"nintendo" poems
I admit I do not understand People staring at their hands A tiny screen controls their eyes Electronic lows and highs Folks all wander to and fro Directed by Pokémon Go One's free will is all but dead With Nintendo now deep in your head It's great to be out in the sun But, can you really call this fun The best part though, I think to me Is the collisions between man and tree

I live in the birth of Nintendo vs Sony vs Sega Trying to beat that high score in the Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat Combat with a K That innovative **** I survived the destruction of Sega Dreamcast As they became third party And Microsoft took their place with Xbox and Ninja Gaiden Alive from that old arcade I live in the awing of the interactive Wii And internet friendly Playstation 3 I also live in the original Mario Bros and Pac Man and... Terminator vs. Robo-Cop Yea I bet you don't remember that one Or Galaga or Excitebike Or even that good old Asteroid, space dodging, alien blasting Spacce Invaders! Yea, I'm from Nintendoland No... Segaworld Nah... Sony City Nu uhn... Microsoft... Can't even think of a place for that I am from that video gamer nation That fight, hack, slash, race, create, explore, role-play Even play those insane sports See I'm from that... See, I am from that... I am from that Video gamer heaven descended That has that powerful curiosity and love for that Space Invaders! No That love for all video games And that memory of the ****** game graveyard Where E.T. now resides... See, I'm part of the new gen Trying to play Street Fighter 4, Final Fantasy XIII, Star Ocean Saying "I go harder than you young bloods cause I played Space Invaders!" So, what era am I from?

“T'was the night before Christmas ...” and Santa was busy. The reindeer were antsy the elves in a tizzy. The missus was tending the ovens like mad And turning out cookies to make children glad. The wood chips were flying the sawdust was thick The workshop was bulging with toys from St. Nick. Contractors from Sega, Nintendo and Sony Were working on games (and a robotic pony). Iphones and Ipads (with virus removal) Were packed in their boxes and stamped "Elf Approval". Last minute touches were added with flair While elf stylists tended to Santa's white hair. Elf tailors were making some last alterations To Santa's red coat and his waist tribulations. The weather was fair as the weather-elf stated The routes were approved and departure was slated. Bells had been polished and harnesses buffed While repairs were addressed for the hoofs that were scuffed. The antlers were festooned with ribbons and bells And the reindeer were covered with elf flying spells. The clock approached midnight as Santa was seated. The countdown began as the flight crew was greeted. H-hour neared and the tension was growing. Outside it grew cloudy and then, began snowing. But Santa just grinned as the weather-elf winced. "Don't worry, my friend.   Our time has commenced." For the weather was nothing to Santa's conveyance. His reindeer and sleigh were immune to"delay-ance". With a whirl of his whiskers and a flick of his wrist The reindeer were launched in a flash of white mist. And I heard him exclaim through his teleport ray: "ALERT TSA. Tell 'em I'm on my WAY!"

Summer Homes
Whose job is it to make sure our kids are educated properly. The parents are putting all the blame solely on me. I was always told that a parent is a child's first teacher. Although, you want to place the blame on the public school system and teachers. Why doesn't he know how to read and tie his shoe? But....he can unlock different levels that were unknown to you. Nintendo's Wii, PS3 and Xbox 360 are more important to you and your children....not a lesson sent home from me. He can count to 25.....although he doesn't recognize the numbers when he sees them. Parents continue to say that I don't teach enough and I don't know what I'm doing. My response is this.....some of you ruin the children. You want to be their friend and dress them in name brand clothes and sneaks. Meanwhile....he doesn't recognize the seven days that create the week. I asked him to read and he became upset and pushed his book on the floor. He used inappropriate language and said "I don't want to be in this class anymore! He's in seventh grade and reads on a first grade level. So....my question is this.....is it my fault or the teachers who came before? That he's not on grade level when he enters my door. Homework rarely comes back when I send it home.....although he has a new iPod and an iPhone. The interNet and social media.....has a strong hold on our youth. The sad thing about this is......people won't admit that this has a hint of truth. It still takes a village to raise a child....but things are not the way they used to be.....and you can't tell people about the children that live under the same roof. We need to go back to the core principals of teaching our children. Teaching begins at home. That's where I first learned....to read and to write. A little discipline never hurt anyone....it encourages them to learn and to do things right. My question to you and it's open for discussion ...... Whose job is it ?

