That's right, I'm back! Did ya miss me?
So, yeah, as many of you know, I've been home from Germany for a week now, and I'm sure that those of you who read all of these posts *cough*Lauren*cough* are wondering what the hell I've been doing.
I've been contemplating closing the blog.
For the past couple of weeks, I've been in a terrible writing slump. I can't seem to write anything that I think is any good, but I am trying. At the moment I have two big writing projects going on, a collection of my poetry and a play that I honestly need to have finished writing in the next month!!! (I'm terrified), so as you might guess, the blog is sort of low on my list of important things that need to be worked on, writing wise.
I would have written more about Germany, but at the moment I cannot put pictures from the trip on the internet (school rules), and probably won't be able to for at least another week or two. I'd really rather have pictures to go with my explanation of why Germany is so incredible, because words really can't do it justice, so that's another reason I haven't put anything up, because the moment I do, someone is going to go, "What about Germany??"
So, between the rule about pictures and my awful writer's block, I haven't really felt any reason to write on the blog.
Today though, something magical happened.
I wrote a poem that I LIKED!!!
So, that's what I have for you today. Keep in mind that it's really still a first draft, which means that I give all of you permission to tear it to shreds. Have fun.
Father's Day
Celebrating father's
day without you,
is like a bar of chocolate
without its wrapper-
exposed to the burning son-
(I've never felt freer).
Seriously though, guys, rip this thing to shreds; that's why I put poems up here.
Thing to be grateful for today: Random acts of assurance.
