Another poem from.....uh.......3rd batch. Im sooooooo tired. I went to the movies and saw "the watcher" or whatever with keanu reeves. UHhhh i do not recomend it. It's so predictable and plus its simply uncanny how we, the robot minded individuals with great leaps in technology, cannot stop a serial killer with our wonderful utensils of nothingness. I mean, they kept on loosing the guy! Thats a bunch of (*&#(&@ he woulda been caught in like....the first time they were after him.....not the billionth one! But oh well its a movie eh? hahaha sorry just felt the need to inform.

Chess:


Urine drips away into the sunset
As my life wastes away slow.
You and I are nothing to be
Like a water current in a confusing flow.

What exactly am I doing here?
A question everyone asks.
Just be yourself is one main rule,
Yet even the highs of lows wear masks.

Nobody knows me or my mind.
Something I am very proud of.
Name unknown, character in a mist.
All i'm doing it turning push to shove.

Rudely living in my ways.
Nothing serves to stop me.
My mind has no fences, and no gates
And that's just a small fee.

Cheers to those who think a thought
Yet dead ends are their fate.
Discriminiation is a thought
That only leads to hate.

Laying here in rose pricks of life
Praising my ode of me.
We are crowded space in the world
As I have come to see.

Arts and fashion are well enough.
Writing and thinking are under-rated.
Reason and logic are trash in a dump.
Ignorance and you are but gold plated.

Thinking a thought in mind
As thought is to express.
Souls go on as bodies die
Because life is a game of chess.






I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

great poem. I feel this way all the time, In all truth, most people are just pawns, we are hardly remembered after we pass on, or as hamlet put it: "It is indeed noble that the legacy of a great man outlive his life by half a year."

A very thought provoking poem and well constructed Javier! Applause to you on striving to be your own entity amongst a world where followers can often be swallowed up amongst the masses. You will go far ... keep up the great writing!  

Best wishes,
/Kit
