"weirdly" poems
I like to play horror games Amnesia was the first one I played The monsters were scary The envoirement was eerie But if I'd call the monster Steven Instead of scared I'd be merry Steven was such a funny guy He looked funny He walked weirdly Nothing of him would terrify The only time he'd scare me was when I'd open the door Sometimes the jumpscare would make me fall to the floor Many years I have played these games Even though I was scared, in the end I'd be okay That was until I stood next to my brother He was not yet in his grave This experience was like no other It crashed on me like a giant wave I'd never seen him lay so still It was hard but I wanted to try Though I knew it could only go downhill I wanted to touch his hand one last time I lowered my body and reached out my hand I was pretty sure he would scare me right then & there But my brother didnt move, not even a hair And I realized at that moment how much I wanted that jumpscare

Jumpscare
Sensation, intuition, feeling, and thinking, Is wrapped inside a ball, A small pink ball inside our head, That won't stop till we're dead, Analytical bedrock inside oozing theories, Elemental atoms sizzling logic, The imaginative stranger, One abstracted and eccentric, Walking with shadows, Talking and mocking, Through these theories inside us, Tilting our caps ‘til we’re shaking our heads, Pensive love in storming analysis, Sapiosexually excited, piqued interest, Unemotional and thoughtfully attuned, Absently minded, always condoned, Unconventional and impartially stringed, Weirdly wired in auxiliary functions, Misconstrued and misunderstood, An ****** intelligence bleeding paranoia, Knocking unto me, Into you, inside us all, It’s something we all yearn to be, And when you fail and prevail we laugh, Crickling crickets thinking nothing, Washing down the storm drain, With no thoughts fluidly sliding down my throat, Pop goes no questions into absolute concise words like freshly broken glass, Again shadows await, but different shadows, Blinking at me staring at you, Wondering what’s what, inside this dementia made sense of a lovely afternoon, Inside your sane, autocorrected, predetermined, twitching, little…mind. Inspired by Myers Briggs Personality Test Tyler is INTP... Logician  (Introverted INtuitive Thinking Perception) The drifter, dreamer the absent minded professor! SassyJ is INTJ... Architect  (Introverted INtuitive Thinking Judging) The starry-eyed idealist manoeuvring life as if a giant chess board! What Myer Briggs personality type are you?...

You call it weird I call it normal What do you even think about When you see these things Do you even bother To mind my hurt For the things you call weird Are the most adorable in this world

Weirdly Normal
It was a rainy night. He took out his umbrella, opened it, and it soon engulfed the both of us. "Hey, you're getting wet," he said. He pulled me closer to him, his arms like the umbrella protecting me, protecting us from the drizzle. I snapped out of my daydream to find him weirdly staring at me, and asked him, "What, do I have something on my face?" "No, it's just... why are you staring into space?" Our footsteps made little splashes, puddles reflected a thousand images of us. These pictures from nature will not last for a lifetime but the rain was our witness, as if the skies were crying at a matrimonial ceremony. I took a step away from him to let the memory of him soak in me. He stands there in the rain innocently, with umbrella in hand, waiting for me to respond. Breathing out, I told him: "Ask me what I think of you right now." "Wait, what? Are we going to play a game?" That usual what-is-going-on look still stupidly plastered on his angelic face. "Well, what do you think of me right now, then?" I didn't hesitate and the first word that automatically left my lips were 'umbrella'. "Umbrella? Do I look that thin to you, really?" He said dryly as he gave me an uninspired look. He shook his head in disbelief and pouted. "And I thought you'd relate me at least to the rain." "Umbrella: definition for a protecting force or influence," I told him as I stood in place. I side-glanced at him to find a spark lighted up in his eyes as his shoulders loosened. "You're my umbrella because I need you in rainy days and sunny ones. Literally because of your stature to block the sun or cover me when it rains," I laughed. "And it's not because you're thin like one, silly. But how you comfortingly stretch out your arms to me when it's a bad day for me. How you guard me from others' icy remarks. It feels like a need to have you around wherever I go." He cleared his throat jokingly and added, "Might I say I also take you high like Mary Poppins' umbrella." He burst out laughing as I glared at him for his poorly done innuendo. But right there and then as I rolled my eyes at him, he dropped the umbrella, grabbed me by my waist and kissed me as light as the raindrops kissing our skin. He broke off after a while and said, "Getting wet, are we?" Before I could claw at him for his second pun, he released me as I chased him down, not caring if I would get a fever later. But sometimes I just wonder how did I come to like, fall in love, and love him-- basically feel every emotion with him. In all truth, he wasn't just my umbrella, but also my home whom I'll always return to at the end of all my days. Umbrella or home, he is my shelter.

