"ditsy" poems
Red, edifying & ditsy, Wine illuminated names -- eclectic, & gypsy. Yippee persons; So yawned Night. I gathered her, too Tipsy, I paused & smoked young Faith, aimed it too high And next dared The hour escape. Oscar sounded clear and round.

Red Wine Gypsy Night, Tipsy Faith, and the Oscar
I knocked my knee on the rod under the table. I put a runner in my tights. I licked my finger to wash the wound clean. It stung for only a second. Then it was as if it never happened. The ditsy waitress with the blonde bun and bubblegum was annoying me with the way she wouldn't pick up her feet. She had a stupid Chinese tattoo on her wrist, and like most of the world she thought she could use a band aid as a cover up, but nothing that obvious stays hidden that long without being noticed. And to top it all off, they burnt my tuna melt. I got weird looks from people who passed, catching the 50 Shades of Grey title on my book, disgusted and pondering why I would ever hold it up in a family restaurant. The black man was eyeing me up in the corner. The lady with the pink lipstick in her teeth thought I was erratic and disturbed. The businessman thought it was merely for attention, Well jokes on them, I did it just to **** them off. That's when I looked over at you, You were eating breakfast and a ****** cup of coffee. It was 4 in the afternoon. I could see your Captain America underpants creeping out of your jeans without a belt. I could see your eyes judging the newspaper headlines. You seemed almost as unhappy as me. So I went over and asked if you dropped the pen I found in my pocket, and when you didn't even look up at me to respond I told you it was just a poor excuse to talk to you. "I respect that," you said between bites of your omelet. You glanced up at me for only a moment, blue eyes, **** chin probably expecting me to leave after the prolonged silence, but I sat there unchanged, I don't really pick up on social cues. "You're pretty hot." I guess neither do you. I smiled something creepy, because I don't do it that often, You didn't seem to mind. Within two minutes you had me laughing, saying stuff too loud, and it was the first time that I think I actually saw myself, and I don't really even know you but somehow, insanely it feels like I already do.

Captain America (50 Shades of Tuna)

she dresses down during the day, a pair of swearpants and an oversized flannel, her soft, curly locks bouncing in a high ponytail. she's seen as the class hippie, an activist and a seemingly air headed girl. but what people don't know, is that this girl is the top of her class. she's a ditsy, fun girl by day, and a baby in lace for her lover by night.

ANAL-RETENTIVE (Pea-Brains & Fecal-Matters) There’s obvious precautions For a ditsy-twerk’s ‘bottoming’   Cleanliness is the foremost-thing Fore & aft, as a sailor might put-it Don’t put that ****** away, just yet When the Fleets in & the play’s the thing, be smart & cautionary & clean May end-up with a nasty sphincter Where anyone would rather-not like to sit upon, either, ever, & never An oz. of precaution is worth a lb. of cure & the cure might-be a worst disaster than ever it’s antidote — Ray Laccetti

can't get a hit, I'm down for a trip, Wasnt going to publish this terrible
Miss Yon said,         Relax and just let it all out,          don't worry edit later.          Become the words on the paper,          and then it will be great.         Miss Yon Said The fall is thick but, winter is thicker. In those months of thickness, in my house, with blurry figures and smiling faces, I blow on a cake with sixteen candles. Yet I do not know where I am. A gypsy of sorts. A house is not necessarily always a home. And my heat is lost to a room, with nothing to hold in it. Should my father's home be a more suitable location? but she loves me Should my mother’s home hold more warmth? but he loves me To some their homes are like the sun providing comfort and warmth. But to others like me, our home is but an iceberg, melting. m    e      l        t         i           n               g gone. You know it's not easy to read a compass lacking north. Constantly wondering where you're headed is not fun. My best dish is logic, served cold. I wake up half dead, or alive, to things easily confused. But being cold is bitter, stiff, I am unbreakable. I am what I experience, I am what I see, I am who I speak to. I am cold. I am unsure. To others who underestimate me, I am ditsy, I am just a blonde, I am warm, I am funny, not smart. not anything that could be valued. not someone productive. Identity is a crisis and we are all in it.

