For Your Consideration

So, I had some free time today, and I thought I'd try my hand at a more serious poem than those I usually write... this one is mostly unrhymed verse, though it has a little rhyming at the end. Some of the constructions are a little odd, I'll grant you, but it was all intentional and I think it turned out pretty well overall. So, without further ado, here it is:

Love

Love is an explosion of color,

A rainbow of lightness and hope,

That without which nothing glows,

That without which nothing lives.

Love is a drink to the thirsty,

Relief to the tired and weak,

Peace to the war-weary soldier,

Peace to the world-weary servant.

Love is the greatest lost cause,

The one thing still good in this world,

The greatest of fights still worth fighting,

The greatest of battles still young.

Love is a voice and a song,

Sweet music of sadness and joy,

A glorious symphonic waltz,

A glorious anthem of woe.

Love is a dream half-remembered,

Faint pictures of what may come true,

The folly of hopes and ambitions,

The folly of betting on God.

Love is the truest of truths,

Love is the falsest of lies,

Love is what all men have and most lose,

Love is what no man must ever despise.

So, whatja think? Should I write more of this kind of heavier thing? I'm planning on posting some more of my poetry (mostly lighter stuff) in the coming weeks, so you can look forward (or not) to that. Farewell for now!

A Quick Shout-Out

Hey, all! Again, I don't have time for a proper entry, but I want to share an exciting trailer for a new production by my friends the Markley Bros. It's a quick preview of a brand new web series coming out this fall, and I'm very excited about it! Hopefully, after watching, you'll be excited about it too :)

Here it is: Trailer: Bucking Sailboat Season One

That's all I have time for right now... time for some much-needed rest :)

Farewell!

Life Starts Now

Hey, all, I'm back now. I realize this was a lot more than a month, but I've been busy graduating from high school. This particular entry will be brief, but I want to assure you all that I've been busily looking at new formats, projects, and ideas for this blog. In the meantime, to keep all my loyal viewers entertained, here are a few short bits of original humor by yours truly. These just happened spontaneously as I was filming an unrelated school project. Enjoy! :)

I hope to make more of these in the future, too, which I'll post as they happen. In addition to this, there are a few Youtube projects in the works that I'm not at liberty to discuss yet. But I assure you, they're... interesting. Farewell!

Notice

Due to various factors, I'm afraid I must take a monthlong leave of this blog... since my posts aren't frequent enough anyway, this probably won't cause all that great of a ripple in anyone's existence, but just in case I have a devoted fan somewhere, somehow, I promise to be back and writing a new entry after I return on February 8th. Talk to you then! :)
