"introduction" poems
ever since i was young, my gaze was drawn skyward. i could tell you the story of orion, and how to brush bernice's hair, before i could tell you that two plus two equals four. i know more about our vast universe, than i know about many of my friends. if you are not well acquainted with a pisces, let me give you a bit of an introduction: we are compassionate, imaginative, we adapt to whatever is thrown at us, and my personal favourite, we are unfalteringly loyal. however... we are full of self-hate, prone to laziness, we are escapists and horrendously easy to manipulate. i believe my horoscope today is complete ******** i do not feel utterly lovely, i know i will not score a date because no one feels for me romantically. i've nothing to flaunt. the horoscopes are saccharine lies, but, those traits? those are me. my soul is ancient, i feel the pain of struggles i have not faced, or rather, have not YET faced; i will split my soul in two i will break my bones i will give every drop of my blood i will breathe my last breath for those that i love. i spent two years of my life giving my heart and soul to a sagittarius. philosophical, adventurous. i admired him so. but his negatives-- inconsistent. overconfident. careless. he was a burning house. my mother, also a pisces, when all was said and done, told me to stay away from those sagittarius boys. they're dangerous for wary, fretful fish like us, who ask 'from what bridge?' when we are told to jump.

pisces (don't trust a sagittarius)
“I need to talk to you.” I hate these words. Because in a nanosecond I felt nervous; uneasiness filled my heart, afraid of what you are going to say & afraid of what will happen next. These words are just like the introduction of all the stories I have read. The stories that will always end up breaking my heart. “I don’t love you anymore.” There. I know that was the second line you are going to say. I expected that. But I guess even though how much you are prepared for the situation and how much you expect that that may cause your heartbreak, you cannot help not to be hurt so much. I did not know what to feel that time. It was a myriad emotion and inexplicable feelings, tears are falling down my face and at the same time my body suddenly feels weak. And I did not know what to do. It seems like yesterday since you told me that you will always be here when I needed you and that we are going to see together those places we are never going through. Your lips that tell me you really love me and your eyes that can tell it is true; that you are sincere. It has been just like a storm that came in and you are that storm that suddenly destroys my whole life when you left me. Now I finally understand why storms are named after people.

I finally understand why storms are named after people.
I'm in love with someone's daughter living in the shards of a broken home Cutting herself on two year-old letters These are moments she can't fake; reasons to feel alone So used to abuse, her tears start to shake I hold her close as her head starts to ache "I love you too much, so I can't let your heart break." She said, "I know you love me, but you've made a mistake." I never meant for anyone to be my pulse. I promise not to step on your feet if you teach me how to waltz.

1. Introduction-Carbon Dating
Introduction There they stood; keeping silent company. Yet of His face, wept searing electricity. To the lovers of life Here they stand, keeping silent company. No utterance dealt; yet clear in both their minds A single, brilliant truth: He longs for her with a savage delight. And it cries from every fibre, exalting! It is in the bearing of his eye; Rifling through her tender flesh In search of what he knows, from voices ages old, is there: That her heart will beat for no other as it beats for him right now; That in this moment, their Souls are bared To each other’s glares- naked, and blemished, and cowering- Yet his eyes remain fixed and sure: And for this, she loves him. For they have seen each other for the First of Times, Truly! And as with many the Ancient Laws unfurled, They stand aware, in lack of ever being taught, Aware with every atom, every straining tendon tight That their time's so very short. And so they drink… wordless To each other, to their youth, and to their bodies Shining like never before in the noonday air Garbed in cloth that snaps and furls around their waists. They imbibe with electric eyes, Eyes that are new born to this world of light And come out screaming, living, and sensitive For lack of ever being touched. They revel in their new-found joy; Pouring from Her figure, Of Her sleek, supple waist and the arch of her back, Bristling with delight, Of His strong hands and easy smile, That spoke of laughter scattered Across countless campfires of summers past. Their light does burn intense as any fire, And when their brimming anticipation Overspills its crimson chalice The silence shall SHATTER. To find peace again in each other's arms. Fumbling in sweet darkness- Of heavy lids, of earthy flesh, With lips embraced... In ravenous finality.

