What is the Stantonian Association of Interesting People?

My friends, this blog is dedicated to those men and women who go out of their way to be remarkably interesting. In other words, all of those fascinating Stanton students (or, in the rarest of cases, students from other schools) can join this blog to appreciate creative writing developed by us students. I, Braden Beaudreau, the creator of this blog, will post my past, present, and future works on this website, and those who join and comment will get the same opportunities. May all of you live in happiness and peace, and never forget: being interesting is the only way to stand out from the masses.

The Stone


It starts. Momentum builds

Slowly

Then faster,

It travels, at the whim of its grooves

And its path.

Acceleration

(not constant, it’s more like erratic)

There’s no understanding its

Galloping math.

Equations are subject

To irrational moments;

In the slop-driven swarming

Of driveling minds.

The stone keeps pursuing,

Resilient and senseless,

It chips and it cracks, and

Then onward it grinds.

The sensory images

Allblendtogether

And start not to matter;

The stone is worn smooth.

Finally, the stone falls off the face of the earth.

Nobody notices.

Bliss.

  1. I like this. I feel it is a metaphor for life, its craziness and chaos bearing down upon the stone, wearing it down until its gone. Pessimistic, but i like it.

  2. I think

    "Acceleration

    (not constant, it’s more like erratic)"

    Is called jerk, and its the derivate of acceleration.
