I'm very new at this.

I have never really blogged before, I don't quite know what to do.  I suppose this is a place for art, and my art (because you can't post theater on a blog) is writing.  Here's a poem that I wrote that won First Place in the High School Poetry category at the High Point Literary Festival recently.

Party Monster

Party Monster, rage and candy
Breaking necks, but looking dandy
Keeping Tabs and selling drugs
Twisting sheets with every thug
Ripping people up to bits
Every target takes a hit
Strolling like a superstar
Rolling in her stolen car
Moving bricks up through her nose
A dirty thing in fancy clothes
Poison mouth, venom drips
Sins tattooed across her hips
The DEA don't know her name
But all the hustler's watch her game
She grins and hands you leathal pills
Never worries who she kills
Shows you down the rabbit's hole
Always plays the villian's role
Every word could be a lie
Giggles when she makes you cry
Sells the kids her evil things
Parent's nightmares are their dreams
The prettiest evil you could find
But no one ever seems to mind
Someone always takes her fall
We wonder how she does it all
The sickest bitch you'll ever meet
How does she make it look so sweet?
