Oh gosh this book recommendation thread is too small... must... make... bigger.
Anyways, I need books to read so hopefully posting here will encourage others to post here so I won't end up in a book deprived pit of sorrow somewhere.

Fun light read: Lockwood & Co. , a series by Jonathan Stroud
Exciting, humorous, and has a touch of adventure; and is easy to read :|

The Young Elites + Rose Society

This series is interesting. I recommend reading the first book. As for the second book, read it if you don't mind cliches and enjoy a VERY typical modern day romance/drama/action novel... Otherwise, don't.

Not sure how to properly link stuff... It keeps auto adding the code for linking images which I don't want, cause then people would laugh at my entry
Here it is: [img]http://pre01.deviantart.net/18b5/th/pre/f/2017/030/d/0/untitled_drawing_by_mangepic-daxbmq1.png[~/img]
I was bored and was confused on what you wanted so...
I wrote the channel name. Cause that's what you wanted.
I added every color for contrast :|  Because obviously there's nothing more contrasting than a crap ton of colors randomly mixed together
And made a splatter background to show how nooby and lazy I am at making backgrounds
Then added orange cause why not
Then did nothing else cause I don't know what to put there.

In short, I had no homework today (I hope) and I'm bored so I did this instead.

I'd be willing to trade all my Viz (currently 46198) for the smallest value us steam gift card/code. I'm not sure what the lowest value is, so yeah...
It's also been a while since I've been on vizzed, so if this isn't enough, let me know, thanks

It would definitely have to be pokemon sapphire, it was simply one the first games I had and I loved leveling and fighting. I used to play day and night (probably why I have glasses now )

Favorite is nfl street simply because of memories. And it was one of the few games I had and knew how to use. It was either that, some nba game, some baseball game, or lord of the rings

I dont understand
Why people are posting here
This thread is for me
... you guys know that this is MY poem thread. Lol I don't know why you guys are posting your poems here... you can if you want, but kinda strange and funny

So you just post the songs here I guess. I'll start off with one, but will come back and add more
(Content hidden from non-administrators!)
Just discovered playlists! Yay!

The Light of My Life

Until death parts us, you will bring me light,
your endless great beauty is limitless
from bottom to top, and your face shines bright.
Compared to you, great beauties are a mess,
compared to you, the greatest minds are dumb.
You alone can quench my thirst for knowledge,
all other sources make my mind go numb
with boredom, which stops learning like a wedge.
Without you my life has little purpose,
devoid of motivation, without love.
Gone is my passion, now filled with curses,
my heart is empty, gone is the dove.
Without you my life is in monochrome,
my home is where you are, my lovely phone.

A sonnet for homework, had to share it again here. Be honest. There's a good chance this is you. I admit, sometimes I'm like this too! But anyways, sonnets are a pain to write... 

orignal:

Also, this MY poem/story deposit place. So, yeah, if you wanna share poetry, this might not be the best place to do it lol.
Anyways... I think I'm gonna start writing a story, and I'll probably post it here before anywhere else, so be on the lookout! Or not. It's probably going to turn out bad, or unfinished.

EDIT: Woohoo! I remembered to remove my layout!

Where the seasons take me





Let others be
peacocks
pruning their feathers
in competition with each other,
in an elaborate show
of dominance.

I'd rather be a duck,
lacking in outward appearance
but not judged by others,
able to go anywhere,
anywhere I want,
with no one
to obstruct me,
to take my photo
and frame it on a wall.


I would rather be wild and
free, going where the seasons
take me
and ignored,
then to be noticed
and put in zoos
with ever need met,
but my choices
made for me.

I'd rather be a duck,
plain and simple,
rather than
beautiful,
if it meant
I could fly
unchained.

original ^
This poem was for homework...
EDIT: Crap I forgot to get rid of layout again. ;-;

Vanelan : XD I love that solution, but I'm not sure I'd trust my parents with a cat... Or any other pets for that matter. Sometimes I wonder, 'how did I make it past the age of 4?'  lol just kidding... hopefully.

At this time in my life
I don’t know what to do,
what to do
today,
what I should’ve done
yesterday,                                                            
what I can do
tomorrow.

All of the things
I want today
I can only get tomorrow.
All of the things
I will want tomorrow
I had today.
All while regretting
the things I passed by
yesterday.

