How Did You Meet Your Significant Other?
"Hey, Nick, I have an idea. Do you think that this is good?"
"Oh, dude. That sounds interesting. Go for it, man."
"Do you think the Pen-to-the-Paper-ians will be mad that I hosted a different challenge?" I asked.
Nick thought for a second before replying. "Although it's definitely what you're known for, I don't think they'll be mad. They'll probably be excited to see you posting a different challenge, honestly. Two challenges hosted by the one-and-only Caleb? I know I'd be excited."
"Awesome. Can you work on the promotions for it?"
"Yeah, man, that's why I'm here. Advertisement is part of my specialty," Nick replied. Flexing, he said, "But I'm also the muscle. And the looks."
"You know dang well I'm the looks, Nick."
"Sure, sure. Whatever you think, Caleb."
Change
Without change we would be loose
.
Without change we would be naked and afraid.
Without change we would be stale mate and stagnant.
Without change we would be void of unicorns and Sasquatch.
Without change we would be zero grit and our lungs full of sand.
Without change we would only eat cheese enveloped by cardboard.
Without change we would be hiding behind signs directing their paths.
Never seen as one.
Without change we would be lack of braille , no longer able to see.
Without change we would be last in line as our wheels or lack of chromosome take us there.
Without change we would be haunted by division. Separation.
Without change we would be lacking control of our bodies and mind.
Without change we would be without a future.
The end
It must have come slowly,
Seeping in from every crack,
I didn't even notice,
When it trickled down my back
It was waiting for me at the door,
As I opened it one day,
It was too late then I realised,
As Silence was here to stay
The voices in my head were quiet now,
The sounds of the world had ceased
Silence had the last word,
And I knew I was deceased.
Don’t You?
Silence is something that you feel,
when a hungry beggar is sitting in front of you,
but you have too little money with you
and you choose to have your meal.
You weren't too right though,just think, were you?
Silence is something that you hear,
when you know you have to put up a smile
just to show that you are not fragile,
but everywhere within you it's just - fear.
You then are not too strong either, just think, are you?
Silence is something that you realize,
when you want to fight for the bigger one,
but have nobody to relish the smaller one,
so you decide to have the pizza pieces alone - you were wise.
You do feel it, think again, don't you?
