"hyped" poems
The king had a terrific *** The *** ran a race & won it! The media glorified it and put, 'The King's *** Won The Race!' The king felt embarrassed, He gave his *** to the queen. The media again hyped it and put, 'A Royal Exchange: The Queen Has The Best *** In The Kingdom!' The royal family felt frustrated & flustered, They decided to do away with the *** now. The Queen's *** which earlier was the King's *** was abandoned in the forest, The royalty felt at ease now. But the media hyped it too! ***THE ROYAL *** GOES WILD!!!***

I pity anyone visiting us with A language besides English; Who tries to understand the words We like to use with relish. We seem to say so many words Just to keep our lips busy. It occurs to me the so much of it Has never graced a dictionary. Upscaling, downsizing Offloading the whole magilla The whole nine yards, bottom liine The big honcho, the whole enchilada I was completely plussed and then I had my self a hissy fit I didn't know I had a flabber, 'Til someone went and gasted it. Hanging out, kicking back Into myself and whatever ***** it, man. I am like, wow. And y'know, yodda yodda yodda. Some mean kinda fudpucker Betcher bippees, yabba dabba doo. Mazoomas and headlights, Totally hyped megabitch, too. Talkin' about 'sup bro Stufflike windas and winders. Jammin and gittin widdit And sumpinbout pillas and pillers. So, I goes and he goes, And I'm all jazzed and by golly. It really rocks, rad to the max Get down to some serious party. Sixes an sevens, p's and q's What's your point? Get real! It's pretty much a ****** So, what's the big deal? Too much, I mean it's tough, And stuff, and really far out, man. Twenty three skiddo old bean. Just a flash in the pan. It ***** It blows, It bites, big time A wicked righteous mindfuck. Get jiggy with it. Kiss my crank; Slob my **** Lord Love-a-duck.

BAD RAP
If my life were a movie it would be one of those films that gets hyped up to no end because I’m one of those kids with the rough childhood who just wants to make it When in reality it’s just a less action packed but just as dark dc movie My story has also been confused with a marvel movie since the protagonist is me And i can't help but cut my overbearing traumatic tragedies with self deprecating comedies But my life to me feels more like an edgar wright movie where the action isn’t as exciting as The fact that I was able to get out of bed this morning And my day to day reality will forever feel like a motion blur of edited out negative emotion I think Maybe my life could be a wes anderson movie stuck in one color palette for the rest of my eternity And my maturity tends to overwhelm me my journey is like an anderson movie because i tend to create a world around me Taking time to shape my own protected reality so that the outside world can’t hurt inside me If im being honest though i want my life to be a spielberg movie that grabs attention of all ages coming from all sorts of places I want to spin my truths into his fantastic fantasies where no one equates my past with me But at the same time I want my life to be a blast from the past john hughes movie where i find a way to stop my past from haunting me And everything ends up okay at the end of the day because my minds overbearing insecurities No longer have control over me Now i see that in actuality other peoples movies are just too much for who i truly want to be and how my trauma impacts me I mean between my all of those boring biographies and my abundance of favorite movies I’d want my life’s movie to be full of images depicting my fondest memories and all my angsty gen z tendencies If my life were a movie i’d make it about how I am, or was, or am going to be If my life were a movie I’d make it about me

Watching the media, all hyped Due to their own accord Pushing us forward Helping us to goard Upon the sins we so readily devour All within this 11th hour Hearing TV tell us to care About all these material things Never telling us quite how To deal with the emptiness this brings The greed it creates all but devours Then jealousy soon flowers Everyday our fascination grows Within this world we live And every day our lives compact To where we cease to give To those around us, that become devoured We stand still, such the coward Violence, agony, death and despair Climb up the ranks Feeding the greed and jealousy Gee, Thanks! Yet we are still fascinated, devouring Their celebrities powering All these empty thoughts we need to think Which force our hearts to sink We need to get back to what is to give And remember what is like to live As a community © September 25, 2009 Deanna Repose Repoosted from: blog.deannarepose.com

it’s simply awesome how much energy is spent to document the newness of the news no matter how repetitive may be the words of the reporters the hype needs to be built no matter whether right or stilted driven by fear the topic might be wilted a minute later and half an hour later you hear the same with minor variations adorned with various speculations so that the viewers may get the illusion it’s NEW – though it is old, and just repetitive an endless loop of hyped-up trivialities of who did what and when and why maybe with whom or not makes you aware that even new banalities rarely include what really matters to the majority of people on this globe

