Living Life.
What does it mean?
Theories are created and destroyed as life
Goes on.
Staying content, and happy and driven by success and reward

Living Life.
What does it mean?
Kisses are shared under pale moonlight as life
Goes on.
The maroon of the cold, glistening with loving bliss

Living Life.
What does it mean?
Promises are made and silence is broken as life
Goes on.
Friends are weaved like baskets, never to be broken

Living Life.
What does it mean?
Following your passions, and echoing your dreams? As life
Goes on.
As elegant dancers and inspirational creators awaken

Living Life.
What does it mean?

As life
Goes on.
So. i've always been a fan of Robin Williams, but i haven't actually watched toooo many of his movies. To cut a long story short I just finished watching Dead Poet Society. 

It's a movie that. Well its cheerful, and its sad, but in the end what Mr. Keating/Robin Williams taught, made an impression on me. Not necessarily about poetry, as thats not what poetry, or he was about. About life.
Seize the day and make life how you want it.

This poem is a question, directed at you. Does the later make you feel life? Friends? Romance? Success? And if not, thats what that last line is for. Because life is different for everyone.

Carpe Diem, Seize the day

My fellow deviants.

Life offers us many opportunities. We need courage and ambition to seize the moment. If we fail in our request we are left with the dying embers of failure and defeat. Excellent work.
