Polizei Act Six

The clocked winked at me. It actually winked. Why? Clocks don't wink. Then I realized that everything was blurry. It felt like the world was spinning. I had been shot...again. "Stay down." I heard someone shout. There was a flurry of automatic fire only inches from my head and I turned in time to see two black figures fall to the easrth, fountaining with blood. "Come on, we have to get out of here!" I felt myself being picked up, and it was then that I realized that I still had my pistol. Drunkenly, I fired at another pair of figures. I think one round grazed the second, but they did litttle more than duck. Still very woozy I let them have the whole clip, blasting away until the trigger went limp. I was tossed into the back of a delivery van, and the world went black as we sped away...again.

Tennessee

My spring break was a little long, or at least it felt like that. Probably was the 16 hour drive from Minnesota to Tennessee and back. On top of that, my family is slowly imploding in front of me, so that definetly didn't help my bad mood. Add onto that the fact that I was missing everyone and I didn't want to leave Minnesota and it was just a recipe for disaster. When I got back, it got better getting to see my girlfriend, and my buddies. Probably wasn't good for my homework though since I didn't get much done. :)

Lyrics

Song Title : Shake Me Like A Monkey

Artist : Dave Matthews Band

1. Why did you choose this song? Why is it important to you?
It's a very well written song, with great lyrics and a good message. It's one of the few songs on my iPod that makes me want to move or dance.

2. What is the story in the lyrics?
It's a love song, Dave Matthews is singing about his lover/wife/girlfriend. He's talking about how perfect she is.

3. What is the structure?
The song has no real structure, it goes from free-verse to AAAA in the first verse, and ABCB in the third

4. What is the emotional tone or mood?
The song is extremely up-beat, it makes you want to move.

5. What is the message or lesson?
There isn't really a lesson or message, it's more just a song about one person

6. What is the intention of this piece of music?
I think it's Dave's way of telling the world how much he loves this woman, or just a way of communicating what love is.

Shake Me Like A Monkey lyricsThe thing I like about you
Is the way you
The way that you do
The thing I like about you

God or the Devil alone
Could not have made you up
The two must have worked
As one together

So good just wanna eat you up
Nothing like the real thing
Lick your sticky fingers boy
And sing for your dinner sing

Come on pretty baby
Make me lose my mind
Everybody get together
Gonna make love shine

[Chorus]
Do you know what it is
To feel the light of love inside you
And all the darkness falls away
If you feel the way I feel
Then I believe we have the answer
I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby, love me baby
Shake me like a monkey, baby
Forever I'm yours, yours, yours
Yeah forever I am

I, I, I
Can't stop thinking 'bout you
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Why would I want to

I like my coffee
With toast and jelly
But I'd rather be licking
From your back to your belly

I, I, I
Think that I'm going to

[Chorus]

Cigarettes and coffee
Broken hearts and being lonely
Little girls and ponies
Things that go together

Yes and no
You have to choose
Romeo and Juliet
The hangman and his noose
You and me we go good together

Kiss, kiss make a wish
Hope that it comes true
I ain't waiting for the world to change
Gonna change the world for you

Come on pretty baby
Make you lose your mind
Everybody get together
Gonna make love shine

[Chorus]

Come on everybody
Make me lose my mind
Everybody get together
Gonna make love shine.

The Dishwasher

Oh NO! The cycle has started again. And they have forgotten that I am only made of plastic. No! What can I do? I have no legs, no arms. I can not run, nor jump, nor climb. I AM DOOMED!!!

Needless to say the spoon was turned into a pile of molten slag

The end

Mankind

I would invent a giant stereo that would blast wonderful music across the world, and everyone would be happy and wars would never happen again.

I once dreamed

I once dreamed,
you were in my arms.
I was bleeding,
but with you I was unharmed.
I saw you,
shining and beautiful.
I held you,
and our kisses were wonderful.
I breathed you in,
and my stone heart melted.
Your lips touched mine,
and you bet I felt it.

Lieben

I wish someone had told,
The tears I would cry
how much it would hurt,
when you said goodbye.

I wish someone would hold me,
and tellme it's alright.
And I want that someone to be you,
to get me through the night.

