i hate the doctors

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
small glance
brief touch
big talk
long walks
this isnt real
but i just want to feel
nice to talk to you
but now talkings done
we...
just another little poem
i want to take the hurt away
things fall apart, they fall apart so hard
you can’t ever put them back the way they were
like puzzle pieces for life
it takes too much time
there’s so much work
having to learn if we’re the same people we were
if you fit into the other’s life
it’s a long and important process
and can’t we just skip it?
The difficult I can do today. The impossible will take a little longer.
– Billie Holiday
i'm not who you want
i’m not who you want,
but i might be the one you need.
you don’t get to like the people you love
and you’ll never love the people you like.
if yes means no, does hello mean goodbye?
if i tried to be reasonable, would you turn me off
after keeping me on?
nothing stands between us
except ourselves
because misery loves company.
-so i wrote that. or i tried anyway.

WWBD?
what would buffy do? yeah, i made a buffy the vampire slayer reference. besides the fact that it’s actually a very socially aware show, and it has multiple metaphors for real life problems inside its ongoing mythos, it opens the question, “what do we do when we’re against problems bigger than us?” i don’t know about anyone else, but i would certainly like to have...
if you think it, you should say it.
thoughts are not meant to be kept inside. obviously, there are limits to what should be said aloud, but if you think it, you should say it. secrets are fine and dandy sometimes, but people should say what they think, concequence free. alas, the world in which we live cannot be as such. i wish there were things i could say to certain people about the way i feel about them and have there be no...

Why Are People So Weird?
I mean, mostly people are weird in a good way. Like a very good friend, she’s crazy as anything, and possibly the strangest person I know (discounting myself), but she’s awesome. It’s amazing how she just is who she is all the time. Really, it’s incredible. You should meet her one day…change your life. Anyhoo, people are weird. We think, we move, we are-but why? Why...

My First
So…my first blog. Ever. Also, like, my first anything. Not exactly the most up-to-date person, but I like myself that way. Favorite of mine, for those interested-Lewis Carroll, hence the title. I’m the little crocodile, and the world is my Nile, with many little fishes. I love all kinds of poetry, most kinds of art, and lots of kinds of music. I’m a pretty well-rounded member of...