Where I’m From I am from wires, from electricity and TV screens. I am from the dust covering the console. (Piled high, thick, It made me sneeze) I am from the Sega Genesis the Nintendo Who has long been forgotten amongst the shiny new games. I am from controllers and memory cards, From Mario and Sonic. I’m from the hard core gamers, And the once-in-a-whiles, From You win! And Game over! I’m from Thou saveth the princess With Donkey and Diddy And 10 cheats I know by heart. I’m from GameStop and Best Buy, brand new plastic and overheating console. From the controller thrown across the room To the memories, bonding brother and sister. In my closet is a box, filled with old games, scratched up discs that will never again work I am from these games created before I was born, born from the tree of electronics.

Where I'm From
The poem that I'd never write.. The kind of poem that'd show me in a different light. I scoff at Benja F bills Women come and go, I be popping pills that make the world turn slow. I yolo ******** Holler at team swag, Money and the ******* Tell her throw it in the bag.. That's the kind of poem that I'd never write. The kind of poem where I ****** everyone in sight. I keep it real hood. Gangster all day. Look me the wrong way, Dead body in the hallway. You don't want no problems, I'm strapped like Velcro, Dummy I don't play no games, Nintendo. This made little sense, something wasn't right. This is the kind of poem I would never ever write.

Differences
The violet sky stood bashful against the dimming horizon. Stark trees sprang from the ground, flourishing in dots midst the blushing stars. Street lights flicker on, reminding me of how mom didn't have to yell for me to come home, the lights whispered it to me, carried in the caressing breeze. I'm reminded in the spring, of the day me and my friend ran into the pelting rain and jumped through puddles, soaking our bodies in high pitched laughter and impending colds. I'm always reminded in the summer months, how everyone including myself, preferred water from the hose over water from the tap. Or how we'd run rampant through the field behind my house, screaming against the heat. The broken sidewalk reminds me of the time when we all thought we were cool for trying to smoke cigarettes we stole from our parents. I fell in love with patches of clovers more than that of a boy's selfish smile. I was more in love with the act of collecting lady bugs as pets rather than holding a hand pushed into mud. I preferred shallow swimming pools over the small voice of a boy asking me if i had other friends like them. Or how the beam of the sun was better than the beam of a slender, pale face with blue eyes. Blind and innocent children, we fell in love with things we could touch or splash in. We fell in love with the beautiful colors and characters in our favorite Saturday morning cartoons. When we weren't playing cops and robbers, we were lost in a world of SEGA and Super Nintendo 64. We were infatuated with a world that never altered, but our vision cleared of. We were saturated in a time where our only big worry was making sure we got our recess time. And when the smog cleared we realized our biggest worry was making our parents proud. And it seems that it should be the other way. We should be proud of the kid our parents raised. But ultimately, the monsters under our beds became the demons in our heads. And the kid your parents raised slowly became the kid you wish your parents never had. There won't be a day in my life where i wish i could fall in love with the sound of an ice cream truck, or the animals at the end of my bed again.

