My greatest weapons,
As an aspiring writer,
Are ink and papers.

'The pen is mightier than the sword.' This is a quote well said and I truly agree with this. (It was coined by Edward Bulwer-Lytton and was proven by Jose Rizal.)

Everyone&#039;s crazy. You know why? We all want to be normal. Well, we cant define normal, and, the people you can point at and say, well isn&#039;t he/she normal are rare. Doesnt that kind of defeat the pupose of normal? -My Friend

Great haiku!  Some of my greatest weapons are pen and paper, but words can be much more powerful. :)