I must say your conversation is not interesting  . What  do I got to do so we could start kissing. The only thing I want to learn from is your name The only I want are your lips and hips. Let's skip this boring introduction . Lets us go to that lonesome chamber the one the service any guest and pretend it’s ours tonight. Let me just feel the weight your body . Place my hand any part you want me to touch you. I never been great in reading people minds . Sorry sometimes I get so lonely My mind gets a bit naughty All I got this lustful love to give Sometimes I confuse those words . In my raw desires I hide a long for affection Don’t blame me if I hug threw the night. Do you think I'm crazy ? Does my random mutter annoy you ? why are you teasing me Why are you keeping mouth silent Why are you licking you lips like that why do you keep looking at me with those eyes She said “shh no more talking” She was gone before delight

Just One night
Graceful curve of the flower enriched with mystery melting away any bubbling misery walking towards the beauty. (I'm looking to pull this special flower today.) Wait shall I praise the wonderous bloom with fragrant colors infused within me soon something to admire on a daily choosing between multiple types that look equally lovely. (I just want to love you.) The vanilla scent which never fades you rose from a bed of vibrant shades to hold and caress - in your walk stems artistic introduction keep me within your symmetrical seduction And in your radiance glimmers across the horizon and seas its in your nature to please while you tease - but i cant lie, your approach continues with ease. to compare your style with nature only makes sense. how lucky can one be to build a connection that's so intense! I pluck the fascinating petals of an orchid.

Petals of an Orchid
Dear Ashley,           Congratulations! Your parents decided to give you one of the most popular names of the 90s! This is your letter of introduction to being Ashley! However, be informed that your name will not only be just "Ashley". Since it's very common, non-Ashleys will need to differentiate between all of you. You may be nicknamed "Ashley #2" or "Ashley Last Name Initial". Preparing yourself for embarrassment is also essential. Instructors will call out your name, resulting in either you pointing to yourself mouthing, Me? or managing to chirp a "Yes?" in unison with three others, only to feel stupid when it's not you. With a name so stale and boring, you may grow a hatred for it. You will fall in love with unique signatures, wishing they were your own. Over and over again, you will fantasize about changing it. Keep in mind that other Ashleys feel the same. At least you can be thankful you weren't named Frances.                                                                                           Sincerely,                                                                                                   Ashley P.S. - Although, personalized key chains are easily accessible!

To Those Named "Ashley"
Irrelevancy is the only word with a clear definition Considering nowhere in the dictionary is no a synonym for yes. Your eyes pry at the binding of my thesaurus. By the time the letters that form the words that compose such literature become coherent; I find myself blindly illiterate. Ungrammatically correct. How persuasive is the introduction of negativity if the conclusion is positively wet.

Persuasive Essay
She may not have been your prototype teen or hiree. Or of the masses. Or herd. However, she did walk into a McDonald's approach the counter emit an esoteric exchange for help with the cashier and with knowing eyes the cashier directed her to the starting gate. Now with application in hand and blue ribbons in her eyes she was off to the horse races, nervousness riding on her shoulders. In my eyes, she was a longshot to win, where I could see her shoes falling off before the race started. And her imaginary jockey falling off her horse from laughing so hard, for she presented herself through the restaurant and a job interview with a Starbucks frappe, totally oblivious of her unwrapping. It would be like turning up for a Yankee's job in a Red Sox outfit. Who would do this? As the rubberneckers, I looked on. Incredulous. She took her seat at a vacant table carrying her youth awkward. Her looks of brown hair, eyes, and raw innocence complimentary. But those jeans, high risers, with holes in the knees with a white Bebe shirt that hugged her shape shouted trendy but not job interview. Oh, my. She continued the procession extracting info from her phone and filling out her application. No doubt with votive candles at her side and prayers on her lips. And perhaps blue ribbons awaiting. After all, this was her foot in the door. It was at this time I had an epiphany moment tears welling in my eyes as I slipped on hamburger choices and sipped on past life on a teether, totally oblivious, too. It was like looking in the mirror. Her youth and awkwardness and my growing decadence towards the light. When the manager came in and summoned her to the interview table, which was located in the dining room, I saw a little kitten purr inside of her, where her eyes nervously checked her surroundings. At first introduction, the reddening blush on her face and Adam's apple stood pronounced but her low voice was choked. Almost inaudible. As the manager put her calming hands into hers the light turned on all foreboding escaping. All misplaces and tense faces replaced with aces. This was a defining moment for her, as the golden arches braced her feet, making all the rubberneckers, me, proud. Logan Robertson 6/6/2018

Seduction
A fleshy thing— warm blood and organs and cells and appendages and mitochondria with cells who have cells who have cells. The introduction of a touch— a soft, palpable meeting— moved me and made me. A union of dissimilar atoms is moved as the object nears the skin. And when the two meet, to tell what happens next is to tell of the long history between one thing and another. A fleshy thing— warm blood and organs and something else too: many dissimilar atoms that could laugh and play with you.

