poems are sick (as in cool not ill) ((well ill as in sick but thats...)

I keep forgetting to post!!

I made this recording on soundcloud of a
poem i wrote about lame stuff

its pretty personal and hard to understand out of context but im hoping thats ok!!

heres the poem

I recorded it a while back but didnt make it public untill just now

In other news

Me and a couple others in the class went to check out the iPads in the library and
played around with the different programs on there.

Some were really cool, and read you poems when you interacted with them
or allowed you to create a poem from random bunches of words that darkened or turned white when you clicked on them

My favorite program though was the one that had a few words on a white background
for you to rearrange into a poem
so i figured we could all make different poems with the same words and see how they came out

mine was

The sorrows grinning
Softer eyes
watching
decidedly fallen
hoping to change


I think i prefer poems that
are quick but also full of meaning
because you are able to interpret them how ever you choose
and sometimes you can relate or understand them better when they're open ended

I also tend to enjoy poems that use words differently in different contexts
like how fallen
could mean a ton of different things not just falling down on the ground
but also fallen into a state of emotion
or fallen to the self

ANYWAYS!!
yep
