VOICELESS WARRIOR by MKYoung

Voiceless Warrior

Gazing at first light, such a inexplicable vision....
This vessel of steel and arms....
Dressed in the rations in order to examine....
Results are mandatory, not shelter....
.. ..
Gazing at first light, such a momentous vision....
Blue collar scientists reveal their flesh....
They appear from this territory of paranoia....
A unanimous experiment, a voiceless warrior.....
.. ..
Gazing at first light, such a influential vision....
The apparatus ticks down to zero....
A deafening noise and radiance from the heavens ....
The sinful arrives, invisible and unforgiving....
.. ..
Gazing at first light, such a solemn vision....
The confusion now becomes extremely clear....
How can the sun rise from the west?....
The inauguration of mortality starts today....

My Day With Emi







When Valleri turned 13 a few years ago, I took her to do things that all girls love to do. Today was no exception. I picked up Emi, and off to see Sara we went. Emi had her hair done with some color weaving. it was very subtle. She has beautiful dark hair, and Sara put some golden brown highlights in it. In the sunlight it sparkles. After we finished at the hairdressers, we went to buy some special shampoo, then had lunch at Red Lobster. We enjoyed it a lot. The wait staff sang happy b'day to her. Then it was off to have a manicure and pedicure. It was her first time for that and she "loved" it. She had her toes painted a pretty blue with daisy's on her toes. They did her fingernails in a soft beige color. She felt like a princess. Then we shopped. I love to shop with Em, she knows what she likes and goes for it. When we finished at the mall, we topped off our day with ice cream. It was a very special day for me, and I enjoyed it 'a lot'.