I've Put So Much Into This, I'm Not Going To Give Up Now. Your Happy To **** Me, To Show Me Your Deepest Passion. But You Wont Let Me In, What's Your Problem, Your Afraid Of Being Used, But Happy To Use Me. I Knew From The Second That I Set Eye's On You You Were Trouble, But Being Arrogant I Went On, Now I Am Sitting Here, Wondering What Happened. Why Am I The One With These Feeling's? What Did I Do Wrong? You Were My Blue Eyed, Blond Hair Girl, Most People Would Call You The Perfect Trophy. I Now Know You To Be The Perfect ***** Building Me Up Like That Every Time, So You Could Just Walk Away And Watch Me Tumble Down. But I Still Can't Give You Up, You Are My Worst Habit, That Hook That Got Me Good, I Need My Fix, But You Deny It. Why Do This, Is It A Game To You? Because I Feel Like A Used Nintendo 64, Just Sitting In The Corner Covered In Dust, Just Waiting For Your New Play Station To Quit On You. Is That What I Am To You? Just A Fall Back? Am I That Thing You Don't Really Want But Just Keep In Case? Or Do You Want More From Me? I Don't Know, This Is Starting To **** Me Now, These Question's Hurt More Than The Scrutinising Look We Have Shared On More Than One Occasion. I Want More, I Need More, I Need You. I'm Not Ready To Be Your Little Bit On The Side Or Back Up Any More, I Deserve More, No One Deserves This. Please Be Humane, Put Me Out Of My Misery!

A Used Nintendo 64
a mysterious lady told me i am a landlocked mermaid:emerged from the ocean with legs and a shine i can't lessen even though others might try to make me. i now give much heed to mysterious ladies. girls i grew up playing Nintendo with are having babies and starring in their own personal generic happily ever Mormon afters and the guys are being shipped off straight from high school to preach a gospel they neither understand nor care about, two years of being ***** and righteous and shrink-wrapped in guilt. i think they are the landlocked ones i am getting out of this ocean-less place with a tactic that goes a little something like throwing a dart and chasing it with my eager feet wherever it  may go.

Love isn’t a feeling Love isn’t an action Love isn’t a person Love is a place. It’s the cave of wonders It’s a hospital room filled with new life, balloons, and flowers It’s an altar in a church in the countryside of a town unknown while a man pleads for the soul you’re not ready to give. It’s a tent pitched next to the lake while fish cook over a crackling fire It’s a home with a swing-set in the backyard with a dog tied to a banana tree, while naked children dance through sprinklers. It’s the treehouse in the neighbor's backyard It’s a living room where friends sit and play Nintendo 64 It’s a bathtub with bubbles and a book and a beverage Love isn’t butterflies in your stomach It’s a butterfly garden at the city zoo on a hot Saturday morning with butterflies flittering and fluttering and flattering around. Love isn’t jumping in front of a train for someone It’s the parking lot of a hospital you run through to stand by a death bed, reading from a Bible you haven’t opened in twenty years. Love isn’t your parents or brothers or sisters or cousins or friends It’s the patio screened in, with the rain tap dancing on its roof, while a father of three snores peacefully in a rocking chair. Love is Calvary’s hill It’s a trustworthy bank It’s a dog kennel jam-packed with the loyal, the faithful, the brave, and the true Love is an underground railroad connecting those who belong together.

What Isn't Love?
It seems to me that the happiest people are people who barley have the,( I won't say necessities because that would mean to much to most of us in the US), let's say people who barley scrap by. Every day is a challenge to scrap up enough to eat and drink. These people seem to be closer to their families. They laugh more. They share more. They know what is in their brothers heart as well as what is in their own. They live a simple life spiritually and a hard life physically. No TV, no media, no Hollywood. Sometimes I wish I lived somewhere like Ethiopia or a hundred other places on this earth not bombarded every minute of every day with things. THINGS that are not important. To live where just to survive the day and have people to rejoice in that survival with is enough. Body and soul I long for the happiness that comes from a day well lived. We have become a nation that knows not how to live but how to be entertained. We never slow down to feel what's in our heart or to feed our souls. If we never listen to what is in our own heart how can we know what is in another heart. Oh just to live and not to judge. Is that possible? Can it be possible when we are bombarded with the latest, the greatest, the best of fashion, phone, game, religion? Who knows what I could do if I didn't have everyone telling me who or what I should be. And believe me it changes daily.  We all look at these " less fortunate" people on TV or in a magazine and we feel sorry for them when it is ourselves that we must feel sorry for. What is to become of us. We are a most intriguing people, we who have done so many amazing things, and yet most of us feel sad or lonely. Yes, you have a beautiful home. Yes, you have people who love you. But wait, how do you know they love you?.....well of course they love you, their suppose to love you, after all you love them.....right. I mean that's the way the story goes....right?  You know the story, the one you saw on Lifetime yesterday, while your loved ones were doing....ah what were they doing? Oh yes, your son was playing that new game, you know " **** Zombie **** on that PlayStation or Nintendo or something like that, and your daughter was at the mall buying the latest thing to make her feel beautiful, and your husband was.....well he was doing something on the computer. How can you love someone if you don't know who they are. How can you love someone if you don't know who you are. All of this technology may be bringing the world closer but who needs to know the world when they don't even know their own family....,or their next door neighbor, the one that shot himself yesterday. No one knows why.  Please people , I beg you, put down the phone turn off the TV, go out on a date( not at the movies), but somewhere you can talk and get to know each other. And if you don't know what to say just say what's in your heart. After all that is what truly matters.  If you can realize that most of the things in your life are meaningless then you too can have a life well lived. In the end isn't that all that matters.  So for now I am signing out and switching off, and tuning in to my life.  For all I wish is to have a life well lived.

