《Sonnets》10. New Beginnings
Advertisement
When the snow melts, so does my despair
as I look forward to better and warmer climes
to get back outside, away from my dark lair
as summer brings out good weather and times.
New beginnings create an atmosphere of new hope
that the spring will foster peace, harmony, and love.
Praying for the best doesn't make someone a dope
as dreams and optimism is what bliss is made of.
Yet many people are always so gloomy and sad
incapable of seeing the good that is around them.
Feelings will come and go, like a terrible teen fad
know this and stop being under depression's thumb.
Happiness will come to those that truly want it
so get out of your own way, you sniveling hypocrite.

A Fragmented Mind
"Hi there. My name is Richard Maddox, but my — admittedly nonexistent — friends call me Rick. I live in a world of superheroes and villains. A world filled with magic and physics-defying powers, and in this world, I'm just an ordinary, completely average 17-year-old boy. My imaginary friends, however, are as far from average as you get. You think you're good at deluding yourself? Well, stand back, because it's time for a master to show you his craft. Welcome to my life, the life of a madman." This story was originally inspired by the 'Legion' novella series written by Brandon Sanderson. If you've read those books and liked them, it might be worth giving this a read. The same goes if you haven't read them either, I guess. (Currently re-writing earlier chapters)

Basic Skills
Dix, a man whose entire name was a bad joke, thought he’d died and gone to heaven, until reality kicked him in his name again. Sure, he would have a whole new world to explore, one full of magic and adventure, but first he would have to be tested by the gods. They promised the tests weren’t deadly, just painful. If he does well, they might even give him prizes that will make him a target amongst the population of his new world. And the tests of the gods are just the beginning. Follow along as Dix falls back on his tried and true method of making it through life, letting his subconscious do all the work while he looks for girls. It’s not like that led him to his death once before, or anything. And what do you call a life after death anyways? A man too smart for his own good, he is woefully unprepared for what’s coming his way, no matter what he thinks. Trainers, friends, even gods won’t give him enough of a head start for the things people will ask him to do. Despite the odds of survival, he’s got a job to do. Time to get to work.
