I'll show you...

soft 
lips, skin, chest
so alike in every curve and dip
yet so different in essence
arching backs, trailing fingers
my delicate kisses over every inch

slow
hands, breath, eyes
so unseasoned are you
yet so practiced am I
searching touches, guiding hands
my voice faint in your ear

I’ll show you what to do

Veer Take a Picture

So my brother talked me into entering the grand prize portion of the Veer Take a Picture competition.

I was really reluctant, because I don't take failure well and I knew that in a competition this big there was a slim chance I would win. I entered anyway, worked on my entry for 2 and a half days, when I should have been doing homework, hah .  Well really it was 2 days of working on the object and a few hours with my brother taking the photo to send in. 

So here's my entry for all to see:

The box is actually cardboard with a faux finish to make it look like metal, with brads and eyelets for the rivited effect. Patinad to look aged. It's also full of copper wire to finish that capacitor look that I was going for, and then alligator clipped to an old GM fan I have to make it look as though it's part of the powering system. 

Here is a before shot of just the cardboard.




Much kudos to my brother for helping me light and photograph my little Veer Capacitor.

There were around 1000 entries for the competition.


Well Veer sure does know how to build suspense, as the announcement of the winner was due to take place today at noon, but didn't actually happen until 4 pm!

Needless to say, I didn't win. I wasn't even a runner up! Though one of my brothers entries made it to runner up, so if you've got a Veer account go vote for his (the moss one, by Justin Ross) so I can make him buy me the Kern zip up sweater with some of his site prize 
money!

The winner did this neat perspective thing to accomplish his, but I'm actually kind of bummed because he had to send a video in to explain how he did it to get the win. I think that's kind of bunk, as in a contest called "Take a Picture" the picture should really be the only explination you need. Oh well, judging is subjective and thus what I think is bunk they thought was totally cool. 


There were some other great entries, and a lot of pretty average ones. Tons of people did something with fall leaves, since ya know, it's that time of year. Someone made the Veer logo withs googly eyes! and another person did it with light bright, those werent awesome ones, but they made me smile. 


So though I enjoyed working on this, and had a great time photographing it with my brother, but stuff like this just isn't for me. I work my tail off, deal with the suspense and then to have a huge letdown is a recipe for depression in my world. In a TOTAL funk as a result of the roller coaster of this contest.

Now I'm off to go rip it up to blow off some steam.

Words the equal my brain thoughts.

So there is this poet, that I've got a major literary crush on. 

Yes a literary crush. They do exist and I've had one for a while now. Someone who can really converse with me is a tantalizing sensation to me and it's much more likely to get me in the sack than any buffed up jock that skated his way through school on good looks and running the football team, or curvy dumb blond who thinks Shakespeare is solely that guy from the Gwyneth Paltrow movie. 

I love eloquent people.

Poetry has a special soft spot, within my soft spot for eloquent people and thus my literary crush came about. His stage name is Big Poppa E and the words that come from his mouth speak my brain thoughts. 

I wanted to share a few videos from him, my favorites and a new one that makes me smile and go "exactly!"


 







The recent one that hit home with me :)





Man do those words make me squirmy! XD
