Random Writing - Hypocrisy



Passive militarism.
Militant lyricism.
Angry with the world,
Never within.
You can shout all you want.
Scream and shout.
Twist and shout.
Shout it out.
Talk it out.
Talk back.
Talk smack.
Whisper...
Whispers from the demons in your heart of hearts.
Whisper all the fear and your sins and your vanities. 
Whisper your distaste for tragedies and calamities.
These stone walls have no ears.
Only echoes.

Review - The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" isn't exactly a great movie. It's pacing is off and it suffers a few incongruities. Also, it stars Ben Stiller. Although, to his credit, he's actually likeable in this one, probably for the first time ever. Which maybe means he can act. Maybe. Or maybe it's just a really good character. The thing is, while it's not a great film. It speaks to me. The photography, the wanderlust, the feel good ending... I suppose it's not about the starting point or the ending; it's about the journey in between. 3.5/5.

"But it's cold outside."
"Open the window."
"But I don't like the cold."
"Well I do. I'll keep you warm."
And so she did.
