Poetry: A Best Friend Isn't
What a best friend isn't
Is a source of income
Always have their hand out
Never once giving some
Of their own money
To help out with the tab
I've had enough, I'll bust
Into a rage, because it's
Driving me nuts
Friends are supposed to be there
In the good times and the bad
Don't pick and choose
Or you'll lose what you had
It saddens me to say
Friends should be friends
And not your personal bank

Poetry About Ps4
I've waited years just to play the PS4
Stood outside in line all day
No shower, little food, cold hands
While I sit and watch the news
People going crazy all around
Counting down the minutes
Until PS4 was a reality
It was my reality
I dashed inside
To get what was mine
Watched the cashier ring it up
He said, " that' ll be 500 bucks."
I reached inside my pockets
Digging for my wallet
My eyes were wide
I realized that I was in the zone
When my friend yelled,
"Dude, you left your wallet at home!"

Rant: Youtube Has Too Many Ads
I usually don't do rant posts, but I just couldn't help myself. If you haven't been on YouTube, then you should check that site out. Apparently they have put a sh*t load of ads everywhere. It takes so long for the site to load now. I know they have bills to pay, but that's not an excuse.

Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel Review
Introduction
I'm a male with natural hair, and it's difficult to find hair products that work. My hair texture is curly and I can't find a gel that can hold my curls. I've tried other products in the past with horrible results.
Most of the hair gel that I buy makes my hair too frizzy or too flaky. Being multi-racial, I'm not sure what products work on my hair type. A woman at my job told me I was a 3B-3C hair type. I'm not too sure what that means, but I guess it's good.

Poetry: Good Morning
It's morning time and we lie in bed
I can't help, but to shed a tear
Because she looks so beautiful
Her hair swept to the side
With the greenest eyes
I'm so in love, it's sickening

Poetry: Dreams
At night when I go to sleep
I have a moment to focus
On the things that are bothering
Me, they manifest themselves
In the form of dreams, and these
Are quite necessary, I'm not
Talking ghosts, aliens, or fairies
It's more like hopes, success, and clarity
I'm not sure what life is all about
Should I strive for success?
Am I just happy to play my part?
After dark is when these problems come
To the surface, I guess my brain
Is so waterlogged, with being perfect
Poetry: Stress
My stomach is in knots
I'm constantly looking at my watch
Just stop, for a minute
Is what my mind tells me
It seems like stress has no limits
Panic stricken on the edge
Living with fear and fright
It makes my blood boil
My problems grow roots
Like they're in soil
The world is bullying me
I don't have a plan B
I'm stuck without a way out
So it's me or them, I told you see
I can guarantee that it won't be me
Poetry: Danger
Danger, danger is all around me
She's stalking my every move
I see her at schools, malls
On the road with all the cars
Just waiting for me to make
A mistake, it's a life changing
Event, she spent all her time
Trying to make me give in to her

Poetry: Drive Me Crazy
Her love drives me crazy
When I read that look in her eyes
My heart stops beating inside
So for this ride, it's to the death
Left in the dust, I was left to walk
When we have problems
Our relationship comes
To a screeching halt

Poetry: Winter Wonderland
The icy blast of death
Left snow that froze over the land
And everything was still
Motionless dreams of starting over
Boulders of snow fall down a hill
Snowball fights in the courtyard
Ice clung tight to the trees
Like that one desperate girl at prom

Poetry: Secrets
I keep my secrets in a closet
Starved them from the truth
I only feed them lies
They never see the light of day
Hey, people judge me anyways
Those secrets have company
The skeletons chat it up
Secrets meet skeletons

Should the PS4 Have Free Online Play?
I just finished watching a YouTube video about the PS4. I heard that Sony is charging people to play online. I can't lie when I heard this I was pissed.
After all these years and all the systems they choose the PS4 to start pay to play. If you think about it they're cutting out a lot of potential online players.

Flash fiction: The voices
"I'm not sure Dr. Whitman, but I've been hearing voices."
"Dennis how long have you had this problem?" Dennis is hesitant to answer.
"W-W-Well, it all started when I was a kid." I was about 10-years-old, and I was in my grandma's basement. I knew I shouldn't be playing in there, but I did it anyways."