Twisting tendrils of realization Run through my evermoving mind Up unto the age of eighteen I abhorred alliteration The seemingly simple Style showed, I thought An easy way of writing Whatever Just finding fitting words With meanings matching. Untill I read The Raven Poe penned what is I think, the epitome Of epic poems All while writing, in a weirdly Woven way A story of love lost Of wishing gone awry So since then I sometimes Try to match "my" master And in writing wishes With no reasonable rhyme I uncover my understanding Of my own simplistic stupidity But beside that also, always, Of how beautiful a language loved Can be.

all of you too, ask what shall we call you, and I smile/grimace, for lack of a proper witty, worthy, weirdly perfect pithy reply which is why I offer you a free option, call me by my other name, a What~You~Will, your preference is my desire, it is within your hidden possesions! your chosen attribute?choice, now mine, multi-faceted multi faced, every name has its own unique poet hissing hiding inside, wary of confessing he's/she's a sinner, ask, and you shall be both deceived, and well received, for we live in a thousand of words, all  disordered and when you inquire, then they be re~sorted into new combinations and for you, **when you call me, you may call by that name** that name, of the poem that will be given and taken expressly for and from you, it is the only way my teachers taught me to take, in order yo give you back your uniquness

call me by my other name
We blink quickly, so that we miss nothing, we compact an entire lifetime within an allotted time of two hours and a small two minute window for creditentials that acknowledge 1,326 people, not including "special thanks," we indulge on the dramatized events that may or may not have happened, We thrive on sports that televise a group of ten to twenty-two grown men that run fast jump quickly, and dance weirdly, but that is the pursuit of thrills

The pursuit of Thrills
Words should express sincerely It shouldn't be spoken rudely or weirdly Or it might be misunderstood by someone else. In the situation that merely just go Where all the tense and massive form of air Inhaling and exhaling deep inside It's ironic life could feel Looking for a word that could fit in Bringing some thing that could break "The awkwardness" Why is it so hard to start a conversation?

Conversation
i am reminded again of why i hate hospitals,                                         especially when there alone. maybe it's the scuffed floor or ugly upholstery of the chairs,              or the doctors half-attention,              or the way everybody stares,              or the way i try not to....              or  the way that one guy just needs to ask me what book i'm reading. "it's... well, it's a book about these writers who are deceived into isolation     and they write all  these stories of life and desperation"                                             (he doesn't actually care)               i hide in my hair.               at least we tried to have a conversation....               and then we just sit there,               until she calls the next patient.               i hope i'm next. i am reminded again of why i hate hospitals,                                        especially when there alone. maybe it's the stale air up against the smell of warm blankets,              or being fully clothed but feeling totally naked,              or being wheeled around to some other location,              or that being wheeled around kind of feels like              a ****** up vacation....              (you just get to lay there)              ((and be numb)) but i think it's the way she rubbed that gel **** all over my tummy and that when i say tummy, i don't feel like a woman i feel like a baby            and the way those plasticky tools let her see right through me              and the way men just do not know what to do when              women are bleeding the nurse named jeff asks me, "oooh, which palahniuk?"   "it's... well, it's the one about twelve writers who fall into the clutches of       this crazy guy who locks them all up! this story's about guts n stuff,"               "nice," he weirdly smirks, and thankfully gets back to work. jeff touches my arm a little too much, and i didn't really want him to have my blood, and maybe that's just vain stuff but the conversation was... good enough... and i am reminded again of why i hate hospitals,                                             especially when there alone. only got mister palahniuk* trapped in a purple book, this paper-bound blood work, to keep me company. i lay back with the iv drip next to my bed as i sweetly surrender to his gory head.... this book, it's called haunted. *i wish i had chuck's guts ~ literally and figuratively, he has no ****** and incredible creative bravery.

