The Definition of Me

Prologue

To easily deceive others while writing, one must know how to manipulate the English language.

Knowing how to twist another author's words is a difficult task, knowing how to twist one's own words can be even more complex. I say this not to bring doubt, or to set a map. I say this to propose to you an idea. One can never know the true intentions behind an author’s writings. The one who says they do is, a liar.

The words purchased and sold are not all black and white; and the simplest of words may end up being the most difficult to understand. To read is to experience the pains, rewards, feelings, and thoughts of those who were, are, and are to come. To accurately define one's character is to know the thoughts, feelings, struggles, and imaginations of the one whom you are defining. So a warning to you:

Judge not the Man who created the skies, land, seas, and creatures, nor the creations themselves. Judge not the Man who writes your name in that Great Book. Fear the one who controls the wind, seas, earth, and time for He has the final judgement. Respect the blank space between men and The Great Power. For that heavenly power is the one who determines your fate.

Prologue: In Poetry Form (Translucent)

My mind on display

For you to see

Straight through me

Though the view may be hazy.

Translucent.

Not crystal clear

Not here

Whilst I expose all my fears dear

I open up to you

The one who opens up the book, and who

Are hopefully touched by my words too

And maybe discover things you never knew

About me and you

Hopefully this book offers something new

For you.

The First Siren Sister

Come.

Don't you want to help me?

Don't you want to know my secrets?

Many have tried

To help me,

But they were weak.

You're different than those people

Only you can truly help

You're the one I trust

You know the true me

I'm not evil

I’m just a misunderstood girl.

Only you can set me free!

Only you can help me

Only you can save me

Only you can...

It is funny what people will believe

In times of flattery.

It is amazing

How many crash on my island's shore

It has become a loathsome sport

And yet a marvelous competition

To be continued.