the newness of news
Browsing best of craigslist while my brother blasts his music, but it's okay because it's better than the Christian rock I have to listen to from another roommates room. The house is chaos and I live in this world, it ***** me in and spits me back. It affects my personal relationship with the outside world, people come on it and get trapped in the time warp. There is no other reality, and outside of this house no one knows, what goes on inside. My basement room is dark, cave like, and I squint my eyes as I write this because the Christmas lights that were given to gleam over my head and make the space around me pink. I look in the corner of my eye, and there is my pathetic lamp that doesn't really even light the corner. All of this I accept, I even become accustomed to the lack of light. You ever google “roommates that are douches” or “nightmare roommates”?...that sounds about right, right? Everything listed is very apparent in this house. We all are just living together, separated and oddly together. Getting high, getting low and getting all hyped up and eventually in each others faces, struggling to not let go and make it crazy, because we all came from crazy and we're currently battling the current monsters that live inside our head. Some of us have diagnosis, while others obsessively google their symptoms, thinking up illnesses, while others have true deadly illnesses and trying to wash away the days without poisoning ourselves. Poison feels good when it comes down, it's as if you are doing something bad to your body but it feels so good, and eventually you fall into a mood, whether it be anxiety or true following bliss you know that this is within your body and it is something you have come to accept.

I finally took the sweatshirt out of my car It smells like you Hotel linen suffocating my senses And for a moment I'm lost Even though we're not great together You still run through my mind too often The quiet nights in your dorm room Walking along the beach together Me making jokes in the haunted house to calm your anxiety Talking to goats at the pumpkin farm Even getting hyped while playing video games You are everywhere And I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss you It's so conflicting because I know we were unhappy at the end But maybe it could've worked out If I tried a little harder Instead of just giving up But I didn't know where it would go And it wasn't healthy anymore You wanted forever and I wasn't sure I could give you that I'm trying so hard to live in the moment these days Which is hard when I can't stop thinking about you But I hope you're doing ok

I'm Not as Heartless as You Think I Am
Coming home, I feel I’m a fan on the stage of an amped up rock show in front of a hyped up crowd, about to dive – will you promise to catch me before my jump turns into a fall? Carry me over your wavelike faces, your hands holding me, floating me over to the dance floor with you all.

I don't feel the way I had imagined I would feel by the time I had gotten here Paper scraps littering a lengthy path An ivory album half filled to the gills Most pages just blips and blackouts A garden of blooming disappointments I hyped up the experience too much Everything feels so terribly lack luster Now I'm almost always half asleep And the days feel like I pressed repeat I don't feel the way I had imagined Though times have been much worse And I'm alright with seeing the sunrise The boredom is better than binging Waking in such a painful panic But I've kept the promise this time

"Tadpoles and Dragons" Scared a lil, fear full a lil, I'm telling myself to try a lil I wouldn't know the difference if I lie a lil But first I'll curse Eat dinner quench my thirst Wash my flesh then cry a lil Walk it off Man up and face the mirror flex the guns then sigh a lil Strong and steady Game face on I'm ready Breath in deep wave goodbye a lil Tell ya'll I love you in case I die a lil Hear my theme song as they chant my name time for some hope time for some change. I'm all hyped up I'm gone though I ask why a lil The next time we meet I'm gonna fly a lil. Alexis J. Meighan

All it takes is a moment, And all my happiness can fall into despair. In just a split second, I can go from having the best day ever, To just another day of the week. Equally though, I can slip from an anxiety attack, Straight into euphoric insanity. But it isn't all causeless. Yet the effects shouldn't be of such a great intensity. It's like my emotions are hyped up on steroids, And I can't keep them stable for long, Before they return to this up and down, Roller coaster ride called my life.

Stone hall with concrete walls Perched with colours of the crown Ripped down for united minds Dole queue patriots hyped with delusions of grandeur Camped upon corners, moaning ****** ****** Laying claim to title of white line champions Still the law sheath batons Sharing guarded desire With debased brethren So united the occupied stand Defying foreign lords who oppress ancestral land Awaiting the day the crown falls defiled And high flies the green, white and gold.

