No. 1 for 2010

Well, it's been too long since I posted anything. This site's telling me that I haven't posted anything since New Year's Eve, so I figured now would be as good a time as ever to update it. I have been doing quite a bit of writing, drawing, and just all-around creative things lately, mainly to relax and blow off steam from my hectic 12-hours-on-campus days. Here's a taste of some product:

Thanks be to you, trusty Slingshot.
I'm just west of the Dakotas
but too east to be significant.
It's all about location.
Lead to worn-out welcomes with all the strangers.
Faces stay fresh for only a while
soon becoming too familiar.
Thanks be to you, trusty Slingshot.
I'm just west of the Dakotas
and you put me in this exact spot.
No matter what they say,
we all need constant flux.
Changes of pace, changes of scenery.
I know that's where you're going.
Thanks be to you, trusty Slingshot.
I'm just west of the Dakotas,
but too east for appreciation.

This is only the first or second draft, but I have a lot of musings and rants as songs and poems that are completely unfinished, such as this. If I do have any New Year's resolutions, they're to finish said writings...
