Do something witchy!

Do something freaky!

Leave your mark.

Make them remeber your name.

If your going to go down,
then go down grandly.

Make a big red splash,
leaving a stain on the memory,
of those left behind.

Do something crazy!

Do something unique!

Write the words on
the pages of history.
Leave your name
on the tongues of the meek.

You haven't lived...
if no one knows.

Do something dark!

Do something sublimely!

Do it beautifully!

But whatever you do,
burn them with you memory...
for this is true immortality

BRAVO!!! Oh my gosh, this is soooooo emotionally powerful, sweet friend, yes, yes, may we all write how we feel so when our time comes and we no longer live, we can pass these words of poetry onto our children to share with them all we learned and felt! (sigh) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is excellent! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Wes, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

now this I like. . .

I can see it on the wall of a museum somewhere. . . "painted poetry", you could call it. . . words on canvas, rather than paper or screen. . . what do you think???

well done. . . this needs to be seen more. . .
