Poetry On Odyssey: Creatures

A group of creatures caught in a misdemeanor.

I still remember that one day

That was nearing the end of eighth grade.

A happy moment for all of us

Until the truth came upon us.


I was enjoying myself until someone

Got my attention and told me to come.

She was sitting with another

Who was very familiar.


There we were sitting in the bleachers

Not knowing of the other creatures.

My friend had asked who are you going with?

I responded "no one," and I thought that was it.


But I noticed something about her

She looked troubled and started to blunder.

She asked if I knew anything about the other creatures.

I said "no," after all, what is there to wonder?


And at that moment I figured it out,

As their attempt to hide was feeble.

The horrible truth came out of her mouth,

The other creatures had done evil.


Hatred swooped upon me and I knew they had shunted.

But that's not all.

They had been confronted,

And were stumbling to their fall.


The other with us had later joined the other side,

And she made a terrible mistake.

One more of us who had joined us with pride,

Led herself into that dangerous lake.


So now it was two lost fools finding their way to the creatures.

Who had gathered together,

To go out and about,

Hunting for another.


While the two wisest of us were angels,

And we discovered many new experiences,

On our trip together,

Isolated from the creatures.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.

I just know that the idea of releasing vault tracks came out of the moment Taylor remembered she wrote 'Is It Over Now?'

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition
Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."
