SHE PULLS A RUSTED STAPLE GUN: "YOU WANT TETANUS, *******?"
i think the ten-word-poem trend going around is an excellent idea executed horribly. too much abstraction, too little concreteness. so, y'know, i made it as concrete as possible. also technically the fourth in my ten-minute poem series.

Will I be able to look into a pair of dark eyes
without imagining how nice it would feel
if those were yours?
Will I be able to laugh my heart out
without having the urge to tell you
the stupid joke I just heard?
Will I be able to be completely happy
*without you at all?

it's almost like some
kind of terrible joke
like
you are paper
i am glue
i'm so *******
stuck on you

With this modern technology
all the memories i had of us
are stuck in my phone.

Going through every picture of us
made me realise how much
we once where happy together.
Up until i came across the one
that said "Give me back my heart"

i listened to our phone call records,
the beat you sent for me,
the songs you composed for me
and those songs we always
sang together and realised
how much music brought us close
all the time
Up until i came across a song
saying "So now i take my heart back"

i went through the messages and texts we wrote to each other
they seem quite romantic
and they made me realise
how open we where with each other
Up until the day you made
1 June, 2015, 23:59
the last day we ever talked
to each other.

Now that i hear my friends asking
me so many things about you,
while still making jokes about
you and i.
It troubles,my heart because      
i know how much
there is no love any more
It was fun having you in my life
I don't know where
But
Somewhere
Somewhere along the way
I knew that no one else could ever take your place
You mean to much to me to lose
I want you forever
I need you
No one else would ever do
I only want you
Forever
I want to spend every second
Every moment with you
For the rest of my life
Somewhere in you eyes
In your smile
Between the silly jokes and stupid fights
I have fallen more and more in love
You're so special
So dear to my heart
I never want to be apart
You are the only one I will ever want
I want to marry you
To be Husband and Wife
Oh what a life
Wouldn't that be nice
I want to to see the world with you
An adventure around every corner
I want to try new things
Discover who we are together
I will love you for ever and forever
I could never feel this way for anyone else <3

it's true.
what they say.
suffering drives you to make laughter.
she struts on the stage,
bends her body to the right,
then the left,
she does a spin,
and strikes a pose
then slides into a waltz like dance
she bends over and grabs her ankles
and drags her hands up her body as she rises
her fingers grab her shirt
and she lifts it off her body
quick strikes a pose
and does a counter-clockwise spin
during which she unsnaps her bra
and works her arms until it's off
now you see her beautiful *******
bouncing free
she does a dance
and skips off stage

A man comes out in a suit and tie
"Give it up for the ladies tonight"
"You know if they were any more beautiful
we'd be accused of committing crimes.
did anybody hear about the President's trip to hannaford
he said yes, even you can afford
but that's not the worst part
his children were found playing in the alcohol isle
popping off beers and drinking them
I mean why not?
when you're the kid of the president
why would you give a ****?
now give a hand to our next lovely lady
all the way from asia
to do her dance
of fantasy
give it up for the one and only
Chi Verina Lee"

She strutted out on stage (in bra and *******)
she bent over to show her cleavage
and she grabbed her knees
she lifted her finger to her lip
and shished the audience
then she pointed out to them
and waved to come forward as she shook her ***
then she got up and turned her back to the audience
and hunched up her shoulders and looked
as if to see if anyone was watching her
she broke out into a quadruple plea-A
and bent for a sideways bow
then she moved her arms in an arch
and bent all the way down and touched the floor
she broke out into spins going the opposite way
in the midsts her bra went flying
she stopped to reveal small and perky *******
pointing toward the audience
This is an entertainment piece geared toward mature aged males

There's a time to laugh,
and theres a time to cry,
but if we only ever cry,
then we'll soon surely die.

If we only ever laugh
we'll surely be seen as,
a mere sociopath,
who is too unattached,
to ever be sad.

BREAKING THE SWEAT,
THERES NO REGRET,
MAKING A BET,
A JAWLINE THAT CRACKS.

EXTRA WITH THE HEAT,
NO ONE CAN BEAT,
STRAIGHT TO THE FEET,
WELCOME TO MAIN STREET.

NOW OFF TO REPEAT,
HE WOULD COMPLETE,
OFF WITH A KICK,
SO JUST TAKE A SEAT.

JANE IS A FEAT,
STRAIGHT FROM THE CREEK,
BRIGHTER THAN A GEEK,
BREAKEVEN TREAT.

WHAT A FEAT,
NOT EVEN I- COULD EAT,
MANY COULD PEEK,
BUT NONE COULD KEEP.
Just for fun :) from and for a friend
