Encompassed Nothingness

When winds howl through the certain sky,
One can see nothing but I,
For when one hears ones own vision,
One can ensure nothing but precision.

Naught but I, for thou I go,
But for here they stray and to and fro,
For longings and greatness,
And of those in lastness,

Nothing feels but encompassed.

Withering witches watch willingly,
Longing likenings like lathered lies,
Slowly seeping soundly so soon,
Exits endure ecstatic extroversion.

Like the hut on legs,
Without a brain to say,
For thou she doth begs,
Nothing naught o' nay.

Syntax

A phrase, a simple phrase,
Like the sentence of a golden aspect,
A thread o' time burnt by flames,
Like the moons shine in respect.

Ultimate discovery evoked from lips,
Gazed into the futures latest past,
Written down on papyrus by strong grips,
Ever seeping into the minds mast.

Less or fewer - battled or worn,
Gender or sex - condition or state,
Words forms from ashes born,
All puffs of smoke from red hesitate.

Quiero bailar contigo's remax
Mixing in fluent words of dance.
Me gusta cantar su's relax,
Everywhere I go I see your syntax.

A Sliver of Ice a Sheet of Flame

Cutting through the winds like dreams,
The fantasy can always become real,
But it takes the individual to seal,
A life time of condensed beams.

Sheets of ice melting to flame,
Burning away at the center.
Feeling the collapsed lung endure,
Ever chanting each others whim.

A peace. A tie.
Nothing to lie.
Nothing to see.
Nothing to tie.
All there was to be.

The squabbles of lifes fortuitious adventures...

As the tears pour from my eyes I ponder,
I ponder, I ponder, I ponder.
Wandering wishfully without wrath,
Wander outside the scope of our own misfortunes.
Life.
Living individually for everyone,
Everyone for individually (we) live,
Or do we live for life instead.

A marriage broken,
Not shattered.
Not without its amazement.
Not for thou art to be true,
A knot for which a tie shall undo.

Here we steep in the shackles of our rhymes,
-- What --
Here we steep together in our crimes,
-- Why --
For here we are in our squabbles of life
-- How --
For this is how we move forward in strife.

Life without passion isn't life,
Life isn't passion without life.
For what then hitherto is life,
Life is hitherto then what for.
All the glories and fortuitous adventures...
But, of course.
But, of course.

A misery seeping slowly, softly, suddenly,
An orgasm of life like the rippling of a soul,
Forever surrendering the adventure to the squabble,
Enduringly, courageously, blazing through the flames.

Just as it was done once before.
And once again it shall be done.
Life to be lived.
Life to be lived.

Little time with less space

So here we are. My family and I finally moved out of Arkansas and into the even more beautiful state of Colorado. They say Arkansas is the "Nature State" yet Colorado seems drastically more "natural." That said, finally got enrolled in a physical campus. I will be doing a review on Metropolitan State University of Denver, a.k.a "MSU Denver" in the next few weeks. It's a wonderful school. My daughter, Tamara, just got enrolled in daycare and a school and it feels so great. I am more excited that she gets to spend time with other children instead of being cooped up at home. Thus far, all is well.

I will be updating this more often in the few weeks and hope to add some poetry, short stories, and more articles and reviews!

On why characters defend those they love...

Characters defend those they love by attempting to outwit the opponents, and using courage, honor, and abilities attributed to their personality. More so, when a character tries to protect someone they love, a ripple effect occurs, sparking more threats in the future. This example can be seen in “Lord of the Rings” in which Frodo and Sam attempt to separate from the party for “the greater good” only to find trouble in Smeagle. Regardless, helping defend those you love happens on a physical mental, and emotional level. Frodo protects the group by separating (an act of morality), while his best friend Samwise Gangee protects him physically and mentally from the curse of the One Ring.

Another case is in the Dresden Files in which an ability, such as Magic, is used to protect those we love. Dresden has a multitude of abilities to help those in need such as an amulet, a ring, and a staff. At one point, he is also assisted by his ghostly assistant, Bob, the talking skull, who helps him to identify some of his crutches within the storyline. Nonetheless, people will always need friendship to get through struggles.

In Harry Potter, wit isn’t the only thing to save the day. Sometimes good ole’ fashion intelligence will help to incorporate the necessary treatments to protecting those you love. With Hermione Granger, that was exactly the case. Harry, a bloodline Wizard with immense abilities that needed to be awakened, was complimented by his friend Ron Weasley, though nothing could stop him and Hermione from trying to help their scarred friend. Ron, while clumsy, helped Harry in any way he could, whether it be with life issues, helping to teach him (Harry) his own solutions in life, or physically protecting him through magic through the source of a wand and incantations. Hermione, on the other hand, complimented and helped Harry through her intellect, harnessing much of her strength in a mental capacity.

All three of these examples exemplify how heroes can save those the love, though the common fact of each is that they all need to help each other, not just one-sided-wise. Regardless, the purpose of helping those you love is not to anticipate further perils, but to initiate stronger ties with other people, to showcase the strength, and ultimately inspire generations before you.

Frodo, Harry, and Dresden all have abilities and tributes of leaders, but all three relied on others for their ability to save loved ones. Not one of them could have done it alone, but all of them had the will, courage, and heart to take up the mantle of the hero. Overall, the heroes of a tale need to find something more than themselves to accomplish anything in the world. Hesitation can kill you, but so can lack of trust for those around you. The reason characters, in my opinion, defend those they love, is so they can help to exemplify their own personalities.

Growth, power, and wisdom come from these personality traits, but nothing can stop a hero who is trying to save a loved one. Few people will admit that heroes can ever take away something from themselves without first giving. As such, in real life, heroes are crafted by their actions. So too are we, and the characters. The just is that while many rely on powers and those around them, it’s what comes inside that helps to define who we are as heroes, saving out loved ones.

Creative Assignment: Part VIII

Chapter VIII: The Beginning of the End

            “Gah!” Tamara cried as flesh melted off her shoulder. She dealt the finishing blow to the Flame Giant and her attention was now on the Wooden Man.

            The fight between The Faerie of the Wind and Lady Ice escalated into the clouds and out of site. Lightning, cold rain droplets, and thunderous sounds emerged from the clouds, but the two sister’s physical forms were not seen.

            “Focus… Focus…” Tamara concentrated, shrugging off the pain.

            She had just defeated a giant. Her confidence levels spiked. With a quick dash, she ran towards the Wooden Man, slashing through the vulnerable tree-creatures in her way.

            The Wooden Man turned to her, looked over at the fallen Flame Giant and sighed.

            “What a pity. One more homo sapien to eradicate… Oh! And this one has a shiny sword.” He licked hi solid lips and gazed at the woman coming towards him. “This should be fun!”

            The fight between the Wooden Man and Tamara raged on. Tamara came out victorious and falling from the sky came The Faerie of the Wind. Rushing to meet her, Tamara was met with a cold hand.
            “Foolish child… Did you think you could beat me?!” The Lady Ice threatened.
