I don't mean to post too much, but I'm trying to help get us started. Here's a poem or two... **NOTE** My poetry is copywrited, and published. Don't lower yourself to theivery. Feel free to ask me if you'd like to use something I've written. Thanks.

Some Things Are Best Left Behind
Setting melting footprints in the gritty, wet sand,
Do I cross into the wide-open blue where even as fish swim through
Spacious water waves shift the balance of the universe as it used to
Be, or do I tread the barrier between that and the clustered, solid land?
In the ocean, all possibilities are explored in the absence
Of everything else, and only then can it be understood how
The existence of said possibilities are profound,
Majestic, and cleansing in their individual wonder, anguish, or bliss.
However, past the shore the other way
Lies familiarity and no games of chance;
I know that there I won't loose all that I've got.
Thinking that I must grow up someday,
I leave behind the land with ease and dance-
Knowing you dared me to, yet you believed I could not.

Politics
Just a face and a name
With hidden priorities
And hidden shame.
They're all the same;
Corrupted (by) authorities.

You can post however much you want here as much as you want here.

Your poetry is very good and the first one is very enlightening. It must have been quite the experience and rush of emotions while writing that. Would you be so kind to tell me what inspired you?

The second one is short to the point and I fell represents a melancholy we all sometimes feel inside. Maybe that not every individual is said of high importance. Well I decree that here every member is of high importance and will be treated with such said respect as I have just decreed it. What inspired you to write this one?

Thank you... A lot of things were part of the inspiration. There were lots of different emotions put into it. Mostly I guess it's about growing up, and taking that step into being independant. Facing uncertainty with as much might and bravery as you can... ^ ^

Thanks again. It's just how I feel about politicians. There's also a saying I like to use concerning the subject: "You can go into the shower as a bar of soap, but you'll always emerge as scum."
And my fiance's favorite saying: "If you sleep with dogs you'll get fleas."

Your always welcome!

That's is great that you felt so empowered. Stay that way love keep growing never stop, when you stop growing you die, there's nothing else to learn.

I like both of those quotes they make perfect sense to me.
