"abc" poems
'Twas midnight in the schoolroom And every desk was shut When suddenly from the alphabet Was heard a loud "Tut-Tut!" Said A to B, "I don't like C; His manners are a lack. For all I ever see of C Is a semi-circular back!" "I disagree," said D to B, "I've never found C so. From where I stand he seems to be An uncompleted O." C was vexed, "I'm much perplexed, You criticise my shape. I'm made like that, to help spell Cat And Cow and Cool and Cape." "He's right" said E; said F, "Whoopee!" Said G, "'Ip, 'Ip, 'ooray!" "You're dropping me," roared H to G. "Don't do it please I pray." "Out of my way," LL said to K. "I'll make poor I look ILL." To stop this stunt J stood in front, And presto! ILL was JILL. "U know," said V, "that W Is twice the age of me. For as a Roman V is five I'm half as young as he." X and Y yawned sleepily, "Look at the time!" they said. "Let's all get off to beddy byes." They did, then "Z-z-z."

Now you know your ABC'S
The smile of iceboxes annihilates me. Such blue currents in the veins of my loved one! I hear her great heart purr. From her lips ampersands and percent signs Exit like kisses. It is Monday in her mind: morals Launder and present themselves. What am I to make of these contradictions? I wear white cuffs, I bow. Is this love then, this red material Issuing from the steele needle that flies so blindingly? It will make little dresses and coats, It will cover a dynasty. How her body opens and shuts -- A Swiss watch, jeweled in the hinges! O heart, such disorganization! The stars are flashing like terrible numerals. ABC, her eyelids say.

An Appearance
I would've given birth To you, Endured whatever Mothers do. Instead, I did What Dads do. I rocked you Til my future shook; Watched you til I couldn't look. As you changed, I changed too, To do the things That Dads do. You were bathed, Dressed and fed; I loved you so much I was saved. If there's credit, Well, I get it, For teaching you to read. I took the blame When you got bored With school's ABC's. I followed you In all your roles, Your teams, Your solos, Your trips, Your shows. First to clap, Last to sit; I taped it all, From start - To finish. I taught you How to tie a lace, Ride a bike, Golf and skate. When time arrived For you to drive, You learned On standard, Never stranded, You came home alive. Your highs I took in stride, By example taught Humility's pride. Your lows, I couldn't internalize, I dropped my guard With my eyes. When Dad's do well It's a double edge, The future wedge. The world Revealed Desired you too. I don't dismiss What mothers do, But when Dads do well, Both lose you.

ABC Poem (Medical Stuff )
~explaining light to the blind~ ~for Suzy~ the insanity of even attempting who among us, the sighted, has the capability to clarify an animate inanimate, an untouchable invisible, that can be folded, bent, travel universes unseen at its own chosen speed, even to another sighted and to the blind... imagine then light as something that be recognized from the inside only with in- sight ~***think of the continuum from warmth to steel furnaced heat, that is an element of what is light, the sun cheek kissing, the furnace of chests when you grasp another’s body first time think of light as water, the faucet spigot a measured pouring, that can overshoot, the stream behind the house, a toe tickling masseuse caress, a dam’s waterfall endless crashing, a sea, wave licking sudden raging dangerous blend these sensations that belong to all, and you’ll know light better than most, indeed, light is for those who cannot vision except from the inside with a sight that can be touched, felt, imagined, and which the sightless command better than us ordinary thoughtless indeed light is as simple to understand as   abc, which you have never seen, but creates the words that we all use even share***~

ABC Poem (Fruit and Vegetables)
Inspired  by  Disney's  magical  kingdom, And  enchanting  fantasy  tales,  You've  reached  the  learning  age  of  five, Leaving  precious  memories,  deep  in  my  heart, Like  dainty  little  footprints, upon  a  trail. Since  the  first  day  you  entered  my  classroom, Shying  away,  in  a  world  of  your  own, And  nearly  in  tears, Waiting  to  be  picked  up, And  taken  back  home. But  you  gradually  surpassed  this  fear, Allowing  me  into  your  life, As  I  reached  out  with  dedication, And  unconditional  love, Opening  the  door  to  your  futureand  watched  you strive. By  quickly  learning  your  ABC's,  123's,  colors, Sounds,  and   mastered  the  writing  of  your  name  quite  early, Including  other  tasks,  and  now  it  may  sound  effortless, But  it's  a  gift  you've  certainly  gained, And  today,  I'd  like  to  wish  you  a  safe  and  successful  journey.