Your introduction: a cow carcass in the fridge Your destruction: a black burned bridge Your construction: a fake, plastic heart for mom and a bomb into already destroyed lives. There is no apology or technology that can fix this war zone.

Dear John
When I was subjected to ragging by seniors, "It is illegal," I warned them beforehand, "The kid seems to have gone throughout, The itenary before boarding the college bus." A senior student was jeering at me. I must be appearing like a ******* "Don't worry, we will only ask for your introduction, consider it an interview. Please," said another senior. "Alright if you request," I replied and I waited for their questions. "Introduce yourself to us in few words." I was told by the other senior who had jeered. "My name is Atul Kaushal, thank you." I jeered back at the senior.

The Fresher Interview
The trellis of oak trees winked, captured my soul in a spinney, chalked whispers of free promises breathy like a silken shawl trailing Those wise men of old, withered skin of bark, tall and strong, waving their introduction. They bowed to me in free form, in humble escapism. Sun had stroked their warm palms, fed them sweet sap. To my left a stray leaf, rested amid invisibility, caught the air train, and spiralled free. Twizzled to the green painted rug basking under my cotton covered feet. Reaching out, it blew away, I chased the freedom fields. The brook teased it and set sail under the woody bridge, green from seasonal tears. Lost sight as it spun the space between us. The grass sprung its beginnings in full Spring, tall in parts, summer not yet wrapped and ready to visit us, much less invited to the summer ball where shadows are ten a penny, and sunshine bought on every street corner.  I am among spring devoured in daffodil eiderdowns, elbowing out the crocus, snowdrop chandeliers. I seagull my way, swaying in step with willow, blossoming surprising myself, how I let go of school day shivers, tinkering my brain into gear for terms talking tightness, cramming commas, fat full stops.

The Park in Spring
Your seduction has been unfair, Though you could not help it, my dear. My heart melts with the thoughts you share And aloe smoothness of your hair. Executed so ruthlessly, You constantly seducing me, With love given innocently, You did it all so carelessly. I’m smitten and I can’t let go, Seduced by all the things you know, You made my desire overflow, Just by affection that you show. I’m a slave to your seduction, Mastermind of will’s abduction, From our very introduction, I was lost to your seduction.

Your Seduction
My cousin told me that I am a good storyteller, but I should write something about me, about real people and a time that I was scared "shitless".  Well, I can only think of one time of a real life shocker that shook up my young world. It's nothing suspenseful. It probably wouldn't win any contests, but it isn't contrived. It's a snippet of the first time that I encountered the raw reality of death.   What did I know about death at eight years old? Our parakeet, Perky, died. My grandparents dog, Bruno, had to be put to sleep. As a girl, I vaguely recall seeing a dead man in a coffin, and that was at the funeral of my mom's aunt's husband.  This was only an introduction of the temporary world we live in.   Well, then there was an older couple two doors down from us. They had two grandchildren that used to come and visit them, a sister and brother. When in the neighborhood, they would play with my older brothers.  I cannot even recall their names. I cannot remember what they looked like or what they said. What  I do remember is the news being on in the living room, and I was eating dinner in the kitchen with my mom and brothers. Suddenly, the faces of that brother and sister were on TV. It was reported that their mentally troubled mother had killed them. I think it was because she was denied custody of them in an ugly divorce.  Doing a little bit of digging in the Michigan death index online, I rediscovered who they were. They were Susan and Richard. They were ten and nine-years-old at the time.   I surely don't remember plenty of details, as this was in June of 1973. Over forty years ago, it's a much faded memory now.  I only know I did not go to the funeral home. If I did, I am sure I'd be horrified to look upon those children who were robbed of their lives.  Death was no longer just for pets or old people.  It wasn't fair and it didn't discriminate in age. And if it could happen to someone as young as them, it could come knocking on my door. Perhaps, that was the beginning of my fear of death.

