An Ode to Soda
I kind of like this poetry run I’m on. It continues….I shall call this lyrical creation: An Ode to Soda A Harlot in the street. Calling me, luring the Impulsive Man to your abode. Gaseous carbon becomes encased, saturating your smooth liquid nectar in a Divine Ratio. States of matter somehow exist in harmonious relation. You seduce me. I devour you. My delight, immediate. Yet … Continue reading
Ke$ha With a Dollar Sign
Once sweet. Once innocence. Taken for granted. Once lollipop. Once tea parties with inanimate, infant companions. Easy bake. But the glitter has spilled. Thirsty eyes find their rest in unicorns, for a moment. Soon only Jagger quenches. Alcoholic toothpaste. A product; liquid plastic fills a Template. Somewhere a Ponytailed Man lights a cigar. It’s not your fault. Ke$ha with a Dollar Sign. . . … Continue reading
JT: Man Candy
Yes, I’m comfortable enough with myself to say what we’re all thinking… … Continue reading
Somebody That I Used to Know – Acapella
Love me a good acapella. And what a great angry breakup song – it must make Kelly Clarkson jealous… Do people really still use the phrase “I’m so happy I could die”? And “collect your records”? This song was clearly conceived by a ghost writer…who is 50. Nevertheless, as previously mentioned, great angry breakup tune. Apparently they also do house parties. See? … Continue reading

Cleaning House
“Clutter is a form of visual distraction, and everything in our vision pulls at our attention at least a little.” – Joshua Becker, Can’t think straight? Try cleaning your desk bub! Similarly to this guy, there is a huge difference in my ability to think straight when the room, desk, table, etc. is clean. Before clean desk, mind = steam filled, foggy jungle with monkeys … Continue reading
Uninhibited
Old people can be so uninhibited… At some point, you just don’t care anymore. This guy feels no pressure to conform to societal norms. He’s not worried about what anyone else is thinking. He simply “is.” What a wonderful place to be. He could also be senile or have a degenerative brain disease. Either way, his uninhibited state must be nice. Compare to the two … Continue reading
Discipline
Discipline spills over. If you are disciplined in one area of life it’s easier to be disciplined in another. Like if I get up and run every day at 8 AM sharp, it’s easier for me to be consistent in my prayer life, or in my academics, or in my eating habits, or in flossing my crazy teeth. But if you slip in one area, … Continue reading
Bananas and Peanut Butter
So I am realizing that a lot of my Quick Picnics are about food. I guess that’s what I think about so so be it! Food is essential to the survival of our species so I guess I don’t feel too bad…blame it on Darwinian tendencies. But anyways, I just found out about Bananas and Peanut Butter. A little background: I have a sordid … Continue reading
