A Man Made of PaperHe's a man made of paper
Some have marked him with a highlighter
To remember times when they loved him
But he has turned the page

There's music notes
Blotted with ink
Over his fingers and toes
So that people hear his song
When he shifts past them

He's a man made of paper
And his brain is filled
With journal entries
Scribbled incoherently
And he waits for the day
When someone will read it

He's limited by words
Of blood and bone
And wind combing between
Strands of hair

He's a man made of paper
Not of flesh
He breaths not
For he is only an idea

DiamondsHidden within every story

Book

Poem

Is a plethora of diamonds
Some are clear
And glint brightly in sunlight

I clutch them to my chest
And polish them

Sculpt them

Keep them with me

Sometimes when words of dust
Are brushed away
Therein lies a black diamond
Blotched with rust
And swelling with fissures

Cracks

Splinters

They glint just as brightly
And I keep them with me

As wellDiamonds by ~UkeBug

Somewhere ElseI want to be somewhere
Where it’s okay to be silent
It’s okay to have no expression at all

On the plane-ride there
I’ll empty out my body
With an ice cream scoop
Until I am nothing

And with eyes as empty
As a statue
I’ll arrive at my destination
With unfamiliar smells
Unfamiliar sights
And different emotions
Leaking from every crack in the sidewalk

With this new world
I’ll allow it to combine
My bones of sponge
Will soak up thoughts
I've never thought of before

And I’ll become someone newSomewhere Else by ~UkeBug

UnfamiliarDo you remember
The streets of your neighborhood
At night-time?

Stars like humming neon lights
Above you
Street-lights glaring orange
Over your head

Time can't touch
Silence this absolute
There are no children
On the creaking swing-sets
No cars crunch past
Through the gravel in the parking lot

The only noises
Come from the breeze
Breathing unfamiliarity

"I was here,"
You think in a frightened tone,
"In this park
Only hours ago"

"Where am I?"Unfamiliar by ~UkeBug

I was struck with an idea today, for a short story. I've been thinking about it for hours. It'll be called "The Neighborhood", and I have a very rough idea what it will be about. A deserted little col-de-sac, with things like, hoses still running flooding the dead lawns. Dusty windows, TV's hissing out static, and everything looking abandoned and decrepit, as though people were TAKEN. I'm not quite sure how I want to go about it, but I'm actually kind of excited about it.

Inspired by this song, also by "The Neighbourhood."

I'm a writer and that is truly all I identify as. Words have always been my only means of conveying emotions.