Profile: Yuwen Chengdu is the son of Yuwen Huaji, who was a general of the Sui dynasty. He is a warrior of Sui, only secondary to Li Yuanba, who is naturally super powerful. As recorded, he was as tall as ten feet with strong waist and body. In the appearance of golden face, long beard and thick eyebrow, he often hold a weapon as heavy as 350 pounds. Introduction of ****** makeup: ****** makeup, or Lian Pu, refers to ****** designs for Jing and Chou roles. It originated from daily life experience, describing such changes of expression as white for fear, red for shyness, dark for suntan, and sallow for illness. Most ****** designs attach great importance to the eyes.  The ****** designs for the Jing roles are made by painting, powdering and coloring in the basic forms of Zheng Lian (keeping the basic face pattern), San Kuai Wa Lian (three-section face) and Sui Lian (fragmentary face). These types are widely used to represent generals, officials, heroes, gods and ghosts. The Chou actors can be recognized by the patch of white in various shapes painted around the eyes and nose. Sometimes these patches are outlined in black, hence the term Xiao Hua Lian (partly painted face). The Chou roles fall into the following two categories: Wen Chou and Wu Chou. Features: ****** makeup bears three main characteristics. Firstly, it is the unity and contradiction of beauty and ugliness. Secondly, it is closely related to the personality of the characters. Lastly, the patterns are stylized. Beijing opera is one of the most popular drama widely welcomed and loved, no matter home and abroad. It is now acknowledged as a sign of Chinese traditional culture. The photos of ****** mask can be found on large buildings, product packages, various porcelains and clothes. It has gone beyond the stage, from which we can see the deep influence of ****** makeup. More and more foreigners have interest in it and begin to explore the secret of ****** makeup. http://www.toywill.com

Butch and Blonde
What’s in a name? It is what turns heads It can cause a quiver in your body Or a smile to curl onto your lips. A name can be tarnished Or reborn. It can make you stand out from the crowd Or join the masses. It is more than what society deems A socially acceptable form of Introduction. So let me introduce myself: I used to feel my name in harsh syllables Rooted in the language of my people’s history. MAR or MIR meant bitter. Like having the wrong taste in your mouth Reminding me of MARor – Eaten on Passover to remember how burdensome, Difficult and bitter the Jews’ slavery in Egypt was. IAM (YAM) – ocean. Tumultuous, never still. Always swirling and scaring children out of it. MIRIAM – my Hebrew name. Bitter sea. I grew into that name resentfully. I reacted when I was called that by fellow classmates, For what else could I do? But time went by And I began collecting seashells by the seashore. The ocean became a treasure and my name Had a new ring to it. Yet when eighth grade graduation came around I was given the option Of writing Mariya instead of Miriam. I was going to high school where I didn’t know anyone. So no one needed to know my bitter past. I also learned that a name was not made up of syllables But of sweet sounds. Mmm – like the taste of something so delicious your eyes close And you feel yourself melting. Aaa – you’ve just finished your meal and on this hot summer day You find solace in the cool water running down your back in the shower. Rrr – racing, running, reaching for the sky. That’s the sound I want my plane to make when I can hold a piece of Cloud in the palm of my hand and feel its silver lining. Iii – the sound of “and” in many languages. The sound of something more, Reminding me that this is not the end. Ya – the sound of agreement and conclusion. As if that is all I have to say…so yeah.

The sound of something more, Reminding me that this is not the end. Ya – the sound of agreement and conclusion. As if that is all I have to say…so yeah.

Kiss you low..Here I go Communicate soul to soul Touch is magic watch me grow Lick for lick blow for blow Open up to this kiss Introduction to poetic bliss I'm a G...I won't miss Mark it off your bucket list M.A.N not a boy Ignorance I will destroy Mastermind what's the ploy? Sauce you up just like soy Eat you up munch you down Parade you pretty around town Wicked doesn't need a crown Whimper when I eat you bound Rub you wet...Rub you wet..like a wish I'm gonna get Oh so wet..Oh so wet..love it when you ready set Enter thighs feel my rise Stroke..Choke..steady and wise Get that prize..Get that prize..No words needed can read your eyes Hold it...ugh..hold it some more...on the bed then to the floor Against the wall..through backdoor..on a sacred tantric tour Feel me guide..as you ride..inside feel me slip and slide Hit it wide..technique applied..what is needed I shall provide Feel the quake..legs will shake..more than love we will make What awakes? From pounding stake..squirting till no more can take Still we go..beyond the soul..where no one ever goes Yoni flower blooms like rose..Gyrate till your nectar flows Taste is sweet..flavor unique..savor moment we reach our peak What is complete? No need to speak..find what you sought to seek Next level we begin to glow..Shine like stars put on a show *** ****** this Scorpio...with poetry I Kiss You Low...

