Rudolpho

Rudolph, who I'm sure you've all heard of, wasn't so happy guiding Santa's sleigh no more. He got sick of it! So, he changed his name to Rudolpho. That's right. And now he's doing what he loves doing, rapping in the streets day by day. He's out there changing lives...

(I think that's 50 I've counted it like 3 times. So let's hope)

Blurbs

King of Anything:
Sara a young teenager has hit the limit with the guy she's been with. She has finally taken a stand and lets him know that he's not in charge of her life! What a waste of time, that one. Sara is moving on.

Just me and my B:
Biggie has met the girl of his dreams. He made the decission to make her his wife. Now they are just going through life like regualr joe's. When suddenly his wife is killed. Why him? Why now?

Love Story:
A Romeo and Juliet classic! Taylor wants her Romeo to save her from her lonliness. They sneak out, to avoid the unaccpetance of eachothers parents. One thing led to another, soon enough he was on his knee and they were man and wife. The End!

Pray:
Justin stops and takes a look at his life. He is so blessed and fortunate. All he wishes for is that the people who are unfortunate can be just as blessed. If only he could do more...the only thing left to do is close his eyes and pray.

Mockingbird:
All Eminem wanted to do was shield his kids from the things he had seen as a child. He works hard with his job and his marriage, but it just never seemed to be enough. He never wanted it to be this way. Now he sings them a lullaby at night letting them know that their daddys is still here.

"Top 10 sixers"

Well...I didn't wanna do numbers. Plus I think I have more than ten.
- Don't give up on your destiny
- There isn't any better than here
- Still trying to impress my dad
- A whole bunch of second placers
- Don't wait for the last visit
- Oh well, what you waiting for?
- As you grow you learn more
- Finally threw away my teddy bear
- Shut up and kiss me fool!
- There are no mistakes, only lessons
- Always try to wear a smile
- Dance in rain, don't get wet

Impulse II

Malorie and 17 year old just lost her boyfriend in a car accident. She was offered a scholarship for dance and doesn't want to take it because of the pain she feels when she is reminded of him (which dancing seems to do). Her brother tries to convince her otherwise.

M- I don't wanna talk about this anymore
B- Well then what are you gonna do about it, because I can't just sit here and watch you give up
M- There's no reason for me to keep going
B- Yes, there is. Did you read this letter?
M- Yeah...B- SO! Your just gonna throw it all away?
M- You don't understand ok.
B- What is there to not understand? I know he's gone...but he would want you to keep dancing Mal
M- And what would you do if you lost sophie? You would quit everything
B- I know. But your stronger than me and that's why I'm pushing you
M- He won't be there watching me anymore...I just don't feel right dancing cuz I loved doing it for him. And he loved watching me. I can't do it without him
B- He wants you to be happy and I'm sure he wants to see you doing what you love
M- Well is it too late to accept the scholarship?
B- Go get the letter.            What's it say?
M- Tomorrows the last day...
B- Well give em a call
M- But I don't have a video to send in
B- Then get downstairs and start practicing. Your amazing Mal. There's a reason that school wants you    (pause)  well...GO you don't have any time to waste
M- (hopeful smile) I'll try...

THE END

Horrendous Poetry (do you want a peanut?)

I miss you big. 
bigger than a paper clip,
bigger than my bottom lip,
bigger than a tiny ship.

Bigger than like BIG.

Just like so big man, i can't even fit my mouth around it.
Good thing you don't have a zit.
Cuz then i would feel like a twit.

I couldn't fit my mouth around a truck.
I couldn't fit my mouth around a schmuck
for they are human and are too big
i just watched holes so now i really wanna dig

When you're gone i miss you bIg

so stop leaving and i mean it!
anybody want a peanut....?

Direct Orders

So what do you do...you rock the f*** out!!!
Like...rock out like you just won the prize you gave up everything to win.  Rock out like you just saw your best friend you haven't seen in ten years...unintentionally!  Rock out like you're in the middle of the dance floor and all eyes are on you!  Rock out like Bill and Ted.  Rock out like you beat the rivalry team by one flippin point!  Rock out like you just remembered the funniest thing in the world.  Rock out like you're blind and today you opened your eyes to sight!  Rock out like you're freakin Michael Jackson.  Rock out like you're the life of the party!  Rock out like a scientist who found the cure to cancer!  Rock out like the love of your life walks out on you and then rushes back inside to grab your face and lay one on ya.  Rock out like the guy on the corner with an advertisement sign.  Rock out like you never have to go to school again!  Rock out like you're naked in the shower.  Rock out like you have no curfew, no plans, no cares...nothing but a dance floor.  Rock out like you got a 37 on the ACT!  Rock out like the world decided that everything was free!  Rock out like going on a krispy kreme diet makes you lose 15 pounds.  "Rock out like you throwing your window up on your honeymoon cuz you want the whole world to know what love is."  Rock out like your the last freakin person on earth and you see.......someone else.

