Jealousy is overated

Shout out to "The Devastation Diaries" i'm jealous of you.

So at first i was thinking of my favorite poems and poems that have influenced me . poems that i just think sound cool, or make me feel something. and then i thought who better to be jealous of then someone elses work that is my age but that i think surpasses me in talent my a solid mile... and then i remebered a blog. your blog.

 " Overture to Blog in B Flat"

Ah i wish i had your talent!

"This isn't what you think.

This isn't about getting to heaven. It was never about getting to heaven. This is about why I can't sleep at night." it kills me how simple but clever this is and i would never think of it. but i feel like you don't think you just write and that is something i want.
 
 
"..But I want you to know something about me: I'm invincible. I'm also breakable. I'm passive aggressive and ungrateful and blasphemous. One day I woke up in the morning and the whole solar system had fallen at my feet..."
 
i love that your thoughts are all over the place but perfect at the same time
"one day i woke up in the morning and the whole solar system had fallen at my feet..." I love that you make me believe you.
 
"I won the sun in the lottery but I didn't want it because nothing is ever good enough for me..."
 
Be prepared for me, but don't leave me.

"Because if I go to Hell for this blog, I'm taking you with me."
 
some people may argue (or not really care) that a blog post is not poetic but i disagree and aside from the fact that you make me feel bad about my own writing i am jealous of whatever him/her/it that wrote this... if only i could be more.like.you.

  1. I know, right? Maybe we should just quit and open up a bakery. I feel like I could make the best cookies in the world if I put my mind to it.

    But doesn't this kind of writing make you WANT to be a better writer? And don't you WANT to work harder to see if you can write something this good?

  2. For real though. but i mean if all else fails just go to the bakery and buy the best cookies and eat them all while reflecting on what a bad writer you are (sounds like a good plan to me!)

    But really i hope that someday i will be this good!
    ah. he/she.incredible.
