SHARE YOUR POEM(s)

I tire of industry and domesticated living, Sit at my cream-Formica cubical staring at meaningless dribble, And dream of our long ago beach walk, moonlight water splashing the rocky wall, talking of our plans.
The future is now, and all I have is industry and domesticated living, All I have is shit,

Dive deeper and deeper,
Dive deeper into me,
Peer inside cobwebbed catacombs of empty rooms filled with meaningless dribble, Creeking stairs and broken glass, hearth long ago abandoned, This is were you will find me.

Dive deeper and deeper,
Dive deeper into me,
I am broken at this moment, twisted and deformed and terribly ashamed.
The future is now, and all I have is industry and domesticated living, All I have is shit,

Tonight I’ll drive,
Drive further and further and further and further and further, To that beach. To the lapping surf, to the once forgotten place, Outside the broken windows, inside of me, a place where I can allow myself to remember and forgive you finally, a place where I can wrap my tired arms around the most tender memory, All I have is this.

Dive deeper and deeper,
Through this shallow ocean between us,
Like a delicious rainbow trout in the fryer,
I long for your lips around my penis
lips around my penis
lips around my penis,

Not a very good poem, but i wrote this after New Orleans
Again like what Sammij said, alot of my stuff is very personal.. so this one would be best!



When it seems like no one can help you
You fear this world you once trusted
Family, friends still not found
Hold what you love dear, though your heart has suffered

Lights fly by in the night sky
Hands from the helpless that aren’t waving good bye
Children crying naked from their parents
Who will keep them from their nightmares?

Whispers to god from families un-seen
Trapped inside thinking they were safe
Crowds making there way through the floods
Screams of pain to the objects in the sky

ok, i'll post this for the sake of posting, altho it's been posted before, no one said anything so it was like i never posted it anyway
i think i wrote this when i was about 16 or 17...:

"Night Train"

it's getting late as i
travel thru dark tunnels and
lights flicker in
the car while
homeless drunks mumble and doze
i sigh...
and think back 2 2nite
the way our bodies entwined
my skin melted in2
yours - choclate sweet
i shiver @
the thought of how u
kissed - touched - teased me
put me @ ease 4 the rest
of the night (shhh...peace)
i know this route
all 2 well
but u...
took me 2 a place
no train, plane, automobile
could ever go
u were my one-way ticket
2ecstasy - so 2 speak
our journey finished now
4 good, so sad
as i jump 2 my feet
she a tear as wheels screech
and step off
The Night Train...



i've been reluctant to posting my poetry because i write in a very choppy sense, kinda like whatever's in my mind in that moment is a line in itself...
once i posted another poem in the same style and i was encouraged to study the mechanics of poetry... sigh i unno
i just write...it's not really poetry, it's not really prose...
it's just written...


disclaimer: i wasn't with anyone at the time...just really writing out a fantasy i had... shrug

He's obviously the "one" and this is a testament that the rational doesn't necessarily obscure the primal. Very cerebral. I like it.

Oh , sorry. It just seemed very fragile. Very intense. Like you were just letting it spill from your subconcious thought stream with no need to filter the directness of it.

I guess it makes for great theatre even if it no longer applies to your life. shrug

Okay, technically this is offtopic since you asked for our poems, but I read this one in the latest New Yorker and I liked it. Their poetry usually bores the fuck out of me.

Sixtieth Birthday Dinner

If in the men's room of our favorite restaurant
while blissfully pissing riserva spumante
I punch the wall because I am so old,
I promise not to punch too carelessly.

Our friend Franco cooks all night and day
to transform blood and bones to osso buco.
He shouldn't have to clean them off his wall
or worry that a customer gone cuckoo

has mushed his knuckles like a slugger
whose steroid dosage needs a little tweaking.
My life with you has been beyond beyond
and there's nothing beyond it I'm seeking.

I just don't want to leave it, and I am
with every silken bite of tiramisu.
I wouldn't mind being dead
If I could still be with you.

-- Michael Ryan


That's actually some complex rythym up in there and I love the enjambment that breaks it in half. nod

P.S. If this thread was an Elizabethan poet it would suck ass.

i found this one..i wrote when i was about 13 or 14..


reaching the gaping whole,a fixture of desolate in the eyes.
a wanting desire to escape loud dirty streets.
tired of the manifesting in discreet atributtes
and if the hunger gets to your limbs,then lies
should be easy to convey.
with ardos delight a lingering thought arises
and then you vex the reality of that! desires are only left to the mind
but curiousity of man cannot hold them to the prey intact!
and as of matter of fact the journey to happiness is pretty long..
grip on the pavement
a fixture of desolate eyes wandering downward
awaiting for the train wind's to past.
a glee of joy reflects the dirty window
as you leave the busy streets of your mind and of your reality.




im not sure what it was about..but there you go..sorta tripe no?
