.

I realized that we could never win this war;
England's army is our size, times forty-four...

We have farmers with pitchforks
And boys with no aim.
They have men who have missions,
And their whole lives to train.

I look at the redcoat with a smile on my face,
I point my gun up, and he meets his fate.

My body runs cold now, and my tears hit the ground,
I hope to be remembered, and I hope our freedom is found.

I know this isn't really EXACTLY Independence Day, but this is like a part one thing.

Part two?

_____

I hear the rumble of a far-away boom,
Probably fireworks, I aptly assume.

People don't even care about the true meaning,
They just want to throw parties with barbecue eatings.

I don't care about the parties and fun,
I would rather remember the damage that was done.

My ancestors fought for this country's Independence,
We went from colonies to a country; an astonishing transcendence.

We parted from the ignorant England,
Bid adieu to Europe's control.

And because we fought for our rights,
On this wonderful night,
We became the nation; free, and whole.

They are combined into one, but please understand the massive gap in time between the two.

That dango tree was for Frankie. :P

Looks like I'll have to put in some effort to this thing. We'll see how that goes...

Mainly, I am posting this to rant. Ranting usually helps me with my creative flow.

I'm gonna be selfish, and talk about me. This is *my* thread, anyways. .-.

I'm busy. I'm sad I don't have much time to come back here more often. I literally wake up, clean stuff, and go to work. Lately that has changed into waking up, going to work and hopping online then sleeping the day away. I believe I have made one of my many transitions, which is where I simply move on from my old fads and hobbies. Things bore me, and I lose interest, and I forget about them. Sadly this is has happened to AG and pretty much all of the people in it. Just imagine the mood of this post now as being that yellow dango.

Let's focus on the end of the school year. Around the start of May. By this time, I already knew I was going to fail two classes, and I would have to go to summer school. I didn't care, really. I though summer school should be offered as a full out school year thing for kids who work better online, but whatevs. And after school ended and my whole "OHLOOKIFAILEDAREN'TYOUSOPROUDOFTHEDAUGHTERYOUHATE" thing, I had Rookie Camp for band, and I had to go because I got Brass Captain. It was a win-lose situation. ANYWAYS. In summer school (middle of June, after Rookie Camp) I had to retake English and History, and I did it using Nova Net, which is designed for idiots. I finished english in 3 days and then history in 3 days, so summer school was a breeze. Then I went on a cross-country trip with my family, and that took up the end of June. It is now July and I'm wondering where my summer went, because it's the middle of July and I seriously have no recollection of what happened in the school year. My mind has been put on this cycle of work-sleep-work and that's just all I do. I haven't written any new poetry in like a year, with the exception of that piece for the poetry contest, and it was astonishing I could write AT ALL. Now I'm doodling again and you see the failures created, lol.

Well. Yeah. That's just a run down of my summer and why I haven't been here. But I'm getting money, and money will help me do things I want to do in life. IT'S SO SAD THAT I WORK IN FAST FOOD YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

BLAH. Life. Y U NO GIVE ME BREAK???

We shall see what school provides me; maybe a lovely break or maybe another friggin curveball. I'm really only waiting for school to come around considering it holds the key to my social life. *sigh*

TL;DR : Life has been sucking the life out of me, but I might stay alive until school.

Maybe a I can pull a poem out of my rear end now! Wouldn't that be fantastic?

Someone? Anyone?

Aw. Well I do plan on posting something later today. *sigh*

Lonelyyyyyyyyy.
