#word thief

[lobotheduck]

  I stole this pen I now write with, but I've never stolen a heart. I feel as though my future is quite looking up for a subtle thief such as myself. my health might be on the decline, but my spirits have never felt higher... I am a thief in the night, a thief in the night—rain or shine. Don't dare to forget my smile for I am the thief in the night, and I am politely coming for you.

  Love,

 Me

Poetry Thief

I’ve surrounded myself in so many various parts

I’ve forgotten how to remember what’s really in my heart

What’s truly me

And what’s poetry’s falsity

It becomes difficult to distinguish

Between lies and true anguish

Masked in poignant language

All of it has semblance

To messy tears

And paper tears

Knotted hairs

How will I fare

When all the lies are stripped from me?

What truth remains beyond embellishment

Will they relish in my punishment

When will lies no longer leave my lips

And hang pleasing the anxious eyes

Who can relate to things I create without my heart

So I keep lying keep trying

To ravage myself

If I feel pain

Maybe I can write the same

As the broken poets

Selfish self-destruction

My sheltered life is an obstruction

So I'll create myself tragedies

And comedies and comic tragedies

A Shakespeare without the talent

A poet without the pain

So I’ll just take

Poison from someone else's vein

And turn it into ink

Word Thief Some steal goods, money, and lucre - but not you. You steal meaning. You walk among crowds plucking the best words from unknowing mouths leaving them jumbled and dumbfounded. You sell meaning in moonlit MEME MARKETS to those without. Giving words weight and lies truth. -M

Word Thief - Success

“To become a success, you need many things. Anyone successful will tell you that. No matter what you pursue, there are traits that one needs to hone to ensure success. Perhaps most commonly described are traits such as perseverance, ambition, talent, luck. All things which one might have little to no control over. Something I personally believe to be one of the most important things is presence. Presence can be a powerful thing, pulling eyes towards you and away from others. It’s a driving force of the market. It can be a powerful tool in conflict, both economic and military. The presence of something affects everything around it. On the path to success, presence is what will determine what will rise to the top. Growth can be small, or it can be meteoric, but to maintain it, one must maintain its presence, otherwise it shall fall to the wayside. It is due to this that a weak presence will often be extinguished, or forgotten. Ones presence is stronger when there is less competition to dilute it. It is an unfortunate truth, but it is not enough to succeed; others must fail. Only with the failure of others will the presence of the successful be all the stronger.”

So, I got introduced to Sherlock today by Morgan & I loved it! In fact, I loved it so much, I thought I'd be creative and create a word related to Sherlock, however I soon learned that this word had already been created -_- Damn you, whoever first created the word, Sherlockian! Mark my words, you will pay, for stealing my word!

She is only a metaphor for childhood and a poem is a metaphor already. Do you see? They all nod. They see. Except for the girl with her head in the rabbit hole. We ran so hard we though we spit blood, to me that is the sound of childhood, heavy breathing and shoes scraping the hard earth. The constant ringing of the bells in death ceases and I can no longer listen to the flowers as they begin to wilt, but I can see them wrap around bodies in the ground asking for the last bit of molecules before they rot.
