its been a while.
im in college.
im home
and i just rememberd the password to this account, so i thought i should at least say something...
I was going through the poems that i wrote in my English classes over highschool...this one was about Gatsby...i thought it was....interesting, and for some reason i connected with it at that moment:
The Valley of Ashes
Half way between in a desolate area of land
ashes take the forms of men who crumble like sand
smoke rises up, through the powdery air
ridges, hills and grotesque gardens can be found resting there.
Obscure operations and an oculist set,
sinking down to eternal blindness leaving you to forget,
The eyes of Sir Eckleburg, gigantic and blue
Watching a drawbridge, drawn up to let barges through.
Trains can stare at the dismal scene,
and all in the valley found halfway between.
hope yall are having a wonderful break!
I miss my home back at school.