Hello Pop, You said you liked a good story. I'm no good at tellen stories, coz you were always the one that told'em and I was always the one that listened but, I got one now. Not a nice one. None'a that feel good **** you see on TV. But, it's a story and I owe you one. It's about you, the bits you missed, and me: the not so good for a so called 'good kid'. Not that many called me that But, then you went and did. Made me think I couldn't be so bad. Yet here I am. Throwin stone's when I've got no one to hit. Too bored to eat or sleep, just fucken spit. Wishen that great god gave me someone to hit. I'm a sick girl, ya know. That's what they tell me. Sick compared to those straight kids - the pride of Glory Spring. "Glory to God!" they all fucken sing and even me who can’t speak good can still recite that invisible, unbearable ditsy dimpled **** He was your favourite story and everyone elses, after all. Vicar Roy made sure of that. Vicar Roy. With his crinkly eyes his toothy grin the way he wouldn't blink when you challenged him. God while god was hiding from the mess he made, but God was doin’ nothen for me. Ma saw that before you could. She wanted me out, She wanted me taken to a real city so they could study my head, the way it worked. The way my words never came just a crooked grin. But, even when the crayons became weapons and the kittens went missen The Vicar went and blessed me the same way. Glory Spring, with its neat little rows of cottages and cabbage gardens, so evenly cut. Soft colours, bright greens. So good, good, good. Then I came along. Rabid, urban wild itchen for a stomach slit goin' "Guts for you" after "Treat or trick?" setten haystacks on fire tryen to find the pin only to drop it on purpose. Are you scared of me, Pa? I think even God is scared of what he created. That's why we never see him, but I'm here now Pa. You can't hide from me and I gotta story of why you don't gotta no more.

Overdose of stimuli Parade of light in the sky Music falls, silence The mer-men raise their tridents      -in the air Selene wailed, in her cot      -the velvet bare The diamonds flown and caught. Drop your miniature bombs On Marys and Toms. Like school-boys, pulling your school-girls' hair. Flirt with death, dance a desperate dare. Douse Hell-fire in hemlock wine. You're blind with opium's ditsy shine. Wake and sadly find, the stars -still 'live.

Windsor knot
Look, look  This is her tray, her tray of ash  These here... They're her empty bottles of Jack  Over there is where she keeps the condoms. Stash of **** between the books.  If you look closely at the carpet you can see dried *****  White walls are now stained yellow,  Too many drunken gatherings.  But she's so young inside.  Mind of a ten year old With a body of a sixteen yer old woman.  Don't look now, but she's preparing herself to talk In her ditsy fake tone.  "I am like, so white trash. Do you love me yet?" Twirling bleached blonde hair pouting those lipstick drowned And collogen inflamed lips.  Seeing this ***** in her natural habitat Makes me wonder where her parents went wrong.

Documentry of a *****
I’m annoying and you hate me. I’m clingy and you hate me. My hair is frizzy and you hate me. I’m kind of ditsy and you hate me. I’m bad at cooking and you hate me. My clothes don’t match and you hate me. I don’t wear makeup and you hate me. My voice is high pitched and you hate me. I laugh too hard at your jokes and you hate me. I’m bad at spelling and you hate me. I type slowly and you hate me. I’m really weak and you hate me. I walk too fast and you hate me. I think too much and you hate me. I wish I could do something right So you wouldn’t hate me. But I can’t because you make my head all crazy I can’t think right when you’re sitting next to me. It may be that your smile is too bright when you’re sitting next to me. Or maybe I hear nothing but your voice when you’re sitting next to me. I see nothing but your face when you’re sitting next to me. I smell nothing but your shampoo when you’re sitting next to me. I can barely breathe when you’re sitting next to me. My heart hurts when you sit next to me. It really ***** when you sit next to me Because I just want to blurt “I love you you idiot.” But sadly, so very sadly, you hate me.

And you hate me.
It’s been established you aren’t mine. Yet that doesn’t stop that feeling when I get around you. Sweaty palms, shaky knees, blood red, goofy smile, ditsy. My heart beats fast when I talk to you. Its like we are standing still in time… The world around us is spinning around at the speed of light. At night there is a traffic jam in my head, Thinking of words I should have said… What if I would have kissed you then? What if I would have handed you my song book? What if I would have said that? Would that have changed any of this? If I see another chance, I won’t hesitate.