Never mind the protests
I avoid writing poems about flowers I don’t need to tell you that roses Bright, blood red, placed perfectly atop a broccoli-green vine, Existing solely for the purpose of atheistic pleasure Is something that is beautiful Put a white background behind anything and it becomes beautiful Flowers are more than a hyped-up beauty pageant queen that those old white women grow to fill their voids with They sometimes manage to grow in my neighborhood too Once prominent Victorian homes now squalid and neglected Weathered wood, dirt embedded in the sea-foam green, navy blue, eggshell white paint they were once coated with Trash thrown in front of their faces Like their appalling forms granted validity for those who passed by to toss their gum wrappers, soda cans, and cigarettes without hesitation It’s an age-old tale Ugly things deserve ugly treatment I’ll always spot a savage grove of mutt flowers Amongst the trash cans and recycle bins Struggling to make their way to the surface of these rejected homes Acknowledging them, coddling them, interweaving themselves along their battered walls Ignorant to their repugnancy Eager to decorate and give them an evanescent glow Sad too, Sad they didn’t grow in front of some rich family’s home Where they would’ve been given weekly haircuts and fertilizer containing only the best **** on the market They wilt a little They have no direction, No will to live or to die They exist and sit there until a bike runs them over And takes them out in one swoop Or until those stray dogs **** and **** on them until their weak Frames fall staunchly onto the grave sidewalk Exquisite wild lepers, You do more for society than I ever could You’ll sit there with a dutiful posture Harboring old McDonald French Fry boxes Eating the sewer-infested dirt that you laboriously grew from Constantly breathing air swarmed with smog Beautiful because, Despite it all, You don’t hate them You’ll peek at me through your prison of trash and give me a flash of your purple and blue skin And My eyes feel your love and serenity And for a moment, The world is nothing but a kaleidoscope of warm skin and heartbeats

I avoid writing poems about flowers I don’t need to tell you that roses Bright, blood red, placed perfectly atop a broccoli-green vine, Existing solely for the purpose of atheistic pleasure Is something that is beautiful Put a white background behind anything and it becomes beautiful Flowers are more than a hyped-up beauty pageant queen that those old white women grow to fill their voids with They sometimes manage to grow in my neighborhood too Once prominent Victorian homes now squalid and neglected Weathered wood, dirt embedded in the sea-foam green, navy blue, eggshell white paint they were once coated with Trash thrown in front of their faces Like their appalling forms granted validity for those who passed by to toss their gum wrappers, soda cans, and cigarettes without hesitation It’s an age-old tale Ugly things deserve ugly treatment I’ll always spot a savage grove of mutt flowers Amongst the trash cans and recycle bins Struggling to make their way to the surface of these rejected homes Acknowledging them, coddling them, interweaving themselves along their battered walls Ignorant to their repugnancy Eager to decorate and give them an evanescent glow Sad too, Sad they didn’t grow in front of some rich family’s home Where they would’ve been given weekly haircuts and fertilizer containing only the best **** on the market They wilt a little They have no direction, No will to live or to die They exist and sit there until a bike runs them over And takes them out in one swoop Or until those stray dogs **** and **** on them until their weak Frames fall staunchly onto the grave sidewalk Exquisite wild lepers, You do more for society than I ever could You’ll sit there with a dutiful posture Harboring old McDonald French Fry boxes Eating the sewer-infested dirt that you laboriously grew from Constantly breathing air swarmed with smog Beautiful because, Despite it all, You don’t hate them You’ll peek at me through your prison of trash and give me a flash of your purple and blue skin And My eyes feel your love and serenity And for a moment, The world is nothing but a kaleidoscope of warm skin and heartbeats

My coffee was bland, but I was a dreamer. I crafted my plan like a caffeine-hyped schemer. To walk to the cabinet, lock in like a magnet, On the oversized can full of cheap powdered creamer

Ode To Coffee
It’s New Year’s Eve. Cue the colorful ads all around the neighborhood, on park benches and random building pillars, and the commercials of that big city countdown in the middle of town. Cold winter snowflakes still on palms of those trudging through the layers of snow on the streets. The day stretches into the night as half the city prepares for that special midnight moment. Lipsticks applied and makeup spilled, dresses snatched from the stores and shoes grabbed from their shelves. As the hour draws near, everyone is gathered, waiting for the party to begin. Lights are turned up, adrenaline is rushed, people are hyped and lives are being restored in their dead bodies. Cheerful voices of the hosts fill the air, and a band plays in the background. Instruments contributing to the life of the party. 11:59 P.M. Timers are set and cameras are ready. 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2… 1! Sky flowers cover the stars in a burst of sparks, and the sound of cameras snapping photos can be heard among the crying and screaming. Lips are locked, embraces are warm and photos are Instragram-ed. The night is young and hearts are joyful. Such is the beauty of this one night. (lunarlullubies)