Tips to Make Your Writing Better
Writing is a skill that constantly needs adjusting. I want to give a couple of writing tips to all you aspiring writers. Try to focus on improving your style, grammar, and punctuation. I've noticed a trend among writers that are new to freelance writing. They seem to think that what they learned in high school and college applies to online content. This becomes a problem because these are two different styles of writing. In school, they will teach you a very formal way of writing.

The Truth About Freelance Writing
Working a conventional job is something most people dread. Waking up early in the morning, and all the long hours can have you worn out by the end of the day. I've been fortunate enough to pick up freelance writing as a career change. I started out working at home for a couple of online sites. The money isn't what I thought it would be, and it took so long to see any views.

My Site Was Hit With Negative SEO
Negative SEO is a fairly common thing among popular websites. If you're not familiar with negative SEO, it's when you purposely link a competitors site to low quality websites. I thought that my site was in the clear, but I guess I was wrong.
Recently, I've noticed in my Blogger account that there are links from porn sites. The spammers are just going crazy with these tactics to pull other bloggers down with them. My competitors are trying to destroy my rankings in Google by doing this, but I will just use the disavow links tool.

Why I'm Not A Pet Lover
As a kid, I was pretty fond of pets, but I wouldn't call myself a pet lover. I had a couple of cats and one dog. I also have some pets at my house and I just got a new dog. I've been having a difficult time trying to train him not to poop on the floor. I want him to wait until I take him outside. I'm a caring person and I know pets can't speak English, but sometimes I get frustrated. I've noticed this new dog likes to tear up a lot of my things.

Mturk Review
I've been hearing a lot of buzz about the Mturk site, so I wanted to write a review. When you first sign up it's through an Amazon account. Mturk will review your application and it takes up to 48 hours to be accepted. I've heard that Mturk is only accepting U.S applications, but this could change in the future. I'm assuming that you've been accepted, so it's time to get to work. You can choose "hits", which is what Mturk calls jobs. The hits are pretty easy to complete, and they range in price.

Make Money Online: Textbroker Review
If you're like me and you need some extra cash, then look no further. Textbroker is an online place where you get paid to work at home. The first thing you have to do is sign-up and submit a writing sample. Textbroker follows the AP (Associated Press) style guide, so study that if you want a good score. Your writing will be evaluated by editors to see what is your writing level. There is a star rating system ranging from a 2-star to a 5-star author. There isn't a 1-star rating and if you receive a 1-star it means you can't work for Textbroker. The entire process to be reviewed takes about a week.

A Day Without Internet

What would people do would there be a lot of problems? I can think of some things I would do with my friends and family. I would go out the house more often, and not spend so much time on social media sites.

Five Things to Avoid When Blogging
I've been an avid blogger for almost two years, and it's been a wild ride. I noticed some differences in the way people blog. You want to find a blogging style that is comfortable for you. There are also some things you want to avoid. Many new bloggers think that you can write a couple of articles, and then you're going to cash out. This couldn't be further from the truth. Blogging is a slow process, and many bloggers quit before they see any type of revenue. The best way to make it to the top is to avoid these five things.

What to Avoid When Writing Poetry
I've been writing poetry for a little over a year now, and I've listed some things you want to avoid. If you have an idea for a poem just build off of that idea. Poems don't have to rhyme, but I prefer to write ones that do rhyme. Most people when they write poetry is to make it personal. I've read poems that are so personal they go as far as to mention the persons name.

What Kind of HDTV Should I Buy?
There are some people who are resistant to technology. When in fact a HDTV can do you more good than harm. If you enjoy watching movies, television shows, and surfing the Internet, high definition is the way to go. I remember when I bought my first 1080p monitor. It was a 23" monitor, but it really did pack a punch. I immediately recognized the clarity in the picture quality.

With that said, if it's something you want to do there are some things you need to know. The most important thing is come up with a name that has a "ring" to it. Most of the popular graffiti artists have a name that has some kind of meaning. You want to stay away from obvious names that have been used before.
