Will They Hear You Now -Contest Winner

By Anonymous
Written by Bean_Of_Spooks

TANZZ_i_like_dragons wrote a wonderful song for our songwriter's contest! I loved the images that this song gave me:

Will They Hear You Now?

sleep with one eye open
and don't you say a word
about the noise you heard
they'll come for us tonight
the sirens will show where they meet

if our collision could maybe
shatter all our luckless stars
and then the fragments will
all fall down at your feet

did you fall apart
right from the rough start?
did they make you play a part
not made for your soft heart?
'cause when their lights collide with your bones
then all the pieces fall at their feet
and all the blood of the brave
couldn't pay for their cells

an eye for an eye
and the world goes blind
where do we turn from here?
when we fight fire with fire
only ashes are left behind

if our collision could maybe
shatter all our luckless stars
and then the fragments will
all fall down at your feet

will you fall apart
right as the blows start?
were you made to play a part
not made for your soft heart?
'cause when their lights collide with your bones
then all your tears fall at their feet
and all the blood of the lost
couldn't pay for your bail

could they wash their hands now?
the hands that demolished our lives
well, the angels hear us cry
"who will save us now?"
wo-oa-oah, well

if our collision could maybe
shatter all our luckless stars
and then the fragments will
all fall down at your feet

did you fall apart
right from the rough start?
did they make you play a part
not made for your soft heart?
'cause when their lights collide with your bones
then all the pieces fall at their feet
and all the blood of the brave
couldn't pay for the debt they owe

your eyes, they shine so bright
i never found them blinding
do the angels hear us crying
"who will save us now?"

This is what the judge, Scaredy_Cat, said about Tanzz's song:

Will They Hear You Now: Everything from the title to your word choice and repetition really drives your message home. This was hard-hitting and it felt strong and angry and sad at the same time and I loved it. Favorite lines- "an eye for an eye/and the world goes blind/where do we turn from here?/when we fight fire with fire/only ashes are left behind"


I totally agree with Cat. Love you Tanzz <3

Biblio-Files: The Secret Garden

By
Hello good friends! Today we will be reviewing The Secret Garden. Published in 1911 by Frances Hodgson Burnett, it's a fantastic book about enjoying the outdoors and how much a good friend can help someone out. The good message and excellent writing make it a beloved classic still read today, over 100 years later. She also wrote "The Little Princess" and "Little Lord Fauntleroy," both books I have read and enjoyed, though I believe this is her best one. With its folksy characters and low-key plot, this book is perfect for readers who want to read at a slower pace. It talks a lot about the benefits of being outside and being kind to animals, but it doesn't feel overly preachy. The main characters are Mary, a sickly Indian girl, Dickon, a boy who can talk to animals, and Colin, the son of the master of the house. Together they bring a secret garden to life, becoming as strong and bright as the roses they grew within the ivy-covered walls. I, personall...

The Character Files: 01. Katniss Everdeen: The Girl on Fire, the Mockingjay, and the YA Icon

By
THE CHARACTER FILES 01. The Girl On Fire Hello everyone! And welcome to The Character Files , a weekly article I'll be writing that delves into analysis's of popular characters! Starting off, I'll cover the face of young adult dystopia herself - Katniss Everdeen. There will be spoilers for the Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins, so be warned! From The Mockingjay Part 1 Risen from the Ashes (Background) “District Twelve. Where you can starve to death in safety.” -Katniss Everdeen, the Hunger Games   As were most of the non career districts, District 12, Katniss’ birthplace, was rife with poverty. Disease and starvation were rampant, many people dying from them. (It is interesting to note that, despite seeing ill people frequently since her mother treats them, Katniss is not desensitized to seeing sickness. In fact, she is one of the least desensitized to it.) And...

Comparing Digital Art Programs

By
The world of digital art programs can be a tricky plane to navigate. Whether you're a budding digital artist looking for beginners programs to start on or a professional artist with a bunch of experience, here is a quick list of some of the more well-known names in digital art! Krita  - FREE Krita is a free, open-source software that is becoming much more popular among digital artists. The interface has full customization, so you can fix it to look almost however you want. It gives you access to all  brushes, colors, and other settings from the beginning without extra purchases. It's also quite advanced and powerful. Some drawbacks of Krita are that there is a learning curve, as the interface can be quite tricky. It's also very laggy and slow, especially on older laptops. (P.S.: If you like the software, consider donating to the Krita Foundation! They work on this software for free, and it's always nice to give back.) FireAlpaca - FREE FireAlpaca...
