Rudyard Kiplingโs 1903 poem "Boots," from his collection The Five Nations, depicts the repetitive thoughts of a British infantryman during the Second Boer War. It reflects the exhaustion caused by long, often futile marchesโsuch as the 300-mile advance on Pretoriaโwhile pursuing Boer guerrillas.

It's one of my favourite poems and I love its real horror theme.ย I'll also leave a "performance" of the poem by Taylor Holmes, I reall... » Continue Reading

I want to go back to the mental hospital so bad. I got in there in the first place because I wanted too and I was curious on what it was like. At first it felt a little odd and new. But once I warmed up, I actually really liked it there and felt like I belonged.
