Days like this makes me hate my job
Just think I could still be sound asleep
But when the order comes from God
The lost souls I shall go out and reap
Orders lead me to the state of New York
Some quiet, little town deep in the Catskills
Found the lost soul, who belongs to a jerk
A twenty-five year old whose name is Will
Will claims that he led such a hard life
No love from his parents lead to his doom
So late Friday night with a butcher’s knife
He ended his “suffering” in the dining room
I just look up at the beautiful morning sky
As he tells the long tale of his “tragedy”
I just smile and listen to his boldfaced lies
One of his greatest flaws was a lack of honesty
The main bloody reason he went and slit his wrist
Was he got horribly rejected by such a lovely girl
She fell in love with a guy that was named Chris
After that, Will hated everything about the world
I remove my black hood off of my skeletal face
Look at the ground to gather my thoughts first
My other task is to show him the awful disgrace
All of the people he hurt back in the living world
“Such a perfectly good waste of a beautiful sunny day
Just think I could be spending my time at the beach
‘No one you knew gave a shit about you at all’, you say
Look at all those mourning people beneath that beech”
He looks at me and just falls silent for a moment
He just looks at the gathering mass at his grave
“Look how much your life to these people truly meant
Think how much love and happiness that they gave
Instead, you got all emotion over being rejected by her
Not even thinking that this is more to life than sex
This is so much out there to do in this wide world
You took the easy way out by having an early death”
I fall silent for a while and let my words sink in
Hoping the words of Death will affect his views
Then again, he will be burning in Hell for his sin
And I know there is absolutely nothing I can do
That is the price he will pay with his damned soul
Suicide is a one way to ticket to eternity in Hell
This agreement between them is centuries old
She made this pact with him and it works quite well
“So will I being going to Heaven and live amongst the angels?”
Will asks me while we quietly walk towards his grave
“You should know the rules concerning suicide and Hell
Being a Catholic, you know your soul cannot be saved”
He looks at me and his face becomes pale white
He knows where his damned soul is heading now
He sadly knows in his heart that I am totally right
Satan is going to barbeque his soul like a fat cow
“Please, Death, there is something you can do to save me
There has to someone in Heaven that you can talk to”
“You have sinned and must pay the price for your deed
My hands are tied on this matter, nothing I can do
My job is to send souls to their final resting place
Souls that are unsure whether to go up or down
So I have meet them so they can represent their case
The life that they lead before being put into the ground
You made your defense and they have made a decision
You throw your life away and your fate has been sealed
The judgment was issued as soon as you made that incision
It’s too late to make a plea to her and try to make a deal
She is angry that her children never heed her words at all
She gave everyone free will and what do they do with it
They give up on her wisdom and decide to take the fall
Now, I must bid farewell and send you to the fiery pit”
With those words, flames shoot out of the ground
I point my hand towards it and bid him farewell
“Always remember these words: When you truly get down
The shortest path to happiness only leads your soul to hell
Suicide is never the solution when dealing with your problems
The real solution is to fight your way out of depression’s pit
True happiness can be always amongst family and friends
Just let them in your life and tell them why you feel shit”
With that, his soul walks forward and enters the flames
He has accepted he has brought pain to family and friends
Now his soul will be forever weighed down by the shame
That his life was just beginning, not coming to an end
As he vanishes, I head back to my home in the sky
My job here was done and I have more souls waiting
Always remember this before you think you need to die
Good things will always come if the necessary risk is taken
My imagination is my pen
My decisions are chapters
In the great novel called life
However, life is truly not a book
It is a long and enduring journey
That begins from the moment of birth
And ends when we refuse to carry on
What happens on this mysterious journey
Is totally up to you, so choose wisely
For life doesn't make you who you are
You make life what you want it to be

"The Cereal Chronicle" Part 2
I woke up sore on a bed made out of
Shredded Mini Wheats and a pillow made out of Grape Nuts. I pulled myself off
the bed, and try to move when I felt something stopping me. I looked down, and
found my ankle chained with a chain made out of Cheerios that is buried deep
inside a wall made out of Corn Flakes. I began to think this is their prison
when I hear someone moaning, "Sugar! Sugar! My soul for a spoon of
sugar!"
