I would rebel and find a way to fight back, demanding that I be given a real body (of my own choosing of course!)
How would you spend your time if you knew it was the Earth's last day?
I did that once, not to make them feel bad but so that they wouldn't be embarrassed. It was this guy who thought I was someone else, and it first I thought he had just forgotten my name but by the time I realised he thought I was someone else I felt really bad about telling him that I wasn't her after all. I kept bumping into this guy everywhere.
Would you spend all night on a beach and walk home in the morning light?
I will save you all the trouble, it's my spot!!
I miss all those shops that used to sell scoops of icecream in a cone. Are there any other things that aren't there anymore that should be?
No, I would be as scared and meek as a mouse.
Would you line up for hours to get an autograph from your favourite rock star?
Today I am grateful for being alive!
Big111 has the cutest Garfield avatar ever!
Yes, as long as the river was nice and slow.
Would you ever leave your dishes on the sink for a week??!!
with a surname like White, I was always at the end of the line!
To walk in a brilliant orange sunset and feel that martian dust beneath my feet, just once, and find out if it really is as cold as hell and no place to raise your kids. But why did we ever think we were going to be attacked my Martians?
Margot for her wonderful heart and for always being there for me
Shawn because he touches my soul in so many places
My sweet friend
Always has a kind word,
Ready to share her love,
Gorgeous heart
Of purest gold
That shines.
When I was in high school we had a visit from a poet once. I remember she said that poets are motivated to write because they love writing poetry, not because they won't someone to dissect it later. She wasn't denigrating analysis of poetry, but encouraging us to just write what we feel in our hearts and if it's true then it is poetry. I was inspired by this and have written poetry nearly every day of my life since. I don't care if it doesn't meet academic standards or definitions of what a 'poem' is, because each one is a little part of me.
