Skeleton Thoughts

A short-poem

oh to the life

of a man

whom found

peace

one with the spark

of the light

deep from

self

low from the earth

bed of rest

green-eyed

stilled

hushed by our end

time must go

far gone

lost

man goes to earth

man turns to

flesh-bone

done

we have met the

end of time

lives too

short

as he the snake

on a spoke

wheel ‘cross

sleep

wake from your dreams

hold no tricks

play no

games

be here right now

breathe eat date

sleep late

love…

warm is the air

of life that

plays a

tune

breathe it in deep

hold it in

your lungs

strong

dance for the days

gifts are these

too soon

gone

there comes a night

we stop in

at the

morgue

box in a hole

big mound of

damp cold

earth

eternity.

awaiting.

hopeful.

eyes.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