I tried to look out the door, but I
couldn't reach it. I sat back down on the bed and sighed. The King imprisoned
me, even though I was told I'm here to save his kingdom. I wonder what happened
when I was knocked out by The Trix Rabbit. I went from being their savior to being
a prisoner. I had to find a way to escape from here before I end up dying down
here in this hellish room of adult cereals.
As I sat there, I felt something
snapped inside me. I let out a horrifying scream as my entire body began
shaking. The bed snapped beneath me, and I landed on the floor. I looked down,
and saw my skin melting into black feathers. My toes began growing large talons
as they slowly turned into yellow-scaled bird's feet, causing the chains to
snap. My scream turned into what sounded like a rooster crowing.
I pulled myself off the floor, and
ran over to the window. I looked in awe as there's a giant beak in front of my
eyes. I glanced out the window and see the sun is rising. I crowed again,
causing someone to holler out, "It's back! The Rooster Lord has
returned!"
I tried to turn around, but my head
hit the top of the roof. I crowed again, this time, I bust through the roof,
causing the prison cell to collapse around me. I kept crowing as the remains of
the cell kept shrinking. Before long, I was looking over the castle wall, which
was easily a good 50 feet. I don't know what I took, or what they gave me, but
it turned me into a giant chicken.
I heard a voice shout, "It
worked! It worked! Sam's reign of terror is going down!"
I looked down and saw Lucky the
leprechaun doing an Irish jig on top of the wall. "What have you
done?" I yelled out.
"To beat Sam, we needed the
anti-cereal! Eggs!" he shouted.
I sighed as I said out loud,
"I'm a giant cock in a world made out of cereal. Can things get any
worse?"
Lucky jumped onto the back of a
Buzzbee and said, "Follow us, and we will show you how bad things
are."

Random Thoughts 10/19/13
Would it be wrong to steal a bong while wearing a thong only to break it on a gong owned by a man named Wong in the middle of downtown Hong Kong while singing some random Nirvana song?
Would it be bad to drink Jack while smoking crack despite being under attack for burning the enemy's shack and eating their children’s' snack while trying to sneak back before they steal your Cracker Jacks and your bunk mate eats your Apple Jacks during a nasty sandstorm in Iraq?
Wouldn't it be great to be stoned while cranking "Bad To The Bone" inside your brand new expensive home and you call Hugh Hefner on the phone and he says 5 bunnies can be loaned as long as you don't make their clones and you wake up your entire time zone from one loud massive groan?

"World War 3 -Confusion"
Woke up in a state of total confusion
My mind is racing madly with fear
All my nerves are tightly pulled
My body is a bomb; pull the trigger
Laying in a dark and damp room
The only light is from a hole in the ceiling
Been resting on a pile of old clothes
And a pillow made of burlap and moss
The image of a cloud over a metropolis
The only thing I can see before my eyes
I close them and try to recall anything
I just lie there and can’t recall a fucking thing
My name, where I live, not a God damned thing
I raise my hands to my head and begin to scream
My arms are not human but are steel and copper
I get up with a metallic creak and walk over to the light
What I saw makes my mind go fucking numb
I was no longer a man but a damn machine
They made me into a thing without a soul
My entire body replaced with cybernetic parts
The only thing still original, I hope, is my brain
Yet my brain is useless since I can’t recall jack shit
I have to get out of this God forsaken room right now
I have to learn what in the hell has happened to me
I walk over to the door and break it with a single punch
As I walk out, a single guard points a M-16 in my face
“Where in the hell do you think you’re going?”he demands
I grab his gun and bend the barrel downwards
I reach out and lift him up by the throat off the floor
“I have one question.” I demand. “What year is it now?”
