Contest: Light A Pensee.
Sponsor: Nette Onclaud
Until needed or called upon, she sits.
Always, like a friend, she waits for you.
Emitting a most precious light;
Glowing and eliminating fright;
Erasing darkness on stormy nights.
The power grid is down, out, and off.
But carrying the weight of power
Is a simple candlelight.
Needing niether battery
Nor electricity. Strick a match,
And away she goes.
She gives a little heat,
But transmits lots of light.
She's movable and dependable.
Ready, set, aim, fire
Destruction will follow
With tools of fury, becoming a deadly weapon
Piercing the advocate of havoc
Born from anger, born from battle, no more compassion
Ultimate soldier, Ultimate killer, leads a trail of mayham
Strick down enemies, compressing are sorrow
Menaces beckoning, strength in protection
Leading devastation, the brotherhood forever
On the battle, on the frontline, at the edge of death
Commitment means casting are lives away
Hearing the sound of atomic weaponry
Voices of the dying trying to resist the end
Men with the mission of extermination
No flesh shall be spared, create a living hell
Why do we do it, blood and machinery falling from the sky
Bullets raining down on skulls
Piles of bodies reaching heaven
I loving licking the enemies blood from my fingers
Victory waltz on their bodies
Scars, clouded eyes, sheer madness
No peace, no tranquility, no reconciliation
Dogs bearing their fangs bringing despair and disturbance
Lives become worthless under law and order
Utterly absurd, fruitless lives can't bloom
Offering obedience, offering your soul
Raiding for a triumphant
The brotherhood forever
Answers!
You know Yah and s it for me to feel this way
Today
I felt some type of way
I don't want to mess things up
I never asked you to pass this cup
All I ask is for you to help me to press on
Moving on to the next chapter
In my life
How long
What must I do
To be patient with this
A kiss I miss
On the sensual sensation of my lips
What do I say today
It seems so strick
I see you love me of course
Is it really dangerously in love
Matters drops on the floor
More information my diary is filling up
I never asked why
Never to pass my cup!
By the harbor watch for the boat
Loaded with goods but still it's afloat
No ship appears in sight
What will be US's plight
Now that 'pon China made goods dote
I heard on GPBS that China's head leader said that they were going to have to shut down manufacturing(for a period of time) because of the pollution of the air was so bad..Manufacturers went over there, to Mexico, Thailand, etc. because the rules about pollution were so strick over here now China is in the same boat as we were in a few years back..
She left us here
Granny worked washing dishes all day long.
After work she walked home while singing a song.
Our granny was always strick but never mean.
We had our chores but our mouths were clean.
We weren't allowed to cuss or tell any lies.
Granny was strick so we didn't even try.
We washed our hands and prayed at every meal.
Cause our Lord and granny had made a deal.
Granny loved to play games and read us a book.
We loved to visit her she was our favorite cook.
No matter how long she's gone I'll always remember
her long silver hair
and she taught us love and taught us to share.
She was the greatest to us you see.
My brothers,sisters and me.

My tears fall for many reasons,
Recently they have fallen over a broken heart,
Over a hate turned to a love,
Over a boy who gave me fake love,
Over a parent who is too strick,
Over a friend too honest,
Over a boy crushing on me,
Over life being a giant circle,
Over my heart beats stopping,
Over so much drama that i cant handle it.
My tears fall for many reasons.
