It’s lunch time, and on the grounds are skipping ropes and psychology textbooks. While children jump and run and scream and smoke. And spit. Skipping class to stand and watch mouths move, turquoise dreams fade away with the dent in mommy’s car. [Cry me a river you pointless child]. Cinnamon hearts and open ankles, these aching days defined by black and white pages of pointless photos dusted with time’s lazy fingerprints. And they never do grow up. /jen/ what if they gave a war, and nobody came... [This message has been edited by quietlydying (10-30-2002 10:00 PM).] |

Flocks of green and white, the white of purity grow together and scatter in wild screams. Her heels are too long There's a smudge in her white (double breasted shirt)- her skirt's too short. Ettiquette ladies, Hush. Attention is to stand and not draw or breathe or laugh The flocks are effortlessly flawed. Minds numbed with closed doors and unbuttoned shirtsleeves call after premature dogma I lost my muse once you cam online *shakes a fist madly*.... Well, up until I lost the point of that thing I was writing, I have to say that your impression of school was very different to what I'd been through. Eh, it's a weird world and things happen differently all the time, why was I so surprised? Love what you do chicka...  Are you scared? |

I freakin' love this - you know I do. Still don't agree with the title but everything else is fabulous. It has such an innocent slant on it whilst being completely defiant. I never make any sense in your replies anymore.  I really did like it though, Jen. This would probably be one of the faves from you. *sigh* So many windows to look through, only a small amount of window cleaner. Me Anti Lemming Crusader - Fight against the conformity! |

i have this little black abyss stuck somewhere around my nose, but i'm not quite sure. i just know it's somewere between my mouth and my brain, because everything i think gets sucked while trying to get to my mouth. thus, i never make sense with ANYTHING i say. because it's not really what i think. i think? now did that make any sense? /jen/ what if they gave a war, and nobody came... |

High school....bah... Sometimes it was okay...and you want out so terribly badly- and then you get out, and it's like CRAP now I have to actually make something of myself. I graduated, now what? Real life is scarier than high school...and it's so much longer!!!  I don't want to grow up anymore.  This was really well done...made me think about things. Jenn Why is it that we are at our most ingenius only when trying to destroy the things that keep us alive and thriving? |

High school wasn't so bad. Skipping ropes and psychology textbooks kinda grow on you. Then again, so does athlete's foot. Parasite |
