Do not call me by your nicknames
I can see the poison dripping off your tongue
Do not touch me without consent
This body is mine and mine alone
Do not tell me to stay quiet
My words could spark a revolution
Do not try to control me
My power is unbridled and vicious
Do not mistake me for weak
I am a force to be reckoned with
This poem was inspired by a sexist and homophobic teacher I have

i wrote a lot of great poetry when i was in love
i wrote even better poetry when i was in pain
i wrote the best poetry when i realized that the two emotions were actually the same.
Clarity stays near confusion
If you look beyond the haze
you'll get to meet her too.

a cigarette is but a crutch,
that a sad man puts his weight upon.
a cigarette is nothing much
but a reminder of memories now forgone.
Will you ever
Or will you never

Feel for me
The way I feel for you

If you don't
How will I cope
I should hope
You will

Gold sun sets, its rays blindly flashing
The colors painted on a barren sky
Its beauty unforetold, nonexistent matching
Too magnificent for naked eye.

Horizon covering its art once clear
The sunset's melted away.
No matter what, do not fear
It will return another day.
When the moonlight comes anew
The doves will coo, coo, coo

Bats flap
Thunder claps

Rain will splatter
Pitter patter

Wind is howling
Leapords growling

Lightning flashes
Tree crashes

Sound then silence
Dark then light

The sun peaks out
Behind a cloud
It draws a crowd

The trees are bathed in sunlight
Baby's crying is so loud
It has certainly drawn a crowd

Baby stomps, stomps, stomps her feet
When she does so, it's so sweet

Baby always, always drools
When she does so, she thinks she's cool

Baby really likes to eat
Her favorite thing to eat is meat
Tell me
has the wind whispered through your bones
the way your fingers fall between the strands of my hair.
do the leaves drift abound suspended in flight
as your heart flutters captured in time.

Tell me
do my ardent advances tremble your able will,
has my unyielding touch coerced such affections,
will our embrace yet come at last,
can lips crash into raw ardor.

Tell me
can this go on