Can it be possible when we are bombarded with the latest, the greatest, the best of fashion, phone, game, religion? Who knows what I could do if I didn't have everyone telling me who or what I should be. And believe me it changes daily.  We all look at these " less fortunate" people on TV or in a magazine and we feel sorry for them when it is ourselves that we must feel sorry for. What is to become of us. We are a most intriguing people, we who have done so many amazing things, and yet most of us feel sad or lonely. Yes, you have a beautiful home. Yes, you have people who love you. But wait, how do you know they love you?.....well of course they love you, their suppose to love you, after all you love them.....right. I mean that's the way the story goes....right?  You know the story, the one you saw on Lifetime yesterday, while your loved ones were doing....ah what were they doing? Oh yes, your son was playing that new game, you know " **** Zombie **** on that PlayStation or Nintendo or something like that, and your daughter was at the mall buying the latest thing to make her feel beautiful, and your husband was.....well he was doing something on the computer. How can you love someone if you don't know who they are. How can you love someone if you don't know who you are. All of this technology may be bringing the world closer but who needs to know the world when they don't even know their own family....,or their next door neighbor, the one that shot himself yesterday. No one knows why.  Please people , I beg you, put down the phone turn off the TV, go out on a date( not at the movies), but somewhere you can talk and get to know each other. And if you don't know what to say just say what's in your heart. After all that is what truly matters.  If you can realize that most of the things in your life are meaningless then you too can have a life well lived. In the end isn't that all that matters.  So for now I am signing out and switching off, and tuning in to my life.  For all I wish is to have a life well lived.

His name is Mario Mario and he was Nintendo's mascot. He used to be Nintendo's biggest star but now he's not. Nintendo fired Mario when they learned that he has a Playstation 4. They didn't want an employee who plays the games of a competitor. He thought Luigi would take up for him but he's the one who turned Mario in. When Mario got done with him, he was sorry and he won't betray Mario again. When Luigi turned his brother in, Nintendo agreed to let Luigi take his place. After Mario beat Luigi senseless, he started jumping up and down on his face. Luigi learned that turning his brother in was a really stupid thing to do. Mario broke several of Luigi's body parts and his face looks like an old shoe. Mario believes that Nintendo is dumb because they made his first and last names the same. And the entire world is shocked because there will be no future Mario games.

