In the very beginning of the movie "300" we see that Spartans kill messengers from Persia. But somebody told me that killing messengers at that time was equal to losing your honor and that Spartans would've never done that. Does anybody have any knowledge regarding this?

I have to do a self portrait as a project to get into college for Graphic Design. I'm really exited but I have a question. Do I paint the background first or doesn't it matter and also let's say I'm drawing the nose or mouth, do I have to wait for the paint to dry before I paint the shadows and highlights over the mouth/nose or do I just paint over it even though it's wet. Thanks

thrteen years

Reflections always start to lie,
The mirror knows too much.
Yesterday has long since past,
And tomorrow may never come. .

Thirteen years, nothings changed,
Your promises have all died.
I never let you see my rage,
You could never see me cry.

All your gifts came straight from hell,
A strangers mournful scream.
The scripts already been written,
Someone has to take the fall.

There are no rainbows anywhere,
The words that I desire.
No choices for the chosen,
I could never figure why?

Now you know what I see,
The voice behind the veil.
Confessions decieve, never relieve,
Not with Satan at the helm.

Our souls together, now ripped apart,
My thoughts they transcend time.
Now you know just where I stand,
But I can never tell you why.

I recently borrowed and watch its vcd.

Were those Japanese that exploded themselves by bombs (in committing suicide honorably) realistic as I wonder weren't bombs suppose to devastate those around them?

I find little or no bayonet to bayonet fighting esp. when the Japanese ran out of ammunitions at the last days.

Tiny orbs of mistrust
gather at the edge-
a slit, one of two in an observant center
too heavy to sustain they cascade from the orifice
plummetting to their death
in a resounding yet insignificant splash.

Hands outstretched toward the glowing ominous sky
tears intertwined with raindrops-brother and sister
fingers interlocked as a plea to God
thunder booming and lightning illustrating
The Response.

Acutely jumbled limbs too feeble to kneel
but willing in all devotion they stumble,
crooked and fumbling about on the
coarse peppered sand beneath him.
Shouting out into the night
his strained voice grows frail and weak-
indistinguishable amongst the rustling and swaying trees
he shouts louder still to be heard.

Holding his limp limbs close to his body,
rocking and swaying in the clearing of the trees
he whispers to himself a solitary prayer.

As dawn approaches, golden and glistening on the horizon
he is born again.

Birthday Girl

Duma and Naqita in clown costumes.
Lots friends and guests.
Outdoor party with a beach theme.
Dancing and music playing all day long.
24 candles to blow out at day’s end.
Lots of presents, large and small.
A special gift like nothing in the world.
A baby blue colored tiger for you.

Im only 12 so I dont know anything about good rhythm. I had to write this for class, here it goes.

I am a depressed girl who hates her life
I wonder what its like to die
I hear Death, calling my name
I see life fading from the world
I want to be alone for once in my life
I am a depressed girl who hates her life

I pretend people actually care
I feel my heart breaking
I touch the sky-then sink back to reality
I worry for only myself, thats why im hated
I cry over the void in my life
I am a depressed girl who hates her life
I understand I should not be this way
I say.."Just leave me alone!"
I dream of the day this pain will end
I try to stop all the misery
I hope to be left alone
I am a depressed girl who hates her life




Thats my poem. What do you think? Star if u like it. Star if u feel bad for how terrible it was.
Before you ask, yes this is about how I feel, yes, this is what I wrote, not copied from somewhere. Please comment on how I write. Ty
