Bacon is seriously the most amazing thing ever! It really is! I ended up writing about bacon due to entering a poetry contest, and this is the awesomeness I came up with. Enjoy!
Dear greasy goodness,
Thank you for always being there for me
With your succulent strips of pig-flavored perfection
That can participate in all sorts of edible indulgences.
Your flawless curves are well-suited for anything ranging from an ice cream party for one
To a bacon burger bonanza fit for a king!
You help me triumph through those chilly nights of darkness and despair,
Those tough days at work when going home is the first thing on my mind,
And you even uplift me when I’m feeling above the clouds…
For that, you will always be thanked for your positive vibes and free spirit!
You dance in the frying pan like a dazzling fireworks display
As you sizzle and sweat your sweet aroma into the atmosphere.
You flood my taste buds with a sensational experience of rich, hearty deliciousness
That makes my mouth thirst for more!
You have tackled our culture by storm,
Turning us into a bacon-crazed nation!
You have become a world renowned sensation of feeding our guilty pleasures
Because you promote bliss and uplift our spirits when the skies are stormy,
Despite how absolutely unhealthy you are…
You are the candy of all meats that we constantly crave,
The comfort food that melts all of our hearts,
The prime example of balance in your palette when that very first crunch contacts your teeth,
And best of all,
You will never hear anyone sing the bacon meat blues!
With every ounce of love in my heart,
From the rest of the bacon universe to all you beautiful little piggies out there,
You will always be thanked for your impeccable greasy goodness!

Turbulence
Growing up is never easy, but requires you to put your all into life in order to ensure your success. This is how I feel (in spoken word poetic form) about what growing up really is and what it really means, especially because I am going through it right now. It's all about the coming of age. Enjoy!

Hey!
Get your ass up!
Snap to reality!
What were you thinking
Just going out there exploring aimlessly without an end goal in mind...
You could get into some serious trouble
Unless you know how to handle yourself...
So how did you end up there in the first place..?
The scatterbrained fiend
Started climbing up the ladder
With no idea what they were doing at all...
They were just impulsively making decisions without stopping to take a second and think...
You need a moment to think about what the decision really means
And what it really does,
Along with the impact it is going to make on yourself and others...
Don't you want to take a risk?
You can't if you say no all the time,
But if you say yes to everything like the man in the movie,
You'll end up feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders while frozen in a state of being overwhelmed...
You definitely don't want to hit that point that's for darn sure...
There's sometimes a point where you can't help it and everything comes at you all at once like the strong winds that cause turbulence on a plane...
These gusts of wind feel so strong... almost too strong to bear... I can't do it... I cant do it... I can't do this anymore this is too strong to withstand I just wanna give up... Please God help me I'm going to have a breakdown please help... Please help!
Wait a minute...
Giving up, eh?
You're better than that!
Because quitting will either put you in a loop, put you in a hole, or put you in a grave...
Because it's all about the coming of age!
So what you screw up,
Make a foolish decision... or twelve,
Or lose a bunch of your friends while consistently meeting the wrong people even more...
Until of course you wake up and realize what the heck you're doing,
Snap out of the craze,
And decide to move forward...
Progression is a decision, not a court-ordered mandate...
If you want to change the world you have to be starving for growth and for consuming the stars...
You have to crave it like how Freddie Mercury drinks the spotlight when he performs...
And of course you have to embrace it!
You can't deny, erase, or reject the coming of age...
It's like turbulence
It may be extremely shaky, unsteady, and quite unruly,
But you won't die and head towards your pending doom...
Just step outside of the little box referred to as your own little hidden world!
It's the only way to be able to own the stars
And emerge with gold encasing your world!

Six Poems Revised And Taking Requests
It's poetry contest/publishing entering season for me and some of my poems were either old or I just wanted to perfect them prior to entering them in something. With that, the following poems have been heavily (or mildly) revised in some way:
What are Words
The Quest
The Game
Douse the Despair
Mental Illness
How to be a True Friend
Enjoy!
Also, if any of you have any request or idea that you'd like me to write about, feel free to shoot me a reply down below or post on my facebook page by clicking here! I'm pretty open to doing basically anything, so hit me with your best shot!
