I wrote this poem just now. Had a stroke of inspiration and couldn't help myself. I think I'm the next Walt Whitman. 

the trees are...
green like my sweater
yellow like my grandpa's teeth
orange like a burning house
pink like the eyes of every kid in the pool
red like your blood
brown like poop
that's right
poop

Pretty good, huh? I'm diggin the free verse style right now. You know what else should be free? Coffee.

Speaking of free, Thanksgiving is tomorrow. Happy Thanksgiving, all. This is a short [incomplete] list of stuff I'm thankful for (in order of increasing textual length using the blog input font):

life
God
food
blogs
piano
music
family
shelter
school
friends
Nutella
literacy
Chowon
the Bible
and more!
computers
notebooks
logic/reason
Speer Chapel
feelings/emotions
beauty(in general)
Strong Bad's Time Machine

Hope you all have a great weekend. Feel free to let me know what you're thankful for. If your list is as long as mine, you can bet I won't be reading/listening for most of it.

"We are getting gas; we're giving spare change to the homeless; we are watching television; we are not watching the signs."
