What you Really Are
Heather's Blog

I know,

What you did.

Tormentor raging underneath,

Your duplicitous hero shell.

Saved her just to own her fears,

Went deep to pull it out,

Only to gift blows and glare,

She coughs black, you cackle.

Laughter, as she cringes.


I see you.

Your demonic deviltry as she,

Not the same she...

Dies, or is dying.

You lie in wait to collect and she...

Lies not remembering,

Who you really are.


I remember.

You told her,

Shh, you said.

Not the same her,

Or, the same she.

Fingers spread like spider legs,

Creeping where they should never go.

Tell not a soul, but...


I told you,

You'd abandon her.

Not the same her,

Or, the same she,

Or, the one before.

Tears for a father she'd never know.

Fissures and savage cracks of pain,

Watching it fester and spill over.


I watched you,

As you destroyed them,

The same shes and hers of our family.

One knows, one sees,

While one loathes to remember,

And the other told you,

That you decay the soul,

You overflow the eyes,

You decimate and lay a pile in ruin.


I know you've hurt.

I saw you take.

I remember you defiled.

I told you, you'd leave.

I watched you ruin.

And, I command you...STOP!


Because I know what you really are...

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
