a poem AND The Secret Wall
Roy Thaves at 2am sitting towrds the back of a Greyhound
He sits next to an overweight lady with metal braces on both her legs, and she sits there coughing
He tries to just look out the window into the desert
where it's 5 degrees below zero
Having to move back into his uncle's house in Las Vegas
with no money, no apartment, no motorcycle, his music
collection gone, everything's been pawned
A guy behind him keeps getting up and going to the bathroom
says he's been up for days and the speed's still showing
Ray tries to stare out the window, snow covers
everything and it's 5 degrees below zero
Above him is a sea of stars unseen because of the weather
He tries not to look at his reflection in the window, and there's two guys infront of him who are quietly drinking off a bottle and he can feel that feel, feel that feel still pulling
A girl across the ilse is giving herself an ink pen tatoo
her kid sits next to her and her kid is crying
He finally gets up and walks to the
front of the bus, to the bus driver,
"Pull over!Pull over!" he yells at the bus driver
and the bus driver,
he just pulls over
He gets off the bus in his T shirt and leaves his
coat and things aboard
and the bus pulls away and he walks out into the desert
He can see the city lights in the distance
so he walks into the opposite direction
Swimming in a sea of rage that dissipates with the cold
But hours now have passed and he dosen't know
which way to go
He tries to find the highway but snow covers everything
and its 5 degrees below zero
today was eventful.. well not really. the firemen were here this morning.my house was burning. but alls good now. im eating taost and theres jam on the toast and also a little on my finger too. lol. when i was buttering my toast i was thinking about secrets. there strange things. i think theres two kinds of secrets, and im talking about real secrets here, not silly things like 'oh, i really fancy the boy who sits beside me in chemistry', proper secrets. ok, so my theory is, theres secrets that fall into group a, and then theres a group b too.
GroupA: secrets that you'd tell your best best friend, or your longterm boy/girlfriend, if he/she made you. Examples include- i had sex with my fathers friend, it was me who broke your favourite guitar and lied about it, i slapped my little cousin when she was being annoying... etc
GroupB: deep deep not necessarily dark secrets that you will never ever tell anyone as long as you live. i cant think of any examples, well i can but...you all know what i mean, i think.
but i think secrets are good. and its always great to be able tell somebody a secret, but its hard to find the right person that you can feel comfortable enough to tell. i think thats apart of loving someone, you feel like you can tell them anything. oh god im turning into opra winfrey here.
ANYWAY so my idea is that, because we all have secrets, and most of us wish we could have someone to tell who wouldnt judge us, and also because its always offloading to get rid of a secret and it would be interesting and balh deblah, we should make a... secret wall wooooooo..
*everyone thinks, "what the fu?"* this is how it works:
you write you secret out. everyone must print out their secret in, the the same font, size ect. say, 12 TNR and print on an A4 page.
the page is folded once. people than put their page in into The Box. (the box will be sealed until the time of opening)
After everyone has put their page into the box, the bow is then brought to a wall. the box is opened by two people. the two people stick (or pin or tape or poop) the pages onto the wall for everyone to see.
therefor, everyone can see the secret, you feel youve got it 'out of your system', but nobody knows whos secret is whos. wala.
ok tell me what you think..
