Double Poetry Board

This blog is where most of my poetry and other writing ideas can be found. This board will also hold the writings and postings of my friend Ali. She writes as well and I feel she needs to get her writing exposed to the world.

Hey what's up? I'm Justin, 21 and a senior at Seton Hall University. Majoring in Public Relations and minoring in Advertising. Hopefully getting into the Ad World when I graduate. I used to write poetry religiously, and now I write every so often. I'm constantly busy with school. I'm a soccer player, snowboarder, and used to be a track runner. This blog is the surplus of ideas that collect in my brain. I find inspiration from experiences, my family, and my friends. They all deserve all the recognition in the world. Where would I be without them?

Angst of my own...


When it comes to angst, many people don't even understand what it entails. This includes myself. But as I've learned, it has more to do with anger and depression than I thought it did.


Masquerade

In love with your words,
But you still
Have yet to remove
Your mask.
And yet I speak
To quickly.


Slandering my eyes
As I cut out the sun.
Buried beneath
This plastic.
Holes for my
Breathing, but I
Cannot filter out
My cunningness.


Elastic strapped
Behind your scalp.
And I feel mine as well.
Finally tearing off our defence,
The world throws a grenade.



---By Justin Beebe



That is one of my newer poems. So I hope it's ok. I tried a different style then I usually do, but it's still free verse. But I continure my journey to entertain you with my writing and my road to find myself.




Hobey-ho. Let's go.

i love the aspect of not truely showing who you are without your mask..what i dont like is how bluntly it ends with the grenade..it sort of like you rushed into it