revelation part 1
1. Your cornflower blue eyes crinkled and laughing, sometimes flashing like the storms you love to chase 2. Your strawberry blond mop that smelled nothing like fruit but instead of sweat and grime, clinging to your brow when you removed that Pepsi baseball cap 3. Easter egg hunts on your birthday, like plastic flowers in melted snow and you up trees and on the roof of grandma's garage 4. Rare compromises that built tree forts or wound up the tire swing until it bounced and whirled its passenger like a spinning top 5. When everything you did, I wanted to do too--whether it was rescuing the princess or flying an X-wing 6. Diddy and Dixie Kong headlocked and tangled in armpits, wrestling for the Super Nintendo controller or for the remote for the VCR until Donkey had enough and made them both watch Barney 7. The laughter of you and your friends from the basement or slipping around the corner, back when I said “Me too” and meant “include me” 8. Games of war crouched behind the couches when the only war you dreamt about was the one in Narnia 9. The cliff in Hawaii over the smoking volcanic ocean water and Mom screaming for you to come down 10. When you push me, like the dominoes you used to line up and watch devotedly as they toppled over, one after the other because sometimes general incivility is the very essence of love.

Ten Things That I Thought of on Your Birthday
So it's your fourteenth birthday and you must compose a list A list of anything you want as a birthday gift But what if the thing you want is really hard to say The one and only thing you want on this birthday Most girls my age might want an ipad or a phone New makeup, a Nintendo or a laptop of their own But the only thing I want, it would forever last The one simple thing in which is from my past All I want is him. Oh, how I miss him Late June marked three years since I've seen him It's been too long we've been apart I want him, yet distance keeps us apart Oh him, the one. What love shared In my head I felt he cared He made me laugh, and never cry Never could I say goodbye So can you see, just try to see That the one thing you can give to me Though he stands alone on my list I never got my birthday wish #7_8/9/11

Birthday Wish
I. Blurry green and brown shapes rush past me at the speed of light, i spin around and around. Trees, people and playground equipment blend together in a whirlwind, i am spinning around so fast i think i might die. My small hands grip the edges of the black rubber tire. i squeeze my eyes shut, thinking that might make the dizziness stop but it only makes it worse. Pain enters my fingertips - my arms are ripping apart. Still, i hold on. i’m afraid that if i let go my head will hit the ground and my neck will snap. i hear my brother’s laughter swirling around my head. i want to beg him to stop the spinning but i know that crying and pleading only makes this game last longer. When i asked him to play this wasn’t what i had in mind. So i wait quietly. This will all be over soon. II. Darkness is all around me. The one tiny hole near the lid of the toy box allows only a sliver of light into my little wooden prison. i run my fingers along the dark walls beside me and all around me, feeling the grains of the unfinished wood. My finger catches a sliver and it stings but i don’t cry because crying only makes this game last longer. The old toy box groans under the weight of my brother’s body. i can hear his fingers mashing the Nintendo controller and his feet kicking against the outside of the box. When i asked him to play, this wasn’t what i had in mind. If i wait quietly, he will eventually get bored and this will all be over soon. III. The grass is wet and yucky underneath my body, cold and slimy. Rows of houses watch in judgement against black suburban sky, their inhabitants fast asleep and safe in their beds while i lie here with this strange man’s ***** hands around my neck. How did i get here? A few too many rounds of vodka-fueled drinking games, each sip burning up a piece of my awareness until all i can comprehend is his heavy body on top of me, his cold, unfamiliar eyes. When i asked him to play, this wasn’t what i had in mind. Each time my ragdoll head smacks the ground, the sickening sound bounces between my eardrums. He could easily ragdoll me to death. i pray someone will step outside and end this game, but screaming will only make him panic, and wild animals can be unpredictable when cornered. So i wait quietly and hope this will all be over soon.

super mario flow
you? made of pixels? hah, if i wanted pixels i would have played nintendo 64 with my neighbour down the street and angrily whispered "h-e-double hockey sticks" under my breath as one of my pixelated hearts faded away. you are anything but intangible; i can feel your pulse across two countries. our hearts are undeniably made of flesh. i know that word grosses you out, but the blood pumping, orifice-filled organs in our chests constantly beat with the ferocity of 109 percussionists drumming on the queen's birthday. hearts are not meant for beautification; one cannot get a cosmetic surgery on their heart to impress the girl next door. it's up to you to pair with your just-as-ugly brain to prove how beautiful love can be.
