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 Long Way Home

An iced breeze delineates my body against the night
Ans I am a silhouette among silhouettes, moving
Shadow in a sacred stillness.
I feel calm enough to linger here
And take the long way home.

Columns splayed with dappled forms of ancient trees
Grown amongst thought. All knowing visages of an
Insurmountable strength, magnified by light.
Somehow I find a strength within
To take the long way home.

I'll wind through angular bends of lampposts as
I lift from within to remain on a length of air, suspended
Swaying through the night
I'll land wherever the unknown goes
So I'll take the long way home.

I am one among many,
But amongst the many I have won.
And I'll take the long way home.

    This reminds me of my math test.

    I especially like the last stanza. It's appropriate and clever, and well done. Great poem.
