A poem inspired by a suggestion in my Creative Writing class. This is about what I consider the negative aspects of religion, its effects, and uses. Please note that I do NOT believe that religion's impact is 100% negative-it's bad points are merely the t

3. Time reviews

With a world such as ours, I believe less and less everyday in the possibility of a God. Maybe there is only time, untouched by any entity, and just eternally there.

8. Tears of Acid Rain reviews

I got something I really wanted tonight, but instead of feeling happy, all I could feel was unhinged. It made it worse when I looked at something and found criticism of myself...but in general, I'm just feeling rather down again, and with no seemingly goo

I just decided that it was finally time I left the place where I started in my role playing. It was one of the hardest decisions I have made, because a part of me really loved it there, even though I know I needed a change. Rated for language.