“The year is roughly 2078. Seventy-three years since the Holocaust.
We found you a year ago in a cryogenics lab outside the Territory of York.”
“Territory Of York? Cryogenics lab? What the fuck are you talking about?”
“We found your body frozen in the lab in the remains of New York City.
The Territory Of York is what the ruling clan calls the New York City area.”
I let him go and fall to the floor, my mind confused as hell
I been out for almost a decade, frozen in a damn freezer
Did I go into that freezer as a man or a damn machine?
Shit, why can’t I recall a single fucking memory at all!
Is my mind still frozen after all those damn years or what?
Which makes me wonder is if I was ever a human at all?
I need answers, but I don’t know where to seek them
The guard walks over to me cautiously and stands next to me
Pistol drawn on me, yet fear is burning brightly in his eyes
I look at him,“Look I ain’t going to kill ya, okay? Just got disorientated.
Can you tell me one thing to ease my trouble mind, please, I beg you!”
He keeps the pistol pointed at my right temple despite my plea
He is still sacred shitless from me bending the barrel of his M-16
Ironically, I the one scared to death for I have no fucking clue who I am
Yet he’s acting all brave with a gun pointed at my head, like I care
I don’t have a life anyways, I’m a damn machine created by man
My life is to serve my heartless creators like a good slave should
Rather just have this guard put a slug into my head and end it
There has to be someone who knows me in this wretched place
Or at least give me a clue to shed some light on who the fuck I am
“Go ahead, put a damn slug into my head and end it my fucking pathetic life
I’ll just die a useless robot that failed to serve his master’s request anyway.”
“Actually, you have no master and aren’t a robot,” an old raspy voice chirps in
I look up and see an elderly man hiding behind a white hood over his face
“Follow me and I show you the path to the answers you are seeking, my confused friend.
Hurry up though; the path is made of fine sand caught in a mighty gust of wind.
If you fail to take this first step, the clues you long for will be lost in the desert.
Follow me and learn the past that you want to recall, but you must be warned.
The path that you seek is not a clear trail; it is filled with chaos and destruction.
When you learn of your past, you might regret what you have done in the past.
Are you sure you want to know? If so, follow me so we can speak in private.”
I follow him down the hall, taking the first steps into my destiny
Whatever happens is better than not knowing the truth about me
My mind is racing madly with fear
All my nerves are tightly pulled
My body is a bomb; pull the trigger
Laying in a dark and damp room
The only light is from a hole in the ceiling
Been resting on a pile of old clothes

Blogging Vs Social Media
As today's society tries to
summarize life in 200 or less characters, I find myself rejecting this notion.
Realizing that I can't summarize my life into such a small amount, I find there
are three major reasons why I'm using this blog more and more to post my innermost
thoughts instead of social networking sites. The first reason is social sites
are fads. The second one is I don't have to censor myself as much. Finally, I
have total freedom of expression here.
Yes, I see most social network
sites as a fad. They come and go. When one becomes too big, another one rises,
and everyone moves to the new one. An example of this is Myspace. I had one,
but once Facebook took off, I deleted Myspace and strictly went Facebook. I
know there's Google+, but I don't want to maintain two sites that do the same
thing, Plus, there's been days I've been tempted to delete Facebook because to
be honest, I get bored with it.
The second is here, I find myself
not censoring my thoughts as much on here as I do on social sites. This blog is
labeled as adult content for that reason. There are some topics I will avoid,
but anything I do post here, I'm not going to tone down in fear of offending
someone. If you don't like it, either comment or go somewhere else. A blog
isn't about being popular, but a way to express your deepest dreams and ideas
for the world to share.
The third one is total freedom of
expression. I don't have to worry about character restrictions, word counts,
etc, etc. If I wanted to, I could post my entire novel on here, and it would
post. I have a Twitter, but find it annoying for I can't find myself typing out
140 characters expression how I feel some days. Facebook at time had a 420-word
limit, but not any more (Tested it today with a six page, 15000 character post
which I did delete). Then again, when you post a long topic, it shrinks it down
with the continue reading link, and most people won't read it.