Dainty Little Footprints Upon A Trail
An artist, Bleeding his heart into the canvas Carefully planning his masterpiece Dutifully paying attention to every detail. Emotionally drained, Forced to finish his work Grueling over an uninviting crowd Helpless to the impending backlash Inspired, the artist continues Just to prove his critics wrong Knowing that his work will be amazing Loving himself even more Meticulously painting his beautiful image Never letting stamina get to him Opening his mind to a grand illusion Presented to him by an transcendent figure Questioning if what he saw was true Reveling in the moment of it all Slowly, the artist comes to a finish Trapping the moment inside of his easel Unveiling to the crowd was his final test Vociferously, he explained his masterpiece When all of a sudden, the artist begins to run Xenophobia had stricken him You now know why most artists are obscure. Zealous fans always ruin everything.

this is for the queer kids who are taught their ABC's but not their L's, G's, B's and T's for the Russian government and the I.O.C who deny Russian queers their visibility to the people who call me ****** i wear your name-calling like a pink triangle stitched to my sleeve for the Harvey Milk's, the Christine Burns' and every queer in between to the allies who do more than say "your sexuality is okay with me" for the Jamaican trans* teen who was murdered needlessly to the television networks who portray LGBT individuals positively for the radical queers the POC queers the genderqueers the queers who have felt excluded this is for you for us this is a celebration and an ultimatum we are here we are queer & we will do more than survive.

*This is one of the racier "Memories" poems by the great Barry Hodges, my alter ego. It might well make you come involuntarily in your ****** How happy was I once with the wind in my hair Wandering o'er the dales with joyousness unmeasur'd, In the sweet long passed innocent days of platonic love When stolen gropes and kiss were to be treasured. But all good and true things come to a sad close And my poor first love lies in her grave so sorrowfully Having been crushed to death by a runaway steamroller Before I managed to go all the way quite thoroughly. What a waste of delightful teenage flesh was that Yet perhaps I had a narrow escape from the derangement Which might have been mine had our trysting Led to a semi-permanent matrimonial arrangement. For I recall one afternoon in the old ABC cinema In the delighful Yorkshire spa town of Harrogate, Sitting next to my gorgeous love in the back row, Exploring her not so very private parts on a hot date. How I cursed the management's niggardly folly In not showing a film with hot romantic blood But saving pathetic pennies by putting on Daffy ******** Duck and Elmer ******* Fudd. But yet I perserved with my digital explorations Unaware that the throbs my fingers felt were no dream But darling Elsie laughing like a proverbial drain At Daffy's hilarious anatine adventures on-screen. 'Twas then I began to wonder about the viscous liquid I had hitherto imagined was Elsie's lovejuice flowing *(dear, dear reader, cease your perusal of my tale forthwith if you are of a nervous disposition or prone to food up-throwing)*. It was only a careful examination of my sopping knuckles In the dimly lit gents after old Daffy's film was done and dusted Which revealed that my dearly beloved had leaked Big time out of both ends, leaving my fingers well encrusted. O to think that, but for Daffy, I might have been lumbered With a different kind of bird for whom double incontinence Was a way of life (thus, the fatal steamroller she encountered The very next day was a blessing from kindly Providence).

A Kiss, stolen in secret. Away, from prying eyes. Before The the school Bell rang. Can't You see the memories Concealed behind my eyes? Do You even care Don't you even see my tears? Eventually They say I will forget. Even though I know I never will. Fore Your smell still lingers on my clothes. Forever etched into my brain. Going Round and round my head, Got to forget your kiss. Help Me move on and Hold my head up high. It Simply does no good to remember. I swear I'm going mad. Just The way you say my name. Jynn... Like it's beautiful. **** Me before I fall too deeply addicted to your Kiss, so sweet and soft. Love The age old Lie, told by every member of your kind. Maybe I can do this on My own, free myself from you. Never Did I think I'd Need you this much. Only Boy to ever truly Own my heart. Probably the most Painful of any hurt. Quiet Tears as loud and Obnoxious as a car alarm. Running Away from my fears. Ripping you from my life. Stop Trying to Stay, It only makes it harder. Today Is the day I finally Tear away from the life I hate. Unfortunately,   My heart and brain Unanimously decided that life was caused by you. Very Well, If you agree. This Vacancy in my life is not for you. Won't You let me die? Why must you torture me so? eX-treme Heartache, I eX-alted you so. You, The love of my life. un- Yielding rollar coaster, just wont stop. Zombie Of my former self, drained of Zest, and life.