Shake the Dust

This ones for the lonely.  For the hurt and the broken. 
   This is for the children sitting outside of hospital rooms. This is for the criminals.
For the rich and the famous. 

Shake the dust. 

This is for the kids that have high expectations of them.  This is for the ones that don't have a family.
   For the folks that sit on trains all day just to keep warm. 
This is for the abandoned.  For the people in this world who sleep through the night, dreaming of a better life without realization of reality until it hits them straight in the face.  This is for the trapped.

  Shake the dust. 

This is for the sluts and the skanks.  For the judged and the judgemental. 
   For the scared and the feared.
This is for the the bruised and the beaten.  For the dancers without legs.  For the droughts without rain 
   This is for that someone.  This is for that everyone.
Everyone that knows the meaning of pain.

Shake the dust.

This is for the failures.  This is for the cancer patients who have lost all control.
   This is for the unnoticed.  For those that feel like leaves in the wind.
or dust that just sits...

This is for the non-believers.
   For the people that have ever been numbed by the natural pain killers of a broken heart.
For the fists that are hit by the innocent's skin.

Shake the dust.

Shake it.

Those who are abused. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally.
For the deaf that will never grasp music.
For the discriminated and especially those that have no reason to be.
For the slaves that are captive by their own addictions.
Those that will never live up to expectations.

Shake the dust.  Until you can't shake it anymore because your shaken out.  Until your body aches because you have shaken so hard.  Until you are so fatigued that all you can do is expect the unexpected.

And know, that that dust is shaken.

I'm Thinking About You...

I'm thinking about you. I'm thinking about you like clouds think about rain. Like doctors think about pain. Like loss thinks about gain.  I'm thinking about you like once thinks about twice. Like the Chinese think about rice. Like snakes think about mice.  I'm thinking about you like ketchup thinks about mustard. Like yogurt thinks about custard.  I'm thinking about you like salt thinks about pepper. Like sugar thinks about spice. Like peas think about pods. I'm thinking about you like sailers think about sailing.  Like hail thinks about hailing. Like jailers think about...locking people up. I'm thinking about you like teachers think about teaching. Like singers think about singing. Like boaters think about boating.  I'm thinking about you like stars think about shining.  Like children think about whining. Like I think about signing.  I'm thinking about you like hearts think about beating. Like lungs think about breathing. Like eyes think about blinking.  I'm thinking about you like babies think about carriage. Like temples think about marriage. Like mothers think about miscarriage.  I'm thinking about you like kisses think about lips. Like dancers think about hips. Like gymnists think about kips.  I'm thinking about you like Romeo thinks about Juliet. Like Simon thinks about Garfunkel. Like Jekyll thinks about Hyde. Like Bonnie thinks about Clyde. Like you think about me. Like we think about three.  I'm thinking about you like hours think about minutes. Like minutes think about seconds. Like seconds think about time. Like time never ends.

Love is...

 1.  Love is a teetor totter balanced on emotions
 2.  Love is a band-aid
 3.  Love is a dove without wings (peacefully helpless)
 4.  Love is a marathon
 5.  Love is super glue
 6.  Love is a germ (it makes me sick but it's so contagious)
 7.  Love is an empty hospital bed
 8.  Love is a heart being thrown off a cliff (you hope someone will catch it)
 9.  Love is a peeing dog
10. Love is a mystery (if you're smart you'll hire a detective)

Captain. Captain Jack Sparrow if you please.  Now don't make fun but I took this class because...I love writing!! Savey?!  For some reason it brings me joy. Putting a pen to paper and just scribbling down all my thoughts is something that entertains me.
            
I hope to improve my writing this year. In a couple of ways.  First is strengthening my voice.  For awhile I've felt it was a strong point but there's always room for improvement.  Second aspect I would like to improve is my diction.  With something so vital, I feel I should always be working on it.  Last but not least, I hope to become more comfortable with my writing. Want to improve it. Want to share it. Want to make it known.  I'm hoping we can be best friends...

I enjoy singing, laughing, and dancing.  Three essentials in my daily life. I could spend a lifetime with my friends and be completely satisfied.  I'm searching for what I crave but haven't found yet.  As a pirate you're always looking for something new.

Some say the world is run on money.

Being a pirate I have an obsession with treasure.  You might be thinking silver and gold here.  However, that's not exactly what I had in mind.  It's my memories I treasure.  The friendships I've made.  And the adventures that I've had.  Life's too short to not enjoy it right?  I try to live in the moment, not let it pass me by too quickly.  Silver and gold is nice.  But it's not the most important object on this earth.  Rum's pretty close in my opinion...drink up me hearties yo ho!  Our experiences and lessons are what we bring with us. That's why I'm in school i guess.  I kinda like high school.  Sometimes. 

Really life as we know it could not exist without expression.

We could not function without writing...