And you know I'm hurt,
we know it's hard,
but I know that we'll get through.

Because Alicia,
there's no one else,
I love as much as you

Out of the frying pan...

The razor edged wheels were whirling and whirring frantically not far from my feet. The wretched hand which firmly grasped me by my fragile hair slowly fed me into the monster. I felt myself being ripped into a million small pieces. It was as if I was being turned to ash in a crematorium. I felt like I was being spread around like sand shooting out of a car's tires, or like a loved ones ashes being shot into space. I was dying. Very slowly I was being dismembered and disembowled, discared and disenchanted...

BUT MY PAPER BROTHERS WILL RISE TO FIGHT EVIL SHREDDER OF PAPER. WE WILL DESROY YOU!!!!!!!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....

That assignment

I'm going to use iNetword and write a short story.

The Things We Hide (Act One)

Joe was nervous. It was his first day in a new city, with a new job. He didn’t feel right. He felt cheated, were most 19 year olds ran out of their home town? By their own parents no less? It was like the exclamation point to a constantly anti-climactic and chaotic childhood. But his Monday night feeling wouldn’t last much longer. Because leaning precariously over a cash register was a read-headed angel named Marian Bartsch. And she would change his life forever…

Mein Letze tag

I guess I would spend my last day with as many people as I could.
Of all the things I could do, that's what  should.
I'd probably drink about, and laugh with my friends.
Play guitar and pray that this wouldn't be the end.
I'd lie in bed with my girlfriend, and we would make love.
And I'd pray that God would take me in heaven above.
I tell me dad I loved him, and he always was right.
And I'd ask my mom not to cry, because she'd done alright.
I would plead I'm sorry, the people I'd hurt I knew.
Those ones that heard my selfish cries, the unlucky and the few.
I'd tell my friends I'd loved them, so that they would understand.
And I'd tell them that we'd meet again, in the promised land.
We'd talk and drink and sing about the paradise up above.
And we'd talk about God and Jesus, and their perfect love.
I'd learn as much as possibly could in one single day.
Then I pray to God that the moments, wouldn't fade away.

Villanelle

Now the beach, with blood is stained,
The lives we payed to pass,
Forever to remain.

Cities crumble, our victory not vain,
we take the fight to their home,
Forever to remain.

Soldiers for land, for their name,
as their friends fall and die,
Forever to Remain.

My life I'd give so your's be saved,
my body shot to bits,
Forever to Remain

The sounds and sights in my eyes ingraved,
machine gun fire, rifle, grenade
Forever to Remain

60 years later on the beach in name,
the speak of the trials and the men and their graves,
the pray that their lives were not wasted in vain
For thes men who died are - Forever to remain

Etheree

Scream

From Black

Music Comes

Alive awake

Lovingly painful

My dark and twisted love

I live with thee forever

My Heart cries out eternally

For you are always tender and true

The blood in my veins runs as thick as you

Poilizei (Act 5)

How ridiculous I was to think that I could've taken on those men and been alright. It was insanity. Pure sillyness. It must've looked like someone's twisted nightmare villain: clothes drenched in blood, and laughing hysterically - goofy from the pain killers. "I thought we were going to the hospital?" The man who had rescued me, whom I now knew as John wasn't laughing. Some men chased us. They got you into a ward but they came for us." I was puzzled. "How did we end up here?"
"I carried you."
"Wasn't that a little dangerous for you? They must've been armed."
"You covered me the whole way. I have to say, you're one hell of a shot."
Tires roared outside.

Someone was here.

As it unfolds

The world as it is now is a complicated place. We have overworked our consiences until now we cry at every poor country and every slum we see. It's sad how often I see commercials for animal shelters and buy-a-child-from-Africa. I hate this mentality that because a country can't take care of it's own people that we have too. It's absolutely pathetic. We have to hold everyone's hand but when we try and do the right thing, our soldiers and citizens are murdered and we are criticized for 'policing the world'. I think we should take on a policy of isolatsionism again. I mean, every time we reach out a helping hand, it's sliced off by the crooked razor of some psycho religous group or radical government. Screw it, why would help if no one will have it.
