Sermon Notes

Hey everyone. This is my blog. Hope you like. If you're wondering about the title, my first post was something I wrote while I was in chuch. As I made this site, I looked at the piece of paper and it was called Sermon Notes for Sunday April 24, 2005. Hence the name Sermon Notes, and the address sn4s. Comments appreciated.

Fallacious Preceptor

I can't stand you
Your bitter ways that say
"I don't care what you want"
Yet your ways press on me like an iron
Scalding my skin
But eventually the pain is numbed
The skin no longer feeling.
Your imprint is still there
Though i cannot feel it
The smoothness of years
Inconsistent with the holes of foolishness.
It spews out with the press of a button
Hot like your anger
But what can a wrinkled sheet do?
Besides become flattened by resounding pressure?
Don't worry
The wrinkles always come back
They always need smoothing.
Is that your intention?
Like rocks we become
Silent but smooth
At least in your eyes.
But brimming just beneath
Just beneath that calm surface
The rough layer lies
Like a duck on the water
Kicking...
Just waiting for the chance to fly away.
Was this always the point?
To silence the mind
You spent 12 years making?
Taught to speak, but told to listen.
Taught to argue, but never given the chance.
Taught to write, but given no paper.
Did you mean to create such ability
Only to cut off all outlets?
Examine your foundation
I think you've lost your vision.

Hey fellow University of Alabama goer! I'm really running out of compliments here because you keep putting up such awesome poems. You're either going to have to start not writing as well, or I'm going to have to start being more creative. Anyways, really really good, Nanna.

Well, that was weird. I typed in my whole name, but it only put n up there. Oh well, just letting you know that was me.

There is no stopping the creative mind, no blocking the creative juices. I think you need to start being a little more creative...I mean really N, its quite bland. MWAH! (LLII)
