Boulevard of Broken Dreams...
I walk alone... I walk alone... Down a never ending street, there is no beginning no end to the torment of broken dreams. On either side towering structures all reflecting the dark corners of my soul, my past, my hidden failure. Between the buildings slowly drifting are clouds morphing into broken windows, failed tests, lost friends. The ground a reflective glass reflecting all that is above me, with the occasional lie passing by in the void underneath. In the distance a small glimmer of hope, approaching to find water spraying out of the ground reflecting even more of the once forgotten past, stepping through all goes dark. Nothing to see, then bursts of light come on one at a time they light up memories, torturing my mind, stabbing my conscience, haunting my thoughts, but a small glimpse of hope coming toward me, a light lighting up the void, a... train.

What good is a day...
What good is a day gone by. What good is a day that has no start or end, no thought to bend. What good is a day that has no goal, no objective, and no... Girls. What good is a day gone by with no accomplishment. What good is a day that has no fear or sadness. What good. What good is a day on which you say, "I have failed". What good is a day to which comes and goes with no purpose. What good is a day with no night, with no love, and where you put up no fight. What good is a day that you do not feel change. What good is a day where you try to make change but are shot down at every turn. What good is a day that not one person can change. What good is a day that makes no start, that makes no line on the painting of history. What good is a day that has no follow, nothing to look forward on, to give you nothing to look back on. What good is a day on which you create nothing to share the past, or tell the present, or make the future. What good is a day full of nothing. What good is a day...
Writers Note-This is the first prompt I have done myself, I don't know what to think of it so... yea... Thanks for reading and please post some comments on what you think of it.

I'm Thinking About You...
I'm thinking about you like roses think of blooming, like writing thinks of thought, like ducks think of water. I'm thinking of you like bars think of stools, like kids think of pools, like April thinks of fools. I'm thinking of you like Gilligan thinks of nothing, like Lex Luthor thinks of loathing, like Marc Jacobs thinks of clothing. I'm thinking of you like a fireman thinks of a fire on the coast of Florida minutes before a hurricane hits, like a kindergartner thinks of ritz bits, like that ritz bit thinks of the combination of its cheese and cracker. I'm thinking of you like trees think of touching the stars on a cool summers night, like I think of the sparkles in your eyes last night, Moses thinks of... a blight. I'm thinking of you like "T" thinks of "V", like Mac thinks of Book, like i thinks of Mac. I'm thinking of you like bagels think of cream cheese, like breakfast thinks bacon, eggs, and toast. I'm thinking of you like beauty thinks you, like love thinks of hearts. I'm thinking of you like Kyle Whittingham thinks of U of U, like Calvin thinks of Hobbs, like 7 thinks of UP. I'm thinking of you like the sun thinks of a rainbow just after rain, like a rose thinks of bud, like a flower thinks of your hair. I'm thinking of... You.

Direct Order To Rock Out!
Rock Out! Rock out like you won the golden globe. Rock out like it is the perfect summer day and you hit the beach on the your day off. Rock out like you got that new car you always wanted. Rock out like that stereo in your car at that street light in down town Manhattan, next to that girl you've always wanted to impress. Rock out like your little bro on that new rocking horse. Rock out like a POW at the end of WWII. Rock out like a mom that sees her son in arms at the end of war. Rock out like you just got your doctorates in perfection. Rock out like Kyle. Rock out like you just hit the perfect note on your guitar. Rock out like you just got promoted to the guy who gets to test the golf course the day before the public uses it. Rock out like you are the only one to get the perfect score on that huge final that determines and pass or fail. Rock out like you just got that new iPod. Rock out like a seagull that stole your lunch at the beach last week. Rock out as if your going to the moon. Rock out the end of the world is held back till you call it. Rock out like you got the perfect score. Rock out like your exempt from taxes. Rock out like your little sister is your maid. Rock out like your the King on stage in front of a full house. Rock out like this is the last day of school. ROCK OUT PERIOD
