Except, you know, for when he wasn't.
But it was difficult to ever catch him at his lowest points. He was expected to be an energetic, somewhat annoying, insistent redhead with the motivation of a wrecking ball. Therefore, there were few times when he did have to push down the little walls and shelters and find small cracks in the brick in order to breathe, and be a real person, with emotions running the ga

Bethany looked astonished. "But Rick, it's been seven months since we got the news that you were killed in the war! And besides, my favorite Pepsi product is Gatorade, which offers unique fruity flavors, each one bursting with a surge of electrolytes that'll put any athlete back in the game!"

Ode to the Ski Mask Ski mask, ski mask. Lovely, lovely ski mask.Ode to the Ski Mask3 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Commit a crime and skip the time,
Because nobody saw your face!
Ski mask, ski mask. Darling, darling ski mask.
Made of wool, yet made with love,
Protects your skin from mace!
So won't you buy a ski mask,
(They really are quite fitting.)
And burglarize the house you'd like,
It sure beats baby-sitting!

But not for too long, and that was the trick.
We met in twelfth grade and within months he'd moved
Went on with my life, and made light of the news.
We had been close friends, but that was long past
I'd forgotten him, and forgotten him fast.
But to my surprise, in my eighty-first year
In my rusted white mailbox, a letter appeared.
When I had arrived in my somber attire,
Each seat was taken, the chapel entire.
I sat near a family whose children were sleeping,
Whose parents could finally tend to their weeping.
I let myself settle, and on Nick's behalf,
From deep in my belly came a hearty la

You told me you would buy me a prom dress
I said alright, but only if it were green
You took me to the mall
I picked out a pink dress
You asked me "¿Usted iría a la danza conmigo?"

No one can cry for your injustices.
Just like you can't cry.

Despite your hearts that sparkle.
Without emotions...
You are no better off.
To be blindly murdered for the life you carry.
For another person's deceptive greed.
Yet, the one out of all the Jumi that can change all of this.
Is missing, Lost within the Sea of Dreams.
Their number has dwindled down to near zero.
But one person has stepped up.
An outsider,
And helped the remaining ones.

And yet can keep them apart.
You are everything between people,
And families are nothing without you.
You and your supposed uniqueness.

Now I see you every day.
Your name used everywhere,
You've become the talk of the town,
And yet you used to be so shy,
And creep up only now and again.
You sit between two couples,
As they sit in the back,
Whispering to each other,
Using your name,
Your four lettered name.
You and your lovely
little name.
But who are you,
Really?
Are you the imagination,
An object,

They say will make me well,
A taste that I've long known,
Will turn good days into hell,
Perhaps they fix the symptoms,
But never the disease,
Yet alternatives are lacking,
I accept with some unease,
Sometimes one can't help wonder,
Are their intentions really pure?
Is it more profitable to treat,
Or impossible to cure?
