Adapted and abridged from the song "As If" by the (SC)band Cutlass, written by my other personality. Originally in the metal/goth/alt genre but hum whatever tune you hear in your head.
As IF
I'm Johnny Mister You, I'm nothing on your shoe; you wish I'd go away, I'll disappear today. I've burned this bridge before, I'm tired of being ignored; you ask, I'll come for more, I wonder why I'm torn. As if I didn't need you, as if I really wanted to. As if you weren't the life to me; as if you weren't the way I breath. I'v got the world on a string but it's coming 'round on me and if I was like you I'd run away; again...today, from everything that made me weak, afraid. Maybe I need to hate to live, something to forgive. Maybe life's a precipice, maybe life's a kiss. Maybe I'm just tired of this, maybe I could live-As
I've given up surfing, couldn't see the freakin' sandbars. I'm 20/200 in one eye and 20/250 in the other. I usually wear little granny glasses, I'll upload some new pics soon.
I am your finger puppet destiny. I mock your desire to learn, to understand, to quantify everything you percieve. Perceptions blur, twist and jade with time. I am stillness, when everything around you is screaming. I am belief, when all that you know is struck down. I am truth, which you know but can never speak. I am hope, when everything is falling around you. I am the end of your naive wishes and faith beyond apathy. I lead you when you can't see beyond today and show you that falling is a reminder that you should spend more time on your knees. I am a vicious circle which scars you so that you can survive. When great men and angels fall, I'll be with you. I am bound to voice the whispers in your soul and hush the murmers in your mind. I see the lost and I mourn them all but I know the reason which is lacking in this world lives openly in the next.
Someone else did their top-5 so I call it precedence.

I used to try to fit in but I think I've outgrown it. I don't dance because I was raised in a house where mom thought it was wrong. I use laughter as punctuation, I rarely feel it but I don't want people to be uncomfortable. I wrestle with that one every day because it conflicts with my belief in absolute truth and honesty.
Good point, art is in the eye of the beholder...but I must point out that the poetry threads are frequented by the more intellectual (usually) ladies while the "rosie the roller" thread is frequented by people the likes of....me.
If I weren't a little Civvy twerp I'd salute. That sucks man... I can however imagine the terror when the enemy finds out X-number of soldiers are coming their way, maybe a third look like Thud and none of them have had their smokes...Dang
They may not end forever but the effect is to create a paranoia that makes us remember to appreciate even the uncomfortable learning/growing experiences.
At least that was the intention, I guess it's hard give a painting definition with a single broad stroke, eh? I'll keep refining.
