"I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" by Maya Angelou

The free bird leaps on the back of the win and floats downstream till the current ends and dips his wings in the orange sun rays and dares to claim the sky. But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage can seldom see through his bars of rage his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing. The caged bird sings with fearful trill of the things unknown but longed for still and is tune is heard on the distant hillfor the caged bird sings of freedom The free bird thinks of another breeze an the trade winds soft through the sighing trees and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own. But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom.

Do dreams tell something about the future? I always wonder about this, and now, I have a more profound wonder of this. On July 9th, I wrote that I had a dream where half of my head is shaved, and I now have my head shaved. So, did I predict that this would happen?
I should start cataloging my dreams more often, looking for events that have to do with them.

No holding back now.

Today I have decided that because this is my blog, and I want to be selfish with it, then I am not going to hold back on anything that I want to write. This is SamEatSam uncensored form now on. I mean, it's not like anybody actually reads this! And with that new beginning, here's the latest photo taken of me by a fellow writer, Adan Vicario.

Teenagers.

Being the new girl, it's never an easy thing. People come say hi, they ask for your name and pretty much everything else about you. I've moved schools every year, so I would know when I tell you that it's a bittersweet experience.
All the boys want you and all the girls stare, there may be both love and jealousy in the air. It keeps getting better with all of the affection, and seems quite perfect with all of the attention. you will always be a favourite, especially if you're pretty, and on all of the other girls you'll seem to take pity. You'll morph into the popular one, and it takes about a year to have all that won.
First day of school, still at the same place, everybody knows you... until they see a new face. The new girl walks into the room, bright-eyed, and fresh-faced, she's the skinny type, tall, blonde, and great taste. All eyes fall on her, she looks like a beauty. I witness all jaws drop, how could this be happening to me?
The end has come.

Long nights wind and twist upward into fulfilling dreams.

But like everything in this

dimension,

there is always an end.

At the climax of those long nights,

flowers may be planted, but likewise,

flowers may be crushed.

With every risky venture there can never be

an expected outcome, but

I promise you dear,

the outcome is the silhouetted

truth,

and what becomes of it, will reflect

om your relationship with this

dimension.

Don't fret, a rainbow will cast glory soon.

Madrugadas.

Lucid nights seem to carry me on.

Unlocked doors

and

Street lights led you in.

Stairs leading to

Our fate

Were the anticipators of those

Lovely evenings,

And my bed is where

The most magical of events

Inhaled rose scented stories.

Two hearts beating near.

Two bodies making art, painting a mural.

Two voices singing in

The universal choir,

Two sounds fulfill the air, music to my ears.

This forbidden love was too big

or the both of us,

Music soon morfed to static

Once we turned the dial forward,

And there was no more room for

Trust.

What's new.

It's been some time since I've posted anything here, once again because of the difficulty to get access of the internet. We didn't get any internet into this house that we've recently moved into until yesterday, so there is a lot of catching up to do!

On Monday I made probably the biggest impulsive act that I have ever had. I was at my boyfriends tattoo studio, and his friend's girlfriend was there too, so we started talking about everything and anything. Then she started telling about the school that she goes to which is about 5 blocks away from the studio. She began to tell me all these marvelous things about it and how it is an arts school and everyone can choose the artistic career they chose once they enter 3rd semester (which in the United States is Junior year in high school). I was barely staring 3rd semester at another school, but there was no way that I was going to miss the opportunity of signing myself up at this new school.

So what I did was call my parents to ask if I could switch, and naturally, they said, "Hell no," but that wasn't going to stop me from chasing my dreams. I went to the school anyways to sign myself up, and one thing that I love about Mexico is that we don't need a signature from our parents to enroll in high school! I signed up, and handed them the starting fee, which was money that I was saving up for my next tattoo. They told me that I start the next day, which was Tuesday, and I accepted.

Well, my parents were furious, but they got over it now, and I'm going to the school of my choice to pursue my goal. (:

The message is: never let anyone or anything stand in your way of doing what you think is right, and if an opportunity stands before you, seize it because you may never see it again.