We want, what we can't have
See it's a strange thing, "self made men" It's the rage thing, "forbes front page t'ing" A majority that's pacing, voting for a one percent that in return enslaves them My girl used to laugh at my jokes now I'm broke and she ******* hates 'em I look for aspects of success and then I stage them   be sure to colour background facebook page 'em My rent doesn't reflect my wages that's inflation; that's what I get for living so close to the station In this pompous student city covered in glitter and these ditsy Corpus Christi ******* be getting quicker and quicker and quicker Don't know how they can afford the liquour pre-drinks before Ballare movin' on to something bigger If I see another site with student accommodation on the hoarding, I might as well go sell my **** Start ******* because I'll never make it in this town I'm one quarter brown and I don't speak Spanish born in Cranebridge, forced to watch others live lavish The tourist loves it but a local feels damaged

Complications of Development
Princess in my eyes, my little lady is my life, a smile that shines up my day. Seeing her blows the Grey clouds away. Shes ditsy, you ask her to look for something, 'CANT FIND IT' two seconds I look, its there on the ground. She is smarter than she looks, her imagination has no bounds, creative little madam, but like a hurricane when ideas pop out, tidy up your mess a sigh is heard coming out. There is no other than my little girl, shes my little princess who looks after her little brother and sister to make sure manners are said and two play hide and seek, ''FOUND YOU'' can be heard shouted out. Shes daddies girl, mummies shadow when we go out. I wouldn't be with out her shes my little princess with out a doubt.

My Little Princess
Hi I’m back and I’m - So cryptic. So embarrassing, but it feels so relieving. What’s funny is you’ll take a peak inside, feel mortified by what you see, but you’ll never see the full picture. It’s a lot but there’s no option other than to stay on the path and pick my feet up. I guess ill continue walking till I’m bruised and bleeding, teary eyed, barely breathing, satisfied with myself when all my demons are defeated. It’s misleading, people teach me love and pain and say they love me then deceive me? That’s demeaning, it’s been a nightmare lately and this lack of sleep is getting to me. Everything is getting to me. I’m sick of all the drug abusing, dumb excuses, acting like I’m ******* useless. ?Acting dummy, ditsy, clueless. All these lies that just abuse me. Look inside, you think I want to stay here much longer? Would you choose pain if you felt that your pain had provided you comfort? Because it’s easy and you’ve got a little food in the cupboard? That’s a tough one, huh. Yeah that’s what’s been my personal struggle. But lately I’ve been getting tired of these lack of views. The windowless prison walls, the being stupid - act confused. That’s weak as hell. Im finished with this and yes, I know I’ve said those words at least a million times. I’ve always meant it when I did, it’s been a treacherous climb. If any of y’all relate feel free to reach out some time. Life’s struggles don’t need to be a lonely experience. Everybody goes through things, and listen man I know that you’re hearing this. Just follow me, let’s put down our vices and take a walk. There’s no need to be fearing this.

Blanket the iris entrance where the light reflects our progress, dashing little punctuation clinging to its functions. Similar deeds are capable your form is nothing special kid, finding truth and anti keep the sword as closest ally. People will deceive and trick it's in their basest nature, sorta hard to be a saint when the devils your next door neighbor. The Girl looked kinda ditsy but her stare was firm for wear, she strolled into the nearest town and found a crier there. Foxily her lips announced, remember this and take account, our connection is a deep and dark, cherry tree with singing lark. Continued on to speak, of humans fickle, small and weak the mountains children gone from peak. As of now you are not ready, acceptance to the true of family. Passing me with grace and speed, I glanced a foreign Deity. Now It's really very fuzzy, she did leave rather quickly, my memory and sight of color, lack the proper imagery. How could this have happened? I seem to have forgotten, the beauty of a queen or greater, that Mushi Master, with eyes of wonder.

The Wolf Child That Was Given A Gift Of Chance
I see you A man wrought with tears of glass Walking fraught with judgments fast And a heart that secretly overflows I see you A woman scorned by ditsy destiny Wrangling towards her own entity And a heart that cries in the shadows I see you A child troubled by pleasured flights Of fantasies, parental pain, unsteady sighs And a heart that reigns in blows I see you All of you Like I see me in the dark of doubt Hours going on a jaunt with clouds Streaming through Like flocks of crows I will see you All of you In pictures daintily kept Swimming in boxes of crazy unkempt Until thoughts take off With this mind windswept

YOU ARE GONE I gave no reason to complain I gave away no scerets of yours I gave it all up and stuck on But all you did was walk away And let all my efforts go in vain All i asked was for you to give a Little bit of love A little bit of your time A little bit of your smile But you said nothing when i asked, Why you had not called in a while Gripping to that part of my memory Where forever was meant to be Where promises were meant to be kept Where we would plod together until we slept Silence, could never tear us apart Neither could the space I still try to think back, try to Figure out how this misery started In the first place. Holding on to the pieces of our memories My heart is clenched to your voice I keep going back to us Hoping one day there wont be any fuss My ditsy brain still hopes you would come Back to your senses Come back to us, come back to me Come back to that time where The mornings were all that was meant to be'

