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'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'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. :)