A Quote on Poverty
This Letter Poem WM is dedicated to Mr. Williamsji Maveli, our Masterpoet. Why a dedication to him? These initials WM are his names. Accidentally also the initials of the first name of our Dutch Crown prince Willem-Alexander. The second initial is of his wife's first name: Máxima. I want to write also about our Royal Family, since our Queen of the Netherlands Beatrix will abdicate next 30 April 2013 and at the same time Willem-Alexander and his wife will be crowned as King and Queen of the Nederlanden. Now you know a bit about the Dutch Royal family. Today Her Majesty Queen Beatrix is still Queen of de Nederlanden till next 30 April 2013. These humble verse is for you, Williamsji. Please, enjoy! Thank you for your attention.  Sincerely, Sylvia Frances Chan. **************************************************************************************************** This letter W stands for WILLIAMSJI and the next letter, an M for MAVELI This W par accidence is also the first letter of our Crown prince WILLEM-ALEXANDER on next 30 April WILLEM and his époussée, his wife MAXIMA will be crowned King and Queen of Neerlandica Usually our country is called Nederland the foreigners call it mostly the Netherlands the tourists a many of them prefer to say Holland with your permission, this dedication, if I may can also be used as introduction, what do you say? WILLIAMSJI is the first name of our masterpoet he creates poems mostly about sensuality entwined in beauty, eroticism and love when you'll read his poetry you wouldn't see all those I've written about him above Instead you must use your rational ability in the lines throughout his verse you won't find, of course not, all that worse instead, you will enjoy all the beauty of his master's talent writing about sensuality His family name is also beautiful, MAVELI well known as the masterpoet Williamsji Maveli both are his true names belonging to Mr. Maveli this M reminds me of MáXIMA, Crown prince Willem-Alexander's wife in optima Now you know why I dedicate this poem to you your initials are quite the same as Willem and Máxima WM is Williamsji Maveli the famous poet WM is also Crown prince Willem-Alexander and his wife Princess Máxima Still one thing hasn't been told today the 27th April is Willem-Alexander's birthday he has become forty six years old a good father of three daughters, all their first names begin with an A princess Amalia, Alexia and Ariane their grandma is Her Majesty Queen Beatrix she will abdicate after three and thirty years of reign Dear Mr. Williamsji Maheli, our masterpoet your initials WM are exactly the same as our Crown prince Willem-Alexander and his beloved wife Máxima that's why I present this humble dedication to you today as a small Dutch presentation © Sylvia Frances Chan 27th April 1967-2013 Crown prince Willem-Alexander's 46th Birthday

You put your pencil down when I thought you were writin Well that must mean you wanna get a little more exciting Put that pad down make feel a little more invited If you make me put away this phone I'll get a more enlightened I see your eyes must mean you serious bout this metaphor Well we can exchange verbs until we leave the pages letters torn You always find a way to make it known that you feelin me You said you had a new trick with your pen.I always like a new soliloquy And as the page turns like our sheets the composition gets deeper I can tell by the introduction that this one is a keeper. Extreme with the pen but I keep it in the lining This work of art is worth fallin asleep during writing I want this to be so great that you tell your friends about my writing Even though your friends tell me that you always tell about my writing But I kno you got a bad girls mouth Now come and let me see what them adverbs bout We pressed for time but I'm sure we can handle it And you kno I never need help with my adjectives By the way..will you perform my favorite adjective Even though last time I could barely handle it You are my pens favorite tablet So now my pen is happy and my pen wants you to have it The way your notebook looks I just want to grab it So I can rip the cover and we can write some majic Now put the paper to the pen like a nail to a hammer Until we reach the writing ****** cuz that's my favorite stanza Our subject-verb agreement gets tired of fighting So let's just write until we tired of writing We crossin T's and dotting I's no mistakes are being made We should publish our craft it would leave others basically amazed And after placing my last period you couldn't be more close to me Girl you the best I'm happy that you helped me create this poetry!
