'I Am...' (It may not be fun, but it's something to do!)
« on: October 01, 2004, 03:33:48 am »
Here's a little project I took from back in...junior high? Regular High? Whatever...Just fill in the parts with the (parenthesis) with whatever they say about you or whatever...Maybe you did this in school yourself...Maybe...Or at least, something like it probably...It's just a basic "getting to know you" kind of exercise I think...

I Am

1st Stanza
I am (two special qualities about yourself)
I wonder (something you are actually curious about)
I hear (sounds you enjoy)
I see (your favorite sights)
I want (an actual desire)
I am (repeat first line)

2nd Stanza
I imagine (a place or situation other than here)
I feel (feelings you experience in your daily living)
I touch (or influence someone or something)
I worry (something that makes you sad)
I cry (something that makes you sad)
I am (repeat first line of the poem)

3rd Stanza
I understand (something you know is true)
I say (something you believe in)
I dream (something you hope for)
I try (something you really make an effort to do)
I hope (something you actually hope for)
I am (repeat first line of the poem)

Go for it...I'll do my own soon...is it just me, or does the 2nd stanza's "I touch" instruction not make much sense...do whatever you think makes sense for that one I guess...

I did something similar to this in high school. Ah, what the hell, I'm bored:


I am left handed
I am double jointed
I wonder what the future holds
I hear music
I see things working well
I want a home
I am left handed

I imagine no more countries...
I feel torn
I touch my friends
I worry about the future
I cry for the future
I am left handed

I understand what needs to be done
I say our lives are our own and no one else's
I dream that it'll all work out
I try to find balance in life
I hope things work out
I am left handed

I guess I'll do one now, as I wait for replies in the ZEAL forum...

I am Kick-Ass and Better Than You

I am kick-ass and better than you
I wonder why you even try
I hear you begging me to tell you my secret of awesomeness
I see you pained and defeated before my incredible might
I want you to know that I am kick-ass and better than you
I am kick-ass and better than you

I imagine you leaving to go somewhere far away where other people probably hate you too
I feel great, because I am
I touch the world around me (and maybe myself sometimes)
I worry that you won't realize how kick-ass and better than you I am
I cry for nothing
I am kick-ass and better than you

I understand that you suck-ass and are lesser than I
I say you suck ass and I kick-ass
I dream about kicking your stupid sucky-ass
I try to be not so cool, but it always backfires because of how super-cool I am
I hope you kill your stupid sucky-ass
I am kick-ass and better than you
