It has been two hours and I’m still not over Inconsolable Differences.

#I have calmed down #considerably absksvsjsgajg #I hopped off tumblr and journaled and mulled things over and excitedly talked about to my sister #she didn’t care so I stopped after a few minutes lol #and mulled over it some more #wrote a poem #Thought #I no longer feel like running around in a field and screaming into a pillow #but I’m most definitely not over this wonderful amazing emotional gut-wrenching AAAAAAH stream #sigh :’)#my post #my dsmp thoughts

Ok so bear with me

It’s really late at night but I wrote a poem because I was missing what home feels like so here you go.

There’s no place like home

A home you build

A home beyond the trees

For the home that you find

Is the one so divine

Oh darling, there’s a home for us

We’ll build it

We’ll find it

We’ll find a way

For there is a home like no other

There’s a home on the other side

Of the darkest tree line

Of every cloudy day

There’s a home

Where we can go

It’s the home that we’ve built together

We fought for it

Died for it

Paid the full price

And now it’s ours forever

A place for our hearts

With nothing quite like it

This home is ours forever

And so darling stay

And come on inside

Our home welcomes you

And dear, so do I

My heart in this home

Is waiting for you

So darling, my darling, make it your home to

Did you die for it?

Find it?

Follow me here?

It’s our home, together

From joint blood, sweat, and tears

It’s our place, our place

A home like no other

A home where our hearts lay forever

#poetry #poem #wrote a poem #It’s the middle of the night #Sorry it’s messy #Hope you enjoy #I have so many Feelings #about home #Home feels weird to me #Home has never felt like a reachable concept for me #So this poem is a wish I guess?#Sorry I’m rambling

benthic angel

was writing about lake sturgeon for a class assignment and showed one of my friends what i'd written.. he then sent part of it back to me with line breaks to turn it into a poem! i just had to draw something for it :]

poem text under the readmore:

lake sturgeon don't know that they're endangered. They don't know anything - other than the muck at the bottom of the water column and the occasional passing touch of another.

really touched by how my friend turned my technical writing into poetry. i haven't tried to write creatively in months, so it's nice to see i've still got it- and nicer still that i could get so inspired by my friend, since i haven't made nature art in a little while, either :>!!

#art #digital art #ms paint #clip studio paint #(<- drew it in ms paint and then slapped on some effects + the text using csp)#animal #fish #sturgeon #lake sturgeon #fishblr #poem #poetry #i want to do this for another poem as well.. my crush wrote a poem about fireflies and i want to make art based on it so badly <3 #hall of fame #1k #5k

his handprint may be burned into your skin but it's still the gentlest touch you've ever received.

#smth smth destiel #cas was always so gentle with dean #he knew of dean's pain and wanted to ease it!!#he wanted to be a good thing in dean's life!!#when he pulled him from hell it wasn't truly pulling #he cradled dean like he was the most precious thing in the world #and honestly he probably WAS the most precious thing in the world to cas #even as early as then #to quote 'when castiel first laid a hand on you in hell he was lost'#god they make me insane #dean winchester #castiel #destiel #supernatural #does this count as fanfic even if it's one sentence #a poem perhaps #idk it's something that i wrote so i'll take it

I think there’s something so deeply and intimately and morbidly true about The Last of Us’s primary thesis which is that humanity’s fatal flaw, in that very Shakespearian way, is that we are destined to care too much about one another so much so that we discard the collective entirely. like we have such a capacity to love the human race and humanity as a whole, to grow our communities and govern cities how we know best and foster such connection with the masses which we are part of, but it’s overtaken by our capacity to love even just a single other person. like one human can come into your life that creates such an intrinsic and passionate love in you— or maybe two people or a family’s worth or any small number— and you suddenly would burn entire villages down just to keep them safe.

joel doesn’t blink twice murdering to find ellie. he doesn’t look back when he decides to do what he does at the hospital later on. he has no remorse about any of it it, because this one girl has grown to mean more to him than any possible greater good could ever mean. and it’s reciprocal. ellie would— and does— do anything she can to help him, save him, protect him, and, eventually, to avenge him. because that’s what you do when you love someone. not when you love people. when you love someone.

and it’s selfish, in a way??? because we love these people and would do so much for them because they mean more to us than other strangers do. it’s exactly like an iteration of the trolley problem, actually. one track has your daughter on it and one track has fifty people. don’t even try telling me you wouldn’t go onto track B if it meant saving your daughter and her puppy dog eyes from the whimpering and pain and fear. The Last of Us says yes, you would. I would. we all would. and like yeah that is our greatest weakness, that we have such a unique ability to love a handful of people so deeply that our compassion towards community and strangers and the bigger collective starts to slip from view. but goddamn what a fucking great fatal flaw it is to have. we are all going to die and the world will burn because we loved another person too much.