You Are Gone
I am tired of my race being degraded Because others have bought into their stereotypes Because you know what I know a ditsy Asian cheerleader, I also know an Asian girl on the Science team One part Times at a Chinese restaurant The other at the local grocery I know a black man who is kind and caring And he works at a bank I know a black man who thinks he’s entitled to my body With no job, because two hundred years ago My ancestor hit his with a whip I know a Mexican girl who was an anchor baby Her parents came here illegally and made a life for her They got their cards a little late, she rides horses on the side I also know a boy’s who’s parents went through all the right channels Both are jobless and he’s failing every class I know white kids who are dumber than a box of rocks Who think they’ll make a living off of video games and ball I know white kids who try so hard to rise above The ignorance of the past So stop degrading me for your ignorance Do not define me for the stereotype of my race And I will not define you for the stereotype of yours Race is not a definition Nor does it entitle you to a thing So none of this “reverse racism” crap Racism is racism No matter who it comes from So let me say again Race is not your definition Nor does it entitle you to anything

Racism, stereotypes, and ignorance
So what is it I’m feeling now With my skin aglow and heart aflutter I’ve never felt quite like this, about someone who wasn’t created by a writer This is a new experience One I’m scared to embrace Change can have two outcomes I don’t want to end up a charity case I think I’d rather stick to my poems Than chance a broken heart Words have been enough thus far Why should I break us apart? I’m terrified of becoming One of those ditsy, boy-crazed babes But I find my world is different Taken over by a brand new shade Maybe I’ll take the risk then What harm could it really do? Who knows, if I’m lucky Maybe he’ll like poems too

one thing then another, as all regular days really. graphs will show it, we can draw , we may discuss. if we wish, walk the graden play with spelling with punctuation. this is no disaster, word survival deleted. we have moved the line into a place of hedges, rural contemplation. they say it begins at home, that depends on belief. we eat off broken plates. titanic. sbm.

.. ditsy days ..
Sorry this is so long, I just wanted to lay the big problems out there I. Forgetting Why am I forgetting things when I’m only fifteen? Like, I get being ditsy, and forgetting minor things But this is different This causes me to have to make lists of things I can’t forget (But what if I forget something that needs to go on the Forget List?) And instead of practicing my dances Just once every week, like the rest of my team I have to practice every night Or I’ll forget And I can’t remember lyrics for the songs we have to sing So I have to sing my songs over and over Or I’ll forget I just don’t get it My memory is slipping and I’m only fifteen II. Anxious I can’t just sit in a car calmly Because when we are a car away from the car ahead It’s too close, we’re gonna crash And from that crash, I can imagine all the ways I will die If I get an F on this next test That F will stand for everything I’ll fail at life And from that F, I can imagine all the ways I will die stupid If I don’t talk in this conversation No one will like me And if I do talk they won’t like me either And from this do or do not, I can imagine all the ways I will die stupid and alone I don’t need a reason why, or how But I can imagine all the ways I will die III. Stressed I don’t want to go home Because my family is awful, and they don’t want me anyway So I don’t go home At least, I postpone it I add to the list of things to do Add show choir, add oral interpretation Add play, add study buddy, add random projects Just to keep me out of the house And then add more complications Like, I’m bisexual, and have only come out to my friends Like, I’m pretty sure my sister is a gender specific homophobe Like, I have to figure out when to fit my dad’s house to my schedule Like, my dad has been awful to me here lately anyway Like, my friends all have drama Like, they always expect me to solve it Like, everyone thinks I am perfect Like, I think I need to convince them that they’re right It keeps adding And adding And adding some more IV. Sad I’m always sad Some mornings I wake up and can’t get out of bed Not because I can’t physically get out of bed It’s just that I can’t mentally get out of bed Because I’m always sad And I have all these happy moments That are all masked by this sadness And this sadness is all masked by this happy face Because the second someone even thinks for a minute That Perfect Reagan is broken Is the same second that the people who do want me, won’t want me Perfect Reagan is dysfunctional And cracked in many spots Because Perfect Reagan Is also Sad Reagan And she can’t escape it So she hides behind her domino And when that fails All she has to do is make a new one So yes, Perfect Reagan has happy moments But they are hidden away, overpowered, and shut down by sadness And the sadness is hidden away, overpowered, and shut down by the mask It just takes a while to get the false face to work Like painting red walls white The red is bound to bleed through Just like the sadness is bound to seep through
