I've recently (~1 hour ago) uploaded a song titled Why's everything so shite, which is about what people are made out of (It's shit -- not the song, we are). I completely forgot (again) that this wasn't my first nor last shitty song or poem (the other's being the Hallowed waste) and these are kind of parodies of differnet ideas like "why certain items have values". Hope you're ready for this:
Everything you've got
=====================
__hook__
I ain't sayin' "shit"
I am sayin' only "shite",
'Cuz "shit" became too common
And all of this is shite
I ain't sayin' "shit"
I am sayin' "shite" though
'Cuz this wonderful word
Worth everything I know-ow-ow!
__verze 1__
Oh, that's right, lil' fellow
All is shite you've gotten
Ya mama's gold, ya papa's work
Shite is only that allotted
Money's got value because
We have given it some
Shite is though, a precious thing
Just never ask where's it from
You may think now it's untrue
It can't bring you the light
But listen to me, just carefully
Everything's gonna be fine!
You'd say that it's bullshit
And otherwise you be right
But here ain't no shit,
here everything is shite!

And all of this is shite

'Cuz this wonderful word
Worth everything I know-ow-ow!

As you can see, unlike practically any other writing, this is in its original form, no changes whatsoever (besides the title that normally isn't there). This is how a lyrics looks like in my archive: plain text (UTF-8 encoded, mostly DOS format \r\n line-breaks for compatibility -- even though I use Linux most of the time), labels/marks surrounded by underscores, optional/uncertain words/part marked by brackets, notes are marked by either #, // or (), instructions are surrounded by angle brackets (or less-than and greater-than signs, <>). Also, I prefer using " for quotation, as ' is too commonly used for other purposes (and I'm using plain texts here, not fancy program that'll convert those into "proper" punctuation -- ASCII only as much as possible, besides accented characters).
I'm done with 30+ writings, and these are only the [toki pona](/toki pona) stuff and lyrics (in the other languages). Poems, novellas, others are left. God may become real and help me out with these.
Writing began at 08 nov 2021 and was put on hold for the better part of 2022 until publishing.
Throughout my years as a writer, I found myself unable to write on command. Every time I am faced with restrictions, deadlines or the possibility of working with unlike-minded individuals, whether it is a short story, a song or as simple as a letter, my mind seems to freeze and to actively deter inspiration, preventing ideas to form and prosper in what otherwise would be the perfect habitat for them...
I'm lost in the light
I'm lusting the void
People around me
Are nothing, but noise
I am surrounded
There's nowhere to go
The lack of the bright
Is where I feel home

"No!" The angry student exclaimed, "I told you already! This is it! I refuse to change any of it!" He threw his papers in the air and stormed out of the lecture hall.
"What was that about?" asked the curious bystander, who helped Mark to pick up the angry student's essay.
"Just another art student refusing criticism," he said as he looked at his empty wrist, "do you know what time is it?"
"It's 11:05," she revealed with morbid casualty.