ABC Poem (Girls Names)
A best friend Be's the best he Can ever be Don't take it for granted that Everything goodll come if Fate allows it To fourth and search Hither until It knocks your head Just about right Know your enemies Love your friends Many are lost through Naysaying and slandering Obviously those types of People will realise Queens and Kings will be Recrowned, killed and Sanctioned against Through hatred and anger Unless a person who Verbs his way through Wards of hospitals where Xenophobia is lost while You sit like a caged animal in a ZOO!

*** for your show..
A soft flutter in the top of the trees Beauty as the flowers are swarm by bees Counting the cracks on the crooked ground Dodging the birds as I spin around Every sound slowly comes alive Frantically the squirrels dig up nuts they use to survive Gorgeous patches of fine green grass Hastily jumping to avoid the broken glass I take in the smell of the spring Just listening to the birds sing Kind eyes from passing friends Loving embraces you never want to end Meeting the soft sunrays with a warm smile Never closing my eyes, just watching the sun a while Over the hill I quietly lay Patiently waiting for the vanishing sunrays Quiter the world seems to fall Resting their heads in the treetops so tall Slowly the sun sinks lower Towering for a minute the sun grows slower Until it fades into dark blue skies Vanishing before my green watching eyes When the last glimpse of the golden globe disappears X-rays of the stars fall leering Zenith well passed in the open grass of the clearing

ABC poem ( The Sun)
Seven score and eleven years after the Emancipation Proclamation; I'd like to thank my community for finally acknowledging his memory.   Wanting to view historical document written by Rev. Martin Luther King, logged on and took a virtual trip to our ever expanding National Archives. His views on day of historic speech, "Heartwarming to see this marvelous, gigantic group of people here from all over the nation to give witness." I'm giving credit to ABC news for being allowed to hear the man's words from his own mouth without having to read them in black and white. There's no argument in regards to race differences and that we the people, have miles to go before we are at similar mindset in climate of opinion. Spotlight should shine brightly on how far we've come as we the people, away with all the negatives of no hopes of ever achieving racial harmony. If MLK were alive today he'd see many positive changes and would see his dream is still alive and well though we have miles to journey's end. Yes, Dr. Martin Luther King, you are appreciated as we honor your day. I have many reasons to thank you and all who paid the ultimate sacrifice. My children are allowed to attend any public school they wish without fear. I can now sit in the front of the bus without fear of arrest or a mob beating.   There are no laws preventing me from front door entry of public buildings. Thanks so much! I'm free to date or marry any person of any race I choose. The list above is just a small sampling of all the changes his life evoked. I'm thankful he was gifted to our planet in period of time he was needed. He is missed by the planet and those of us who are grateful that he existed. Dr. Martin Luther King was true Visionary with foresight to see great things.

