There was a wild magic man
With wonderful wizardly ways
Who with just the shake of his hand
Could make shadows sing and sway.
There was a painter who likewise.
Played tricks with colors and light
He dressed canvas with sweet disguise
and from them sprung truths so bright.
And when it went from dawn to day
And all the shadows hid away
The painters works sat out to dry--
to sit forever weaving fact from lie.

Why, oh, why, Hephaestus, be so divinely un-divine.
While Jesus turned the other cheek,
Buddha set crossed legs down by the creek,
But you-- you leapt right to her defense.
Too bad the upright are first to limp,
And why waste worship on the almighty wimp
Why love a cripple, when you could fuck a pimp?
You can even catch them in the deed;
It wont change the Olympians holy creed;
So go ahead and cut that useless limb.
Such abuse makes you just like man,
No thundering arrows, no rolling ruled lands.
Youre just barely immortal, and good with your hands.
Youre heavenly Hephaestus, the divinely un-divi

It's easy these days,
to rip on the gays,
to bash on the blacks,
to lead the attacks,
no one inspires.
Nothing's required,
to break and take,
to crush what's lush,
Killing's easy; dying's even better,
Foolish words that I've heard,
From the idiotic who've been lured.
To make someone feel,
to make someone think,
to be able to heal,
to put love in your ink,
That is a gift,
to be able to lift,
to be able to love,
to be able to grow,
to be able to know,
and to be able to show.
I don't want to hear what tires you,
I want to hear what inspires you.
What would you die for?
cry for?
live for?
give for?
Life's too short to

Would you believe Stanford? :S I'm actually going to shoot for early action so I can still have more time to look at other colleges-- man, it's tough knowing where to start. Maybe you can tell me how you found out about Haverford?
And I answered your question in your poem; take a look
We need to talk sometime. Things have been... interesting these past years or so.
