| I can definitely relate to anyone's negative high school experience. Unfortunately it wasn't until I was out for a few years before I realized there were other alternatives to "Constantly sinking deeper into the quicksand of tedious doings" (well put, Red). I've never been one to write much poetry, but I did write this short piece after a well-dosed Ozzy concert last year:
Such an outpour of energy, emotion, positivity.
Then, you rise above it all,
Connect with all who are embracing.
Eyes are wide open, hands are waving,
Heads are aggressively nodding yes, YES!
Non-believers are left in awe,
envy, and disbelief!
We are all gods tonight! OZZY!
"Rising above" refers to my crowd-surfing experiences. Maybe it was just because they were having a great time, too, but all the other crowd-surfers had enormous pupils, and I was sure they had all injested as well! The non-believers are the assholes who get general admission tickets but just want to stand there holding their ground the whole show and not let skids like me get back up to the pit...they just don't get it.
Good string, Red. Hope to hear more writings from everyone.
