I've been writing on a list the things I wanted to do this summer. Near the top was "isolated thinking place." Ideally this would be in a nearby creek, but I still had to find a place where I would see no trails, no houses, no signs of humanity. A place I could think without interruption, and look out into somewhere peaceful. A place to write my poetry and think about the things I've seen. So today I went out to find that place...

I've been told I should be like everyone else.
I always knew it was a joke.
'Be unique, like everyone else.'
A paradoxical statement that is such a hoax.
Why should I be like everyone else?
Seeing all these sheeple is a disgrace.
I've been told things never change.
I always knew it was a lie.
Things always change.
More rules, more restrictions, more limits.
I don't know where I'll be at the end.
But thats the fun of adventure, right?
Looking out the window,
Dazed, confused...
But ultimately sad.
Where did the time go?
Why am I falling, away from my path?
I've lost sight of what is real.
Following others mindlessly for life,
Trying hard to make sense of things.
This is not the way!
I'm hurt, paralyzed with pain.
I forgot how I came to be here.
All that is known is I need a way out.
A way to live in the nightmare of Society.
So I pick up the pen and paper.
My words a flair of art and wonder!
Looking for inspiration, day in, day out.
Living my precious minutes to the fullest.
I find hardships, comedies, and mediocre lives.
By the set ideals of Society,

Parkour is not A to B. It is not about jumping over things, here and there. It is about usefulness.
"Be Strong To Be Useful." - George Herbert
Do you not see? Raymond was inspired by Herbert. David was inspired by his father, how ever little he saw him. Raymond would not let up. David had to be the best, or else he was useless. David developed these movements, vaults, wall runs, precisions, to be useful, not to get from A to B. He wanted to help others at the best of his ability.
All the videos you see, claiming to be parkour are not. They are limited to a set
~Chasing Dreams~
All traceurs dream of sometime achieving this feeling, this "flow." Not the 'Hey, look at me, I can go from a triple kong to wall flip with out stutter-stepping' flow, but a feeling of freedom, that everything in the world is right for just a fraction of a second. Most of us train for the ability to achieve that.
Me, on the other hand, want it so badly... to understand, to feel the feeling... My goals are lost in my want of finding the meaning. I want it so badly, I neglect the body that gets me there. It's unexplainable... it's like a drug, adrenaline rush. I disregard everything else just to get a fix. (Maybe that's not t
~Heart Break~
Valentine heart shaped cakes,
Each time one is cut, others breaks,
They feel it deeply,
Like a cut to the face
A Heart fracture,
like a break,
Doctors;
Minor, say they
But my heart is now gone,
shattered to pieces,
what is left:
A cold wasteland
The journey on my face,
Cuts deep here and there,
It reads like null space:
For love, I am a death chair
Do not come close
Or you will be burned,
a flaming aura of disappointment
I plead, do not come close
~There She Is~
There she is!
Looking cute,
Playing with her hair,
Unaware of my feelings.
Sometimes I worry...
Should I tell her?
There's always tomorrow...
Right?
I watch closely,
She stands quickly,
I do the same.
We both walk.
A mix of emotions
All wash away,
Until one is left:
Distress.
Everything in me,
holding its breath tight,
Waiting...
Waiting for a chance to breathe!
Almost asphyxiating...
A breath of relief!
She smiles back warmly.
Everything is okay,
Because there she is.
Went with Chinchilla to Paradise. We chilled out for awhile, then realized we could make a whole gym setup. We moved some trees around, probably bring a hatchet and find used waterbottles filled with clay for weights. Covering our tracks, we put up a natural "wall" with broken limbs. More info later.
Did a LOT of natural training this past weekend. I fell in a lot of thorn bushes. My hands, arms, and ankles are seriously cut up. Apparently, people in school REALLY noticed :P
Going out today. I also dropped my bro's camera in water. Had a lot of good video and pictures on it, hope the mem card is okay...
:|
I know no one is listening :P, but a poem is coming soon and I'm training tomorrow and the day after that too! Woohoo! MJ still hasn't replied to my asking how he is. School is almost over (10 weeks!) so I'm counting down the days till I can train all day and not come back.
Stay strong SapphyV.! ;)
