The Few
I walk alone. I walk alone. An urban canopy. Treetops peeking, shading the broken asphalt below. Vines that have climbed from the beginning of time. This used to be a city. A city where you could hardly see the pavement under the mass of moving feet. Now only the few walk here. And the creatures. Some good, some evil, all fighting. Fighting for the soul of this city. This one road that will take you wherever you are going. And it makes me scared to walk alone. Walk alone. I lit this city on fire with my hate and my passion. I had to get rid of those that didn't want to be there. And that's when I found these creatures. It seems that after all the people left, the true nature of this city came alive. It seems that the evil creatures are dangerous, but the good creatures are more dangerous. It's a good thing I have the few. Oh, I haven't told you about them? They are my few, my loyal companions, those that I trust. Sometimes I try to kill them. But they don't seem to go away. It's funny because I used to walk alone, even though I was surrounded by millions. And now, with only the few, I walk alone no more.

Thinking About You
Sometimes I wonder if people think about me. Like if they ever stop what they're doing and just wonder where I am or what I'm doing. There is a person I think about. When I'm in school, or at home, or whatever. And that person is you. I'm thinking about you now as a matter of fact. I'm thinking about you like, like I can't stop thinking about you. I'm thinking about you like your love is my drug, like I can't wait til the next time we hug. Like it's a dark cold winter night and you are the mug of hot chocolate that's keeping me safe and warm. I'm thinking about you like dogs think about chasing cats. I'm thinking about you like sluggers think about their favorite bat. Like black thinks about white and positive thinks about negative and night thinks about day. I'm thinking about you like it's the only thing that gets me through the day. I'm thinking about you like printers think about paper. I'm thinking about you like stones think about rolling, like young couples think about strolling. Like Peter Pan thinks about crowing. I'm think, think, thinking about you like Winnie thinks about honey. I'm thinking about you like honey, I think we shrunk ourselves but it's ok cause we're still together. I'm thinking about you like I wonder if you wonder if people think about you. And I wonder if you think that I'm the one that thinks about you. Because I do.

Direct Orders
You are given direct orders, straight from High Command, to rock out. Rock out like its nine o'clock on a Saturday, and you started rolling against the regular crowd. Rock out like you just fell of a 900 foot cliff and somehow you survived, and your friends have the video to prove it. Rock out like the rules don't apply anymore. Rock out like you can divide by zero. Rock out like you reached the end of the road, but you found out that somebody laid more pavement. Rock out like its 1969 and somebody took one small step and one giant leap... at the same time! Rock out like you took on two extra jobs just to feed your family. Rock out like you are on the road and you can smell the wild flowers. Rock out like you just got the **** out, and now you free to just rock the **** out. Rock out because you just prayed to God to take you instead of her. Rock out like you just went scuba diving for the first time, and you rediscovered the flavor lime, and you found the word with which orange rhymes. Rock out like every time you speak, you speak with alliteration and imagination. Rock out like I have a dream, and she dreamed a dream, and they were California dreamin'. Rock out like those California Gurls allllways showed up to your parties. Rock out like it snowed for the very first time this winter. Rock out when you can, not if you can, because you can. Rock out like somebody just smiled at you, and you said if somebody smiled at you, you weren't gonna jump off. Rock out like you just got a knock out, likes its Friday and you get to clock out, like the NBA isn't gonna lock out. Rock out like you just met Him. And He led you to her, which in turn led back to Him. Rock out like you get to drive a new car everyday for the rest of your life. Rock out like you get to blow things up! Rock out like today was your birthday. And so was yesterday, and the day before that. Rock out like you just met a guy with a funny name. Rock out like its hip to be square. Rock out like Death is your friend. Rock out like you just got orders, straight from High Command, to rock.... out.
