"jem" poems - Hello Poetry

This morning we jogged early I was back in my flat by six-thirty From my tenth floor view of the Charles River basin, The morning was incandescently flushed by the peach-colored sun. The transparent clouds seemed stylistically stained, artfully workshopped, which offered a softened, Tiffany glass effect wholly worthy of worship. I can’t stop to admire it. I’m jamming things into suitcases. Cramming things into boxes, giving things away. I had a second interview Monday afternoon, for Johns Hopkins med school. They put the question to me: “The semester starts in 18 days - can you do that?” “Yes,” I replied, and just like that, I'm a Blue Jay. Of course, I had to withdraw from the masters program but Harvard gave me a full (95K) refund - I think they’re more excited about my med school admission than I am. I’m not afraid of discordant notes. They change the landscape. Take us to new emotional places. Any major work is going to have them. . . A song for this: Hang on Little Tomato by Pink Martini It's Amazing by Jem

discordant notes

This morning we jogged early I was back in my flat by six-thirty From my tenth floor view of the Charles River basin, The morning was incandescently flushed by the peach-colored sun. The transparent clouds seemed stylistically stained, artfully workshopped, which offered a softened, Tiffany glass effect wholly worthy of worship. I can’t stop to admire it. I’m jamming things into suitcases. Cramming things into boxes, giving things away. I had a second interview Monday afternoon, for Johns Hopkins med school. They put the question to me: “The semester starts in 18 days - can you do that?” “Yes,” I replied, and just like that, I'm a Blue Jay. Of course, I had to withdraw from the masters program but Harvard gave me a full (95K) refund - I think they’re more excited about my med school admission than I am. I’m not afraid of discordant notes. They change the landscape. Take us to new emotional places. Any major work is going to have them. . .

The Sukhumvit Rap by David John Clare Boom boom bah smoke yaba bah bah bah boom! Boom boom bah smoke yaba bah bah bah boom! Well, she come in to Na Na town on dah midnight sky train, anonymous esan girl she a mysterious Bangkok dame Out of the nite shadows she will walk and magically appear, I'm telling you fresh forang you got some awful things to fear right here She can slave your mind in a minute without talk so lyrical, she's a modern Thai freak, a ****** miracle First She opiates his mind then double you'll see will loose all sense of time and then the trouble will be She knows what she is doing, her instincts are cold Forang men they surrender and just do what they are told Beyond the like of a dibbie girl as you are a sucker for her date she will leave your mind and body in a wicked deadly state A jealous girlfriend could now completes the scene as you walk back to your short time room near Pat Pong soi cowboy libertine... If you get near her you hear the voice of a Thai Siren Don't you look at her don't you touch you'll start cryin' If you dare embrace her fool you will think you found a rare Silom Road Jem or Jewel? She can tear your heart out and she will do it with your own **** tool ! Tell The brothers not to look the wink of her eye, tell all of the brothers not to watch her WINK! You can tell by her moves and the slit under her dress she is a one trick thai pony ahead of you by her breast She got a photographic smile Greta garbo movie hair She can tear any man down with that Siamese cat like looking stare... Don't look into her eyes she'll control you blind you want to wine and dine her? ha, it is your mind she will sixty nine Shell try her best to allure you so now don't concede cuz if you touch her now boy your heart will bleed It is a hell of way to take a Thailand vacation but remember this; there is no way of ever stopping this ****** man killer creation. Tell The brothers not to watch the wink of her eye, tell all of the brothers not to watch her WINK! Boom boom bah smoke yaba bah bah bah boom! Boom boom bah smoke yaba bah bah bah boom! WINK!

Quixotes is a dream, It's a fireplace and songs Its strong friendship and beautiful moments shared It's a thought that guides souls to a peaceful way It's wood and brick paint and posters built with gentle care and loving soul Quixotes is a world away from the world where dance is freedom Laughter and joy are the air we breath Song a rich tapestry that tells the tale of how we came to be Song a river that has flowed thru our lives in this palace, in this beautiful dream Quixotes is a sweet jem sparkling in the sun forever home for our hearts

Quixotes is a dream, It's a fireplace and songs Its strong friendship and beautiful moments shared It's a thought that guides souls to a peaceful way It's wood and brick paint and posters built with gentle care and loving soul Quixotes is a world away from the world where dance is freedom Laughter and joy are the air we breath Song a rich tapestry that tells the tale of how we came to be Song a river that has flowed thru our lives in this palace, in this beautiful dream Quixotes is a sweet jem sparkling in the sun forever home for our hearts

I have a jem It sparkles in the sunlight inside of me and blinds the eyes of those who dare to challenge the brightness of my jem It impresses people everywhere leaving them in awe and amazement I have no need to flaunt or praise myself for it is done constantly for me Despite the obvious that exists in me To some, it cannot be seen No matter how bright my jem sparkles Only one person is blind To my shine Who would have imagined that Out of all those who were incapable of seeing It would have been someone so close Closer than anyone else who was blind Oh father, when will your eyes clear And un-blur from the barriers of our differences When, just when will you see with clarity The talent I possess

Blind to the Obvious

I have a jem It sparkles in the sunlight inside of me and blinds the eyes of those who dare to challenge the brightness of my jem It impresses people everywhere leaving them in awe and amazement I have no need to flaunt or praise myself for it is done constantly for me Despite the obvious that exists in me To some, it cannot be seen No matter how bright my jem sparkles Only one person is blind To my shine Who would have imagined that Out of all those who were incapable of seeing It would have been someone so close Closer than anyone else who was blind Oh father, when will your eyes clear And un-blur from the barriers of our differences When, just when will you see with clarity The talent I possess

Belle is a scarred girl, shes been hurt and bruised by this cold cruel world. Now, She left me, so if she got my attention then the ball's in my court, so to speak I don't think she would even consider wanting me back though, so maybe i needed to be alone again i think. So the day after she left, i walked to work, as per usually I stopped in the guitar shop to play on my next investment, a lovely Candy Red Ibanez Jem you see. I sat in the shop for a good few hours, letting my heartbreak out through flat strings that were starting to sound sour. I got up and saw someone beautiful having some trouble at the counter.

It was dark outside, Loud rain drops tampered on my window, Smell of wet soil hit the air. I was sitting in my window and my mind swirled in the fictional world. I could see Harry on his broom, And Will, Tessa and Jem sitting together. Charlie was again writing his diary, And Jane was reading a book. Sherlock and Dr. Watson were chasing a culprit While avengers were saving the world. Lucy with her siblings was ruling the Narnia While Fred and George were pranking the other students. I could see Alice wandering in wonderland, And I could also see Naomi with the three musketeers arguing. I could hear Grover playing his pipes, And Percy and Annabeth were kissing. Then the rain stopped abruptly, Bringing me back to the real world, Leaving me in a state of melancholy.

A diamond clear An opal sparkly, No jem is as bright as you, dear; All the other ones back down in fear Because you shine so darkly But I don’t find you frightening In fact, quite delighting In your gorgeous quirks I can’t help but to adhere ‘Cause your quirks, it works, With my personality, no matter how queer.

A Diamond

A diamond clear An opal sparkly, No jem is as bright as you, dear; All the other ones back down in fear Because you shine so darkly But I don’t find you frightening In fact, quite delighting In your gorgeous quirks I can’t help but to adhere ‘Cause your quirks, it works, With my personality, no matter how queer.