Rarely do I ever have
what I want,
often when I do
I take it for granted,
squandering it away.

This is how our world works,
unbalanced and unfair,
and with a seemingly endless
need for something else.

Learn to
enjoy
what we have now,
embrace
whatever we will have,
release
what has gone,
and appreciate
when want and have
collide.

I wrote this at midnight. Probably wasn't the best decision.

Monochrome

Poetry is
a form of art
a monochrome painting
with words instead of strokes,
a way to express
ones self.

Poetry is like an envelope
in it you put
whatever you want
to be sent
to someone else.

Poetry is about
speaking what's on
your mind,
whatever it might be.
There are no limits,
no bounds,
no rules,
except those
you set yourself.

Poetry is as important
as the air we breathe,
for it is a symbol,
a symbol of
freedom.

Poetry is as pointless
as the person writing it
wishes it to be.
With effort,
any writer,
any poem,
could change
the world.

Poetry means
everything
to some,
nothing
to others,
but affects
us all.

Poetry is
all of our
emotions,
desires,
dreams,
hopes,
aspirations,
opinions,
ideals,
and thoughts.

Poetry is anything
you want it
to be.

This one was my homework XD

Instead of creating a new thread each time, I thought of a better way of sharing my poems with Vizzed. A  giant thread where I put all my poems!
Since I want this thread to be neat and all, each post will be a new poem, and this first post is just gonna be filled with some links:
http://mangepic.deviantart.com/ 
~there's a good chance that I will upload here first, so if ya wanna see the original poem, some poems I forget to posts, or stalk me, this is where to go!

Some old poems that were uploaded on Viz but have since been closed or whatever fate inactive threads face (links to deviantart):

http://mangepic.deviantart.com/art/Breaking-News-In-a-Breaking-World-582497814
http://mangepic.deviantart.com/art/Dogs-can-t-make-bombs-581863348
http://mangepic.deviantart.com/art/Death-procrastinates-576764269
http://mangepic.deviantart.com/art/Terror-575854555

Anyways... yeah. I might sometimes upload poems that only exist here.

Feel free to suggest things too. 

P.S. I'm a lazy writer and I'm too lazy to think of things to write unless of course I'm in "the mood". Which is usually 1 A.M. in the morning.

^Me most of the time

Now take a waffle (#) and stop reading this post. There's nothing else to see.

-accidental double post. Sorry.-

Well actually we caught the mouse in one of those cliche mouse traps, and it was still alive ;-;
My parents wanted to put in the backyard, wait for it to die, then throw it away... 
I had too kill it 'cause parents wouldn't and it's was already badly hurt.
I am definitely gonna ask my parents to use capture and release traps or ones with poison bait next time.
I completely agree that the mouse (rodent) shouldn't have to suffer more than it has too. 

My house has a mouse (mice) or a rat or something, we (my family) think we got one, and there could potentially (according to my parents) be another. So I need help on a some things
1. How do I keep my parents (mom especially ) from freaking out and becoming paranoid.
2. Whats the most effective method of killing/getting-rid-of  rodents? What types of traps, etc.
3. Do you think that isolating a mouse in a closet with a trap (plastic box with poisonous bait in it) and then having to wait three days is a little overboard? 'cause that's exactly what my parents are doing.
4. Best way to prevent these issues from happening again?
So yeah.... That's about it. This is probably in the wrong thread but there isn't  a forum section titled "Mice and other Rodents" so I'm putting it here.

zanderlex :
Yes, I would still be glad to trade for steam money, thank you very much, I'll certainly be able to wait a while

This is a very nice thing to do, considering the financial issues for vizzed recently. Vizzed was the first time i even considered interacting with an online community, and will always be my favorite site  
The game i would like to request is Vessel if still avaliable.

Salvage by Mangepic,


The mountain-side glistens

with sweat

The oceans brimming with aquatic life

and trash

The picturesque sky is painted with clouds

of smoke and fumes

The forest resonates with sounds of creatures high and low

running from a raging conflagration


The city is filled with people and technology,

so everybody knows,

but not everybody

seems to care,

and almost nobody

knows what to do


How much time

do we have left?

Is there any hope

for this planet?

How much can we

salvage from this dying world?

No one seems to know





A short poem I wrote randomly. Feedback appreciated.
