My head spins.... <br /><br />More on that later... for now-here is a poem.<br /><br /><br />sunlight dappled lawn of splintered logic<br />covers thirsty roots, leeches ideas<br />and grows thick over the remant<br />of autumn's certainty<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2442489769815278125-8211916435954253394?l=onshelvinshill.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>crystalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16503900602722960838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442489769815278125.post-85108279368797309882007-05-25T12:28:00.000-07:002007-05-25T12:37:16.990-07:00How many of you have tried to blog a number of times and failed? Sit at the computer reading other blogs and wondering if you will ever come up with a theme or purpose to your own blog? <br /><br />That's me. i don't even have a description for my blog. I can't decide exactly what to write on. I am cloder now then I was, but I still am unsure. I have a thought though: Horatio Cane's sunglasses on CSI:Miami. They are incredibly symbolic of a number of structures in the show. Then there is the way that lighting is used in various movies. The halo effect for example, is used in a number of interesting ways in Spiderman 3... <br /><br />It all sounds literary doesn't it? It might help to know that i am an English Major finishing an undergrad degree, desiring to pursue a Masters. I may decide to go to media studies.... <br /><br />Regardless, I have posted something! And for now that will have to do!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2442489769815278125-8510827936879730988?l=onshelvinshill.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>crystalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16503900602722960838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442489769815278125.post-88045619414708983022007-05-02T10:23:00.000-07:002007-05-02T10:29:25.812-07:00I'd say, "up and running", but feels like I am still half asleep!<br /><br />Life is going on, very quickly too!!!! I am just starting spring sessions, am involved in setting up a creative arts academy, and am trying to clean my house! There must be a poem somewhere that covers this...<br /><br /><br /><br />................................................<br /><br />By the side of the road, in the right<br />lane of traffic, lies<br />the wrong edge of<br /> soul.<br />Rubber faces air, not pavement,<br />and grasps limply as the gravel<br />on the edge of wilderness.<br />Black patent leather, size eleven<br />with black laces, it leaves no print<br />on the passing vehicles.<br />It just sits. <br /> Waiting.<br /> For a matching sole.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2442489769815278125-8804561941470898302?l=onshelvinshill.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>crystalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16503900602722960838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442489769815278125.post-12444769030114937802007-04-14T22:52:00.000-07:002007-04-14T22:55:02.672-07:00I have been told I need to blog...
