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.

Gotta Go Fast

I lost you for the same reason
I lost my balance on that fucking mountain

Depression and anxiety
Free the body in turns
What was once adrenaline
       Over rocks and stone
       Over twigs and roots
       Over memes and phrases
Become adrenaline

Adrenaline
Adrenaline

Beautiful air
A lake and river passing
Bursting through the cloud

Adrenaline
Adrenaline

A little physical lesson:
you need the optimal speed to turn
Too fast
              the mountain has you
Too slow
              the drop pops you

When you fall the first time
Your hands get scraped
Blood pours out; the handle is red now
Your grip lightens
Anxiety heightens
Your grip tightens

You slow down;
Rocks rock you too fast
Stones stumble subtle
Twigs twitch terrible
Roots rock you too fast

Memes unmake memories
Phrases phase-out faintly

You slow down;
You're afraid of losing what you have
And that is when you lose it
