An Ode to my favorite President.

How your lips can murmur sweet nothings

Upon my ear

I can only hear the hope instilled

Upon me.

God, I love America.


Your insensitive word crimes

Only proves your dialect

And commitment

To this land of the free

And the economy


Your touch upon the children of America

Your impact is not unlike

The Red Scare, MK Ultra,

Japanese Internment camps,

Or even the War on Drugs

And other great accomplishments

Of this great nation


The gracious curse you bestow

Towards the children

In another country

I sure am glad

To be born freely

For I have no other choice


The justice you endow us with:

Words of love, except hatred

You will bring change

I have the patience

For this eventuality


My pity

Towards your elegant ways

Your sweet-talking phrases

Can make me forget

All of the promises you've made


The inhumane torture,

Can be a chore

So I will only focus on

Your conjecture

And policies that make me feel warm in my home


The sick people in the street

Wish they can see

The President in the light that I do.

Unpatriotic freaks

Would never storm the Capitol


You, you are the lesser of the two evils

So I will ignore all of the allegations against you

And I will dedicate my life

Towards your empowerment

For I am American


You may be the antichrist,

But I'm a good person

My vote counts towards you

And your satanic tendencies

For you are the lesser evil

But not the better good.


If history must repeat itself

Let it repeat

With you starring as Romulus

I have no care

For you will handle it graciously


Oh! Nation of love

And not of fear

My confidence is whole

As He keeps the water clean in the suburbs,

He drains the swamp for the alligators.


The equality in every state,

The cocaine shipped into every ghetto

The bare feet on the White House lawn

The bared teeth of the soldiers who fight

For the gasless stations


The warheads in your possession

Defines our intention

Of our boundless power

Of Nagasaki,

Of Hiroshima:

The desire for the world to fall like a tower.

For revenge is the key to equality and freedom.


The suppression of voices

The cries of Natives,

The tears of millions

Are swept under the White House grass

In order to insure

A more perfect Union.


You are the salvation for humanity

So, bomb the middle east

Lock those parentless kids in cages

Say those slurs

And torture those foreigners

Because I have faith in you,

And so do my neighbors.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
