Each Evening
the new dawn of hope falls to the dark dusk of despair
Each evening, Emily entertains ending everything.
Edge etches epidermis
Errodes, evicerates.
Ebbing emotions.
Enough. Enough.
Each event elevated
Each endless explanation
Every evil escort
Every earful.
Everything. Everyone.
Evasions, edicts
Entropy.
Everything's empty.
Endless empty evenings.
Early, everything's evergreen.
Expected elation, ecstasy.
Early, everything endures.
Everything's excellent.
Earliness ends.
Entering evening,
Each evanescent event
Erodes. Erupts.
Ephemeral earth.
Empty emotion.
Everything. Everyone.
Each evening, Emily entertains ending everything.

I'm thirty.
Damn, that hurts to type, but there it is.
Not much of note.
I suppose I should say "yet."
Makes it sound like I'm going places.

The Evolution of LGBT Portrayal in TV and Film
Happy Pride Month, all! I love Pride Month and everything that comes with it; the celebration, the festivities, the prestige. Pride Month is the ultimate beacon of positivity. Now sadly, there are a bunch of people in society who aren't really crazy about Pride Month and have their things to say against it. To those people, I'll only say this. There's a special place reserved for people who are against Pride Month. I'm too much of a gentleman to say it here, but I'll give a few hints: it rhymes with "bell," and I'm not talking about the city in Michigan.
