Death of A God

A prose/poem. Take from it what you will.
--

Time passes as flowers wilt,
But you ambition is strong as ever.
But at what cost?
Must the white road be drenched in
Your dead innocence to satisfy your lust for power?
The comfort of you childhood is spat on,
Is lost and forgotten by you.
You killed you family and yourself.
For what purpose? How many must die
Before you realise nothing will change?
You will rot in the ground with your ancestors
As everybody lives on as they did,
With the large looming shadow of death
Shrouding their pale forms.
Your passion,
Your ambition,
Your power,
Change
Nothing.

Film Editing

Sorry if this non-political, non-religious, non-rant is not your cup of tea, but I  feel like I need to write more, and believe it or not I don't have that much hatred for my fellow man as my previous posts may suggest.

So today I will be editing a short film in German. Our teacher signed up us for a competition; an "es war einmal..." (German equivalent of "once upon a time") theme. I have yet to see the footage, but based on what people on facebook have been saying, it should be interesting... Very interesting indeed *strokes metaphorical beard*.



It stars animals... Yeah.

Age doesn't matter

I may be 18 years of age but that does not mean I know what “skuxx is.” Or the cultural significance of “nek minnit.”

 

I go to school and I plan on actually finish it. This does not mean I am “squandering” my youth. You may have made bad choices and thus could not hang out with your friends. However, this does not mean that I wish to go clubbing with mine, or more precisely with one of my friends and her friends that I do not know. I enjoy going to school.

Now, why would I enjoy going to school instead of having a social life? Because going to school, and being among my friends who share dreams of going and doing what we love, fills me with hope that not everyone my age wishes to squander their youths drinking and partying. That even though I may not do any extra curricular activities, that I will end up better than you, and I won’t have to rely on others to support my pointless lifestyle.

In life one must choose: social life, or successful life. The social life means popularity and apparently now it means becoming famous. However the path of success allows one to travel the paths of some of the greatest people who ever existed: Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, Leonardo de Vinci, Plato, Just to name a very small few. You would have a chance at changing the world, or at least your chosen field. You will not have to live with the thought that you are the plague of modern society, walking the putrid path of those like Snooki, Paris Hilton and some other names of people I don’t know.

I am an introvert and happily so. I am not soft just because I don’t want to go clubbing and/or drinking, so don’t tell me to “harden the f**k up.”

You are not my superiors. You are simply SLAVES to this materialistic world in which we exist.

"You are pitiful isolated individuals; you are bankrupts; your role is played out. Go where you belong from now on / into the dustbin of history!" (Leon Trotsky).

I may be 18, but I am NOT a teenager.
