I recently, today, released my first book, Apocalyptic Survey, on Lulu.com. It will soon be available on the Nook as well as on Apple's bookstore for iTunes When they are, I will share them on here again. But for now, you can read a sample on Lulu and purchase the book there. My book is a small collection of poems, the title poems tell a story of a boy, while the rest are poems of darker things. Don't worry they are safe for anyone to read.
On the same note, you can also buy my mother's book on lulu as well as Nook and Apple. Her's is much funnier than mine. Her's is a collection of short stories that will make you laugh. Below are the links to the books.
And I am writing more, trying to write more and more each day. This blog is part of that. Today I wrote a new poem. It is called Beautiful. I hope you enjoy it.
Beautiful
Your words fall silently
around me,
I see your mouth moving,
But you are wasting your
life.
It is not that I am not
listening,
You just are not worth
listening to.
You spout off your so
called knowledge,
But you never really look
at the facts.
You just repeat what
someone else says,
You have no words of
meaning,
That actually belong to
you.
Ignorance is your strongest
weapon,
It puts up walls no one
wants to get over.
You are a master at the
defense,
Your lack of intelligence
will disarm,
Everyone that ever tries to
talk to you.
We try to show you how to
live better,
Try to show you knowledge
and meaning.
But you only take fragments
of the least,
And make it seem like it is
the greatest.
You are a failure to all
who look at you.
No one will mourn your
loss,
Just sigh with relief.
Because for a little while
We can finally begin to
grow again.
Do the stars still shine?
Do the flags still wave?
Land of the dead,
Land of the useless.
America the beautiful.
