I understand you are very busy, spreading from one part of the world to another, but I still feel that I need to write you this letter and, hopefully, take up your time in reading this letter. I know, there is no way a simple letter from me could distract or stop you in the task you have taken upon yourself to complete but still, here I am, writing you this letter.

Let me introduce myself. I…

The scribe writes the stories

Of those who have no words;

Forgotten by those who hear

Screams of hate and false promises,

Cloaking, covering, corrupting.

For those who hear, the strokes

Of pain, injustice, and oppression

Are leaves in the wind, disappearing

When the hot breath of falsehood

Carries them away.

The scribe persists to write

These stories of…

For different people, I have different forms;

A fingerprint of personality,

Almost invisible in some and overfowing

In others but beautiful all the same.

I come in the sweep of color,

The stroke of graphite, in the

Click of metal and wire,

From the steel of spice and flavor.

I come from those who see the perfection

In the smallest of item.

I come from the…

A Unknown Hero Blooms Into Light

Book Review of “White Rose” by Kip Wilson

A lot of the time, when a person reads a history based book, it’s usually to put light to events and how people acted in them. By this, I mean the events are 100% real while the characters are a mere representation of what people did during that event. In the book, “White Rose” by Kip Wilson, we read, not only of a real event, but also of real people…

Baigun Salaan (Eggplant Curry)

In my family, we like our meat. Chicken, beef, goat, lamb, you name it and we’ll eat it. Vegetables? Not so much. It takes a lot of work and whole lot of creativity to get one of us, let alone all us to eat something plant based. My mother, who I swear is some kind of superhuman or something, did it. She made something that all of us, excluding my brother, ate, and, by golly, do we eat it. My mom…

Glittering delicately, diamonds from heaven,

Covering with a smooth sheen,

Blinding and beautiful.

A bright beginning belonging

To those who desire.

Though perfect, it is not.

With small paths of creatures hidden,

And holes of heat, beating down with strength.

With imperfection, comes beauty and stories

Of journeys and hardships, or character.

Then come…

To Write a Poem

To write a poem

Is a difficult process.

Words wage war on each other

In a battle for better lines.

Stanzas suddenly become stubborn

And horribly greedy,

Desiring four, then six, then ten

Perfect rows of letters.

The mind, though, draws a blank,

Creating silence and emptiness

On the pallid pages and lingering lines,

The pencil, a blunt sword.

To…

Ralph Breaks the Internet (2018)

Disney has finally come out with a movie that had me squeeling at every screen change, at every new character, but before I get into the movie, I will write a short summary.

Summary:

Assuming everyone has watched and know the first Ralph movie, we find our beloved characters, Ralph and Venelope von Shweetz, enjoying their friendship in the digital realm. During their talks at Tappers, the…

AenArt — 24ct Watercolor Brush Pens

I would have to say that these brush pens were a good buy. For the price of 12.99 (with prime), I would get these over again in a heart beat.These pens were definitely made for people like me, people who have a hard time making things with anything remotely artistic. Painting is especially hard for me because I have a hard time controlling the brush, creating images you would expect your…

Book Review of "#TheCruelPrince" by @hollyblack

Book review of “The Cruel Prince”by Holly Black

As someone who has read a a lot of fantasy and fiction books in her life, it takes a really good author to capture my attention and hold it. Holly Black has done just that with her new book, “The Cruel Prince”.

This is an intense story about a human girl named Jude, whose parents were murdered in front of her by a high Faerie and her mother’s…

Random Quote: Entitlement: The Bane of Lives

“I don’t deserve what I want but I want what I deserve.” —Sanya Safi

In today’s day and age, we find the that everyone, or mostly everyone, had a sense of entitlement. They feel as if they have the right to something because they are somewhat, some type of special reason. This leads to arrogance, egocentrism, and an annoying human. But where is this being developed? Where do we look? I already…

I am a poke

In the heart of whom I reside,

Taunting and teasing

“You’re not that good”.

  I am the twinge of desire

Of those who want

Smooth plastic skin and

Blood red lips

Mimicking those with perfect lives.

  I am the need to destroy

Any happiness, any good

Of the one that bears

What my bearer wants.

  I rot the heart from within.

I control the mind completely.

Nothing can escape my grasp

  Onc…

I linger in the hearts

Of those who desire

To grow greater than the largest oak,

Expanding their shade to the far reaches of their world;

But my small insects eat them from the inside

Impeding growth and greatness.

  Problems arise, a drought of the water

Of productivity, of success, causing

Leaves to curl inwards, not allowing for shade to spread.

The insects of doubt eat away inside

Keeping…

The image of you

Makes you swell with me.

Your waterfalls of obsidian, bark, sunlight

Might only be coal, dirt, dried wheat,

But still your head, your mind

Conjures a complete image of perfection

Of superiority, of beauty,

Of me.

  With me holding your hand, you harm,

Voicing imperfection of him, her, and they,

Cutting slowly away at others

For fear of being cut away first.

  Honesty, for me,…
