As I Sit and Wonder by Destiny

(This poem was performed at the LVPL Teen Poetry Slam in April 2012.)

As I sit and wonder


I ask myself why he had to die


Taken at the hands of a drunk


In that very moment my heart sunk


But who was the drunk


A secret I swore I would never reveal


But here on this paper my heart spills


That drunk was my father


All that I had


And now that he's gone


I'm just suddenly sad


My best friend


And my dad


If you could see me now what would you say


Looking at  your daughter with tears rolling down her face

Not Right

The teasing,
The words,
They don't see,
How even that little bit,
That seems to be fit.

Not right,
Their might,
Too strong for me to fight.

The names,
The laughter,
It's all around me,
Surrounds me,
I can't see,
Their evil blinds me.

Not right,
Their might,
Must fight.

The evil they sing,
The good that's not there,
I want to take wing,
To fly, fly far away from here,
Like a bird in the sky.

Not right,
To tried of their might,
To weak to fight.

I'm gone,
So there is none,
Till in the morning,
I will face it again.

Not right,
That strong might,
To tired to fight,
So goodnight.

The Impossible Game

http://flukedude.com/theimpossiblegame/

Well, first things first is that the impossible game is in fact NOTimpossible. I have proven this a couple of times through long sleepless nights and a stream of profanity because even though the game might not be impossible like the title says they got it as close as humanly possible. So as a warning there is a certain way to approach this game, and if you are frustrated easily than you can throw any idea of getting this game out the window because this game must be approached with patience, lots of patience. The impossible game only has one level (but you can by two more with the addition of a map pack) but it will take literally weeks of honing your skills, memorization, and reflexes (I have more than 150 hrs of gameplay on my copy + map pack)to finally beat it the game has only one button yet (especially for beginners) the only thing you will hear for a long time is the same 3 seconds of music than the "phewww" of the sound bite that plays when you die and you will become very tired of hearing it but, that only adds to the euphoria you will experience when you FINALLY get past that one spot that kills you over and over and over only to die again almost immediately after but thats the way the game works and if you can't calmly start again then you just ain't cut out for the game.

DEADMAU5 -MUSIC

Deadmau5, a canadian house/trance/rave artist would be an amazing addition to anyone's ipod. if you like progressive trance, you'll love deadmau5. and its pronounced as "dead-mouse" not "dead-mau-five". I highly recommend you look up his debut album "random album title"