New Year's Eve
Slam! Here I am, look, listen. Keep your eyes closed, your mind open, Every night the same dream, so hyped up on caffeine you can’t Think- Stop and think about what’s going on. Make it through each day just hazing barely coping hardly hoping Remember please the door’s wide open. Breathe a little more, take another breath When you can all but keep from screaming this pain just seeming like You can never stop and think about what’s going on. Take a chance to cheat your death, skip the **** Make your own choices with each and every breath. Don’t follow the lines, break free of the common addiction. The affliction is ours, no diction in our words to calm the friction; Medicated dreams, sedated lives what we live for, but faded. Huffing your cure, puffing you up, that doesn’t make you tough. It makes you weak. To those people who can’t feel their heart beating, their breath fleeting, Who fight with all their might through each day not knowing if they still have the will to resist the pill; To those who haven’t found their voice, who have but are not heard - are not blessed with the word- Who fail even on their Third try. I speak for you; hear my voice, know that you can live through anything, be anything, say anything. To those who say, I’m not anything- you are something, to some you are everything, And nothing can take that away from you. So drop the pills, harden your wills and stand strong! So they put you down? Don’t lay defeated on the ground, stand up! So yell, sing, be loud and let your message ring from ear to ear, mind to mind, heart to heart and Make your start. Don’t be just somebody, Be you.

She stared blankly at the computer screen With its flickering screen of judgement. What are you looking at? Silence. A screensaver. Enough of that sass. It was finally complete. Her hair wearing its disheveled frizz like a badge of honor From all-night typing And two pots of coffee Where her comb-fingers turned the smoothness of her hair Into a stress-reliever As she muttered madly to herself (But quietly, so as not to wake the roommates Who slumbered in their honey chambers Away from the heart of her hive of activity). She had buzzed all night On a caffeine-high That made her hands tremble Her muscles ache And her eyes hate her. And now With too much to do And a limited time to do it in She had to keep buzzing. Coffee *** number three was carefully stored In a travel mug That she clutched to her clavicle Just to keep the warmth that much closer to her hyped-up heart. She made her stops at offices and libraries Retrieving promised letters And printing the labors of her night intensive Before she could finally deposit it Behind the glass windows Of the scholarship office. This is too much work for less-than-ideal odds. But she had no time to dwell On the gamble she had made And paid in hours of wakefulness And the inked-up peelings from tree corpses. She rushed from class to class Where she tried to speak in coherent sentences, To dance with sharp choreography, And to contribute to society But her body hated her Because she had betrayed it And deprived it of the only thing that it truly loved in this world: Sleep. It would have its vengeance. It would have its vengeance when she was old, creaky, and could no longer move. But for now, her body made do with small rebellions To demonstrate its displeasure. Sentences were not sentences And every turn, leap, and twist Made her think longingly of sleep. And her body laughed. But at long last, The sun set The girl slept And then the sun rose. And this continued to happen Many times. It rose and it set It rose and it set It rose and it set Until she had forgotten And her body had forgiven The sleepless night.

In the cloak of the night night....so barbarous and still still many eyes presume to lurk lurk for the tumultuous squeal. Such a cry of vulnerability vulnerability of lonely weakness weakness....lures unjust evil evil within a woeful bleakness. Deep from the African bush bush that conceals a enemy enemy bearing a crucial task task to invade the vicinity. The smell of blood entices entices the senses of hunters hunters after a marred victim victim freed by rams and bunters. From one side to another another enemy attacks hard hard to escape such an attack attack of a overwhelming bombard. Action packed view from afar afar from finely tuned sight sight of a harsh...epic struggle struggle of prey in a losing fight. Time passes and the fight proceeds proceeds to take upon a big turn turn of some unexpected events events the enemy has yet to learn learn of the victim's inner strength strength to overcome the worst worst case scenario in the midst midst of ****** wounds at burst. As the distant view closes in in what shows as such a mess mess which contains a lioness lioness in a battle of distress. Her attackers are now revealed revealed to be a clan of hyena's hyena's that are hunger-crazed crazed in Serengetti's hyped arena. They nip and pick at her her will only grows stronger stronger than she's ever witnessed witnessed her stamina bears longer longer than her many foes foes she begin to bring down down one by one they fall fall to her paws upon the ground.

Milk for meat Hype for hope Lies for love Ashes for beauty And yet we all said "amen" Puppet master Thy humble puppets, enthralled ...and we have anointed you; To tell us ...   What we want to hear   What we want to read    What we want to watch You have execute thy duties; Tickling our ears to perfection, With feathers, dipped in ****** Our souls; numbed   our hearts; tangled in lies. The parade The confetti The Loyalist An ovation; To he who sits lonely, on his throne; Feeding our emotions, In your own emptiness. Sensationalism Emotional Temporarily Seasonal Hypnotized Roller coaster ride... We are dead, like the last generation.
