Poems

Brent Kincaid May 2016
I was having a cigarette
On top of a ziggurat
When I asked the Sphinx
To say what he thinks.
He said I’d know what he did
If I were in the pyramid.
But instead I had got
Myself on a ziggurat
So, he couldn’t say what
He truly thought he thought.

Then the Sphinx said to me
There will be lots of mystery
And I am certainly not joking
But you must give up smoking.
Because an important answer
Is that ziggurats cause cancer.

I don’t believe that is so.
I feel I must let you know
That there isn’t a chance
I mean, look how you dance
With your body all flat
In those tall pointy hats
Your elbows look broken
So, I know you are joking
And making an ancient pun,
You are just having fun
With a modern American.
I will do whatever I can
To try to catch the basic gist
Of whatever I have missed.

Then uttered the Sphinx
You logic is missing some links.
I’m older than the pyramids
And you are all just kids.
Now you know what the Sphinx thinks.

Tienes labios rosas
Y pelo *****,
Quiero te besar
Y estar bailando.
Una poema que yo escribí cuando en clase. Si ustedes hablan español bueno, ¡dicen que como la poema es, por favor! (Porque yo todavía estoy aprendiendo español. Mi idioma primera es inglés.)

Si yo toco
Y tú cantas
Podemos ser
Una banda de leyendas
