I once dreamed of this girl
She walked the streets all alone
lookin so lost and dazed
into the thoughts in her mind.
Ha, it was great.

She had a smile on her face
Not a care in the world,
Just going with the flow
living life day by day
Wait a second, Damn..
that girl's trapped in that mirror
She looks kinda like me?

Ha.
I never thought Ide end up hurt
this bad
to reach this state of numbness im in
Started feeling this rush traveling down all the veins in my body,
Why did i ever watse time, to care for all your faslely held opinions of me,
You can go along and die with all lies you deny and try to keep hidden from everyone,
including youself
If anyone believes your silly misconceptions me
Ill sit back and laugh
why so worried bout me?
Is it cuz you know i could care less about you
Maybe im just a little braver than you?
I guess i could be all wrong if there's a reason you worry about me more than yourself ide love to hear it, just be straight up with me
and you'll soon see everything is not as you think it is known in your mind.

Lost in thoughts
Corrupted in my mind
What am i doing here
Where am i going
Parellel thinking
Parellel universe
We are the same
Yet so different
Our lifestyles
The people we surround ourselves with
Can we work together
With the different views that we have?
I hear the beat and let it all out
I see things differnetly
Would you just look threw my views
Be in my shoes
In life you go to school
To go to more school
To get a job and
Work for you life
Am i not right?
Passing the bottle
Whatch crime rates go up
Passing the blunt
Letting the peace
Come and sieze
Everything going on in
My mentally deranged brain
Will you classify me as insane?
Learn how to work the system
How to work the government
Learn how to work every
possition you are being put in
Take a step back look at the difference
All your hard work
Paying for others lives
When you cant even afford your own?
This is a pretty messed up system
There are very few ways out
Keep hope for man kind
In the back of your mind
I really hope you listen to
This reality im spitting
I say i write for myself
But i look to be heard
This is one small messed up world
Im not making you take my word
Ill tell you how it is
How it has been
And how it will always be
You dont have to agree
With the words that i say
These are my thoughts
About the ways we have been living our lives

Poem questions

Out Beyond Ideas

1. The significance in the poem Out Beyond Ideas title is to grab your attention and make you interested.

2. The tone of the poem is hopeful.

3. The mood makes me feel like there is someone like you but you just have to wait to find them to not feel alone and they will eventually meet you in the middle.

4. I think the shift of Out Beyond Ideas is where it says "I'll meet you there" to "when the soul lies down in that grass". I think it is the shift because it talk about how there are right and wrong things to do and how they are going to meet you in the middle, then it goes to how there are too many things going on that don't make sense.

5. The theme of the poem "Out Beyond Ideas" is that there is too much to know what is going on in the world and it doesn't make sense why we do wrong when we know it's wrong.

-Mildred (Montags wife) always wants more and is pretty selfish

Why do we do the things we do?

We all know how it is. We sit there and procrastinate and blow things off that we shouldn't; all of us do it. Sometimes I wonder what I can do instead of putting things aside and saying "I'll do it tomorrow". Is there ever a moment where we stop what were doing and realilize I can make something of my life. You can peruse your dreams, if you try. But it takes work everything takes work and effort and yet haven't we found the will to stop being lazy and get up and do so. Instead of thinking what you could of done, why don't you do it?
