'Bout Me
Life as you know it does not exist . I am only a part of the herd. I run with the pact. I am only one out of a gazillion people that live on this planet. I'm a blue collar worker. Starbucks, that is. I live in Chicago. I don't get out as much (but I try). I'm a walking contradiction. You may think you know me, but you don't. Everyone assumes that I'm this quiet little thing. Believe not what you hear, but what you see. I can be loud if you push me. I joke alot. I have an obsession with killers, murderers. I read alot. I love music, concerts, a good thrill. I'm anxious to know about my future- IF there is one. I am a member of the poet's society (or at least I'd like to think). I paint, I draw. I love all kinds of art. I like the dark side, the light side, and all those in between. I create, I disassemble. I make the mold and break it. I sleep when I should be awake. I run around like a nomad. This is me.
You commented on one of my poems, so I figured I'd come and see what and all you've written. I saw that I have my whole day now dedicated to reading you works! heh. I like this. We had a Star Bucks that recently went in by one of our 5 wal marts. It was really funny cause I went to that Walmart one day and the building was the same old abandoned building that it had always been. Two weeks later I went back and saw the Star bucks being constructed on the inside. The white cover-alled workers were inside painting it. Literally 3 days later I went back and it was opened. Those things go up really fast!
Starbucks! Hummmmm!!!! I met the love of my life at Starbucks! Wells and Adams, at Steve's cafe', for true! I
did not think much about it until I went to read more of your poems; which are great! Take my advice and if you really want to know what is ahead for you in life, take the
time and lie still in your bed and listen to your inner voice that is total peace; then you will have a road map to
a way that is less negative, stressful and restrictive and
learn to take quiet (self) time.... no telephones on music
just you and yourself--all alone. Think this is easy? Try it and see, see you for you and who you really are; hear your heart beating? God has all the power to awaken us one
more day.
