He comes of as that older brother whose a tad too wise
To the point where you'd hope he'd choke on his work
That stupid consenence and free verse and stupid circle affects
Not because he's a bad writter but because he's your brother
And he's right and trying to look out for you
And it annoys the hell out of you sometimes
But deep down you respect him because he's undeniably,
James.
And you listen and you love to listen
But its only because you've listened enought
To the point where he grows on you
Who maybe deserves a little bit of acknowledgement
But he doesn't get it, yet he's still James
Still writting about how he fell out of the world
Found a kingdom, found himself and got back in the ring
Not as a philosopher king but as James, you're older brother.
And he's got his girl, who'd do anything for anyone
Who is him and he is her and thats how it goes
And so Arianna is James and James, Arianna
It's James against the world, yet James still wears the same shirt
He wore when he was 15 and the same jeans from before that
And will always on and on be James,
Who sits on the edge of the dock casting stones out as far as he can
Telling you to make it your own way, to throw the rocks one day
Farther than he ever could, So to grow and learn from the life of James

I have only really entered one other rounds contest, I made it to the 3rd round when they threw in an erotic round (not a fan of poetry thats ripped from romance novels).