All I Ever Needed to Know, I Learned in Kindergarten.
Good morning, class!  I am your substitute teacher, and I will be teaching you your ABC’s today.  Let’s not waste time and just dive right in! A is for Anxiety. That’s that feeling you get when you go to recess and see the bullies waiting for you on the playground. B is for *******  If you don’t know what that means, that’s when your daddy abandons you before he even gave you a chance.   C is for Cranky.  That’s what I feel right now because I had to get up early today to come in here to teach you brats your alphabet, and I’m getting paid **** for it.   D is for Dog.  Mine died, and if you have one, yours will eventually die too.   That’s another D word for ya.   E is for Empty.  Empty hearts.  Empty souls.  Empty stares.  Empty lives.   F is for Friends.  Friends will **** all over you. G is for Girlfriends.  They’ll rip out your heart and stomp all over it. H is for Hell.  It’s the world we live in. I is for Idiot.  Which is what you are if you ask a question. J is for *******  Which is another term for donkey – another D word. K is for Knife.   L is for Love.  Your parents will tell you they love you, but they don’t mean it. M is for Money.  If you want to make a lot of it when you grow up, deal drugs. N is for Neglect.  That means when your parents ignore you cause they’re too busy with their pretentious jobs and their extramarital affairs.  If you don’t know what that means, don’t worry.  Time will teach you.   O is for Optimistic.  Stay positive – just not HIV-positive. P is for **********  Judging by the intelligence level of this class, that is a bright career opportunity for several of you. Q is for Queasy.  Which is what you feel when you are hungover. R is for Respect.  You don’t earn it.  You take it. S is for Secrets that no one will ever keep. T is for Tranquilizer.  I have one waiting for me for when I get home tonight. U is for Ugly.  That’s adolescence. V is for…   Only girls have them. W is for Wood Chuck.  How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood? X is for Xenophobic.   That’s what you will all grow up to be because your mom taught you to never talk to strangers. Y is for Yes.  That's what you have to say to everyone to get anywhere in life.

"A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z" A- anhin ang pag-ibig mo kung mag-isa ka nalang lumalaban? B- initiwan na niya ang pangako ng walang hanggan. C- are, meron ba siya nito? Pinaramdam ba niya ito sa'yo? D- arating sa puntong makakamoveon ka rin. E- wan ko sa'yo ba't ka pa nagpapakatanga. F- unny, dahil sa sense of humor niya nahulog ka. G- inawa mo na ang lahat pero hindi pa rin sapat. H- inigit na niya ng tuluyan ang pagmamahal na itinarak niya sa puso mo kaya masyadong masakit ang nadarama mo. I- iwan ka man ng lahat sa mundo, subalit ang Panginoon ay laging nariyan para sa'yo. J- ust cry. Dapat **** ilabas yan at huwag kimkimin. K- ahit anong mangyari may nagmamahal sa'yo; pamilya mo at si Lord. L- ahat ng sakit at hapdi na iyong natatamasa ay may hangganan. M- aging matatag kang harapin ang pagsubok ng pag-ibig. N- aisin **** huwag tangayin sa baha na gawa ng iyong emosyon. Lumaban ka.\ O- nly you. Wag kang maniwala. Hindi ka nag-iisa. P- atunayan mo na hindi siya kawalan. Na kaya mo kahit wala siya sa tabi mo. Q- ueen, ikaw raw kasi ang reyna ng mundo niya pero salawahan siya. May Emperatress pa palang nauna na mas mataas pa sa'yo at mas mahalaga. R- espeto, kung meron siya nito, seryoso siya sa iyo. S- a tingin mo minahal ka talaga niya? T- iwala lang, wag umasa. U- nawain mo sana na pag pumasok ka sa isang relasyon hindi ka naglalaro lamang. Unawain mo na sa pagmamahal hindi puro ligaya lamang. V- ase, yan ang turing niya sa iyo. Nilagyan ka lang ng bulaklak pero hindi pinapalitan ng tubig hanggang sa nalanta ka sa puso niya, in short sa simula ka lang niya minahal pero kalaunan wala na siyang pakialam. W- ag ka nang magpakatanga next time. Wag paulit-ulit kasi pag nasaktan ka nakakasawa na rin minsan pakinggan ang salitang "ayoko na" pero ang totoo, tanga ka pa rin sa susunod na pag-ibig mo. X- ylophone. Parang paulit-ulit na pinatugtog ang puso mo at pinupokpok kaya masyadong masakit para sa'yo at paulit-ulit **** mararamdaman ang tugtog ng hapdi at kirot na dulot ng pag-ibig. Y- ung pangako niya sa'yo balang araw tatawanan mo na lang. Z- ipper your heart kapag nakamove on ka na. Muli itong magbubukas sa taong... muling mananamasa at mananakit sa puso mo este magmamahal pala sa'yo hanggang sa iyong pagtanda. Now you know your ABC Let's play words And sing with me.
