Who Am I?What can I say? Everytime I sit down, with time to myself... I'm empty.Who Am I?
Who am I? This girl who feels almost nothing Every single day.
Something, Tears at me and pulls me away From society.
What can I say? Are these smiles geniune, or just A facade?
Who am I? Doomed to wander my days, Faking happiness?
Something, Has got to change, I need to feel, I need to live.
What can I say? You never really knew me all these years, For I never let you in.
Who am I? &nb


TristeI thought I could hear it raining, But it was just the wind complaining And to my surprise, I lowered my eyes To keep my tears from drainingTriste
I thought I'd done all my biding, But the pain was still in there hiding And I wondered why No rain makes me cry And I'm left here self-guiding
I thought perhaps someone would call, But nobody had done that at all So, in silence, wept... And in silence, slept With my face turned to the wall
Even now I've no words left to say Just the thought to get up -
Not to waste the day An
...our poetry. It's nothing trying to be great, but it has its merit. It's all done with at least 2 people which is the testament to the art of work together. What I try to do with poetry is quite simple (I can only speak for my part of this team) I want the reader to be able to clearly understand it from 2 different aspects .
1. After they read it they should be able to understand the poem's relevance in their life, the poems should be metaphorically theirs.
2. After they are done reading the author should tell them what the poem is about, explaining it in detail. If it is a good poem it will make sense to them.
So I am definitely not a "fu-fu" poet. My partner and I are renegades in our twenties we enjoy independent music (punk, metal, jazz, rap). We wear hand me down clothes, smoke cheap rolling tobacco, drink good dark beer and box wine. I am homeless and jobless and I have crutches and problems. responsibillty. My daughter is my life. I am a real Anarchist (Anarchy isn't chaos).
So please enjoy the poetry. My partner and I are making a zine and we are using Deviant Art as a drafting pad. So please give us some constructive criticism.

throughout my life, i've been obsessed with change (a sixty-foot treehouse lying on its side).
lately, i'm obsessed with ideas of contrast: (flowers versus chainsaws) versus (dreadlocks versus wheelchairs) versus (women versus wires) versus (love versus hate) versus (sex versus sex). i am a college student and i make college student art that will probably never take me anywhere. this project is very important to me.
