Journal: Back to Stay -------------------------------------------Mood: Straightening things out... Journal,
It feels nice to type again in this box. I guess it feels even nicer because I have my own computer to type it on, and not a family computer. I am still working at wal-mart which is not a great place to be. I turned 21 this yr. I grew a little wiser, and lost a lot of wisdom in return.
I don't know how much poetry I will be submitting. I think about it. I don't think I have to submit that much. I have released a nice amount of emotion on this site, and I have even more to give, but I feel that I need to catch up with my comments. The only thing I hate about commenting when you wanna just comment to catch up on commenting is that everyone tries to comment on something you did, because they feel compelled to. I wish that people would read my stuff if they just looked for it or saw my name and read it other than just reading it because they felt compelled. I guess that is why i choose some of the poets on this site and stalk them. Because their sense of style and there poetry actually moves me to continue to read more of their work.
I sometimes feel this commenting buisness is just a competition with a lot of people more than it is a reading for insight. Don't get me wrong. I do think that there are people out there that read just for the enjoyment, but that doesn't mean that there aren't those who just want to have more comments then there fellow person.
But I love eliteskills. I love to come here to hear the voices of those my age, older and tobe surprised by the talent of those younger than I. i have seen so many poets come and so many go. Hopefully I will be able to still look back and reflect on their greatness. Thanks elite for the experience and the many more to come.