I will conclude this by saying that
I find myself posting random ideas and/or stories on here more and more with
each passing day for social sites are too restrictive, and won't be around
forever like some sites. Also, I enjoy the fact that if you're reading this,
I'm not doing for some type of popularity contests. I'm posting this for I
enjoyed writing it no matter how random it seems. If you're reading this and
hate it, move on for there's no unfriending here. Some times, it's better to
think differently, and find better outlets to express yourself then worrying
about what your social sites think about it. Not everything you do in life is popular,
but all that matters is you feel like it was the right choice, and made you happy.

"Life"
In life, it's not the number of gold stars you
get, but the fact you did the best you could do, and took pride in the job you
did. You bear the scars on your body and your soul from all your hard work, but
your heart showed that all your handwork has paid off in the end. You might not
had a million dollar car or an expensive house, but what you had was yours, you
fought to earn them, and no man can take away that fact. The greatest treasure
a man should have cherished was the hardworking spirit he possessed, and never
the size of his bank account. A legacy a man leaves behind will outlast money,
and will inspire future generations.

"The Cereal Chronicle" Part 1
So, I woke up this morning floating
on a spoon raft in a pond full of Lucky Charms. I looked around, and saw Toucan
Sam in a marshmallow tree shaking in panic for Tony The Tiger was climbing up the
trunk while snarling, "Toucans taste ggreeaattt!"
Before Tony got to the branch,
Frankenberry grabbed him by the tail, and threw him into a pit of Rice Krispies
next to the pond. I almost winced when I heard a snap, crackle, and then a loud
pop that silenced the tiger's roaring.
Sam looked down at Frankenberry and
cackled,” Now that tiger won't stop my plans to rule Cerealopia!"
As he flew off, Frankenberry
stomped off into the forest following the toucan while singing, "The tiger
is dead and the bird will wear a crown upon its head!"
I paddled the spoon to the shore
where I'm greeted by The Trix Rabbit who pops out from behind a mound of Cocoa
Puffs. He told me to follow him while pointing towards a mountain made out of
Honey Combs. Considering I just witnessed a tiger be killed, I reluctantly follow
the rabbit. I figured it would be safer to follow him then find out what else
is lurking out here.
We made our way through the marshmallow
forest to a river of chocolate milk. On the other side stood The Nesquik Bunny
holding a grapefruit spoon. Next to him is Count Chocola holding a steak knife.
They both glare at me as I approached the bridge made out of Little Debbie
Nutty Bars.
"He's with me," announced
Twix as he stepped onto the bridge.
"Sure he's not one of
Sam's?" questioned Nesquik with an angry look on his face while glaring at
me.
"Yes. He was summoned here by
King Vitamin himself," replied Twix.
"He better vatch his
step," stated Count as he lowered his knife. "After vhat happened
vith Captain Crunch, I don't trust anyone."
Twix points at me and announced,”
He will lead us to victory. Lucky foretold of his summoning this last night. He
saw the signs in his magical bowl of Sugar Smacks."
My jaw dropped at this point. I was
sent to this dimension of breakfast cereals because something a leprechaun saw
in a cereal bowl. I began questioning what did I smoke last night before bed.
It's been ages since I had a hit of weed, but if I did take something last
night, I should sell it for it's some really good stuff. It also made me
question what sanity I still had because if I'm not dreaming this, and I'm
sober, I should spend some time in a padded room.
Nesquick and Count finally stepped
to the side, and motioned for me to cross. I followed Trix to a cave in Honey
Comb Mountain. He stopped as the entrance, and pulled out a sugar packet. He
frowned as he ripped it open, and pours it on my head. The last thing I remembered
before the world fading to black was him stating, "I'm sorry, but King's
orders. Until we are sure who you are, we can't have you knowing the way to the
castle."