#i wrote a poem about this #idk if i should post it bc i dont want to risk someone stealing it #but yeah… this concept has me really thinking #the last of us #the last of us hbo #hbo the last of us #tlou hbo #hbo tlou #tlou #the last of us spoilers #tlou spoilers #joel miller #ellie williams #joel and ellie

An Invitation

What I want to say is

I like your face,

I think about

your hands on me,

but I don’t say this

aloud,

and yet everything

about me is an invitation,

an open door,

a conjuring of clothes

on a bedroom floor,

and I’m not sure who

will make the first move,

only that one of us will,

and it feels like a song

I once knew

but forgot, you feel like a song

I once knew,

come closer,

let me sing it back to you.

#poem #poetry #I should be writing other things #but instead I wrote this

goodnight carbonized bread loaf

goodnight kitchen pan

goodnight plaster cast

of a terrified praying man

goodnight temple of isis

goodnight pots made of clay

goodnight graffiti of gladiators

and goodnight pompeii

#tagamemnon #wrote this little poem thinking about how important pompeii is to me. goodbye #queueusque tandem abutere catilina patientia nostra

The idea that uni protesters are "elitist ivy-league rich kids larping as revolutionaries" on Twitter and Reddit and even here is so fucking funny to me if you actually know anything about the student bodies at these unis. Take it from someone who's going to one of the biggest private unis in the US, 80% of the peers I know are either from the suburbs or an apartment somewhere in America, children of immigrants, or here on a student visa. I've heard about one-percenter students, but I've never met one in person. Like, don't get me wrong, the institution as a whole is still very privileged and white. I've talked with friends and classmates about feeling weird or dissonant being here and coming from such a different background. But in my art program, I see BIPOC, disabled, queer, lower-income students and faculty trying to deconstruct and tear that down and make space every day. So to take a cursory glance at a crowd of student protesters in coalitions that are led by BIPOC & 1st/2nd-gen immigrant students and HQ'd in ethnic housings and student organizations and say, "ah. children of the elite." Get real.

#also idk how to tell you this but even if it were true. wealthy children potentially sacrificing their educational careers to protest is #a good thing actually. idk how to tell you that caring about people from other nations is good #personal #“this war has nothing to do with most students cuz nobody's getting drafted” idk how to explain to you that we should be angry #that our tuitions of 10s of thousands of dollars that we pay every year for an education is being used to fund a genocidal campaign #also the implication that if you go to a uni institution you are automatically privileged by participation no matter your bg #i didn't /want/ to go to this school. i was supposed to go to a school with an art/animation program. but i realized my immigrant #parents have been working their whole lives to get me here. and turning the opportunity down would be a disservice to their sacrifice #this is getting into convos of “what 2nd gen kids owe their parents” which is different for everyone but. yeah #i just get pissed off at seeing people misrepresenting student bodies as “wealthy” and “privileged” and “elite” when it's such a blatant li #i remember a year ago a friend told me they can't fly home to hong kong for winter break because the plane tickets are too expensive #so they have to find temporary housing around the area #last quarter for a film doc class my film partner made a doc on a small group of marxist grad students from india discussing praxis #during a rally a few months ago in response to police presence the coalition invited palestinian students to speak about their experiences #and lead songs and read poems they wrote. these are STUDENTS. are they elitist too?#this is not to disregard my own personal privilege either.#this whole narrative's just to rationalize a lack of empathy to me. seeing a 19yo student get shot by a rubber bullet and your first #reaction is “HAW! HAW! bet richy rich didn't see THAT coming when she put on her terrorist hood!”#newsflash. these big uni campuses are HAUNTED by the violence of past protests and revolutions and police brutality. we know.#why do you think these coalitions have been making reinforced barricades at record speed

i think it’s important everyone knows about the little roman girl who died at only five years and seven months old, and her grave reads "dum vixi, lusi" or "while i lived, i played"

#her epitaph actually has a much longer poem which contains this line #and it’s not like. stylistically high quality poetry either #which indicates this was not a poem someone was hired to write for the grave (as was a relatively common practice)#but instead written out of love by one of her family members #it’s twenty three lines of mostly correct dactylic hexameter #and it makes me bawl when i read it #we translated it in a latin class i took a few years ago and then wrote our own latin poems about our friends

Attention

#one piece #lawlu #hs au #monkey d luffy #trafalgar d water law #please please please read laws poem as corny and stupid I tried so hard to make it unserious in a way that was obvious how unserious it was #the first version of the poem my friend told me sounded to serious #so I wrote the poem I ended up using in about a minute please enjoy #in my freshman year of college I used to do freestyle raps at my roommate until she told me to stop because I thought it was so funny #sometimes it would go on for a seriously long time and still I persisted #I digress #my point is the poem about is 100% the structure of my freestyles in my freshman year of college

To a friend I never met

I know this might seem like a place of death And maybe it’s true Shelves lined with remnants of a time Not just forgotten, but before memory There is sadness here too Every fossil is a miracle and a tragedy in one But how can this place hold only sadness when you are here with me?

Your form is scattered Tumbled by the tides of the earth I will find its parts

Your hands are bare Stripped of strength and power I will hold them gently

Your bones are brittle Broken by unthinkable age I will make them whole

Your story is hidden Stifled by rock and clay I will make it seen

I could not be there To love you in your time I will love you in mine

#got emotional in the fossil lab today lads #wrote a poem about it #paleontology #fossils #science