**Scattered Thunderstorms The radar shows a band of multi-green storms, Parallel running to the East Coast, Stretching from So. Florida to Falmouth, Rhode Island. Path-dependent, the edges skirt my present location, Instrumented, but not weather resistant, Water teases, invites me to a head clearing session. Breezy gusts of overcast, caramel salty bay waters, (weirdly calm), Spray sprites whisper, scattered thunderstorms, starboard side I am the only boat out, especially, The only one going for sure aimlessly, Radar non-discriminatory, stupidity legal, So fools like me go out alone. Scattered Thunderstorms, Unavoidable, summer's favored annoyance of choice. The melancholic platelets budding off my bone's marrow, Forming wondrous clots of sadness, Running strong in the currents of my veins, Downtempo'd, there is no relief for Inside of my radar scanned brain, the scattered thunderstorms, Have arrived much earlier today. What sourced this elegiac distich, Too many poets, fully disclosing their downbeat, aroma of defeat? The world is in a **** mood, not one of us, got nothing Good to say, seems that love storms ripping hearts With no trace of mercy, the radio has elected nonstop Taylor Swift and Jonas Bro's Just to make the point! It is so easy to feel ****** When the sun is unshining, elegant distich, **** me. Thinking back, getting a good idea, Found some long necked Corona overlooked, Turn on the tv, pretend I'm a real cowboy, And for god's sake, shut down poetry, Good Bye Poetry, for the rest of the day Value you more than me, but you've worn me down My blood streams your anguished distress, I cannot survive these scattered revolver-repeating Anguish-Cries-For-Relief from the Thunderstorms, That now having reached, breached, That now, having infected my heart which started This day brow beaten, First poem of the day, already shell-shellacked, Now, I must shut me, batten me, down. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The average lifespan of a platelet is normally just 5 to 9 days. Platelets are a natural source of growth factors. They circulate in the blood of mammals and are involved in hemostasis, leading to the formation of blood clots.

So Here's One: An Overworked Turtle's Newest Attempt At Poetry
The phone ringed, I gazed at the screen. I had never seen the number before. Baffled, I handed it over to my handsome husband. "Answer it," shoving it towards his head. He hurried and said "hello, who is calling." He looked at me blank and weirdly saying "I will grab her. Wait briefly." His eyes blazed into me, "it's your grandma." Shaken, I said, "Hello." She did a joyful, "hello Kara Jean." Determined to figure out what was happening. I proudly said, " you must have the wrong number both my grandmas are dead." She replied "I'm so sorry what a coincidence. My granddaughter is also Kara Jean. I swear we've been here once before." Giggling I commented, "that's remarkably crazy. I'm not remembering." Silence hit the air. The old cracked voice women said, "or maybe it's just your grandma calling from heaven to tell you she loves you." My throat being choked nothing would really be announced. Finally my voice complied, " What did you just say I'm not comprehending." An earth shattering laugh went over the phone, "You sound pretty amazing. I know if you were my grand baby, I would be proud to be graced by you." Words failed me being a first. Before I could get it together enough to say what the hell is happening. She exclaimed hastily, "I must be on my way, "know your grandmas undeniably love you." Click went the phone gone with no trace. Uncontrollable tears gushing out of my face. Reacting as if everything was falling away from my body. Was I hallucinating. Could someone been playing a cruel joke? Who would have the audacity. Considering, could it have truly been a toll free call from heaven.

I was in a dreamy state as we drove through the mountains, the bright Colorado sun reflecting almost too bright off of the frozen creek. The ridges of the giant turf were a little too brown for what I had expected this time of year, but the snow had not been as bountiful as winters past. My cell phone lost service as we glided along a windy highway, so I was left to nothing but my earbuds and the thoughts I had avoided. I felt a strange sensation of relief as I realized I didn't have to speak to anyone, how I could be left alone in the midst of a wide expanse of nature, perhaps the humble surroundings I needed to recollect myself. In the company of my loving family and in the presence of my grandfather's wisdom, I was bound to find some sort of peace, gain some sort of clarity, for if you couldn't find serenity in the Rocky Mountains, surely something was wrong with you. I spotted elk in the far distance beyond the car windows, and, despite the frigid single-degree-weather that enveloped them, I was weirdly envious of their tranquil presence in the snow, their freedom to be lost in the wilderness, their security in the pack that accompanied them. In that moment, I wanted to be one of the elk, running free into a realm of wild openness, running free in the mountains and valleys. In that moment, I wanted to be free.

man must livey
night just wants some sun and the sun wants to sleep but neither can get either with being alone every week. some people sleep all alone every night and that's what scares me to death. am I one of these fools, or can I follow these rules. and that's why I'm so scared of my bed. the monsters in the closet are just my memory's in deposit. so I can sleep like the rest of the dead. i know i'm not one to laugh or complain but weirdly my pain, is the only thing that wants to keep me sane. for better or worse, we all have a Cain. who would stick us in the heart. if only he could remain.

monsters in my closet.
Weirdly wonderful caterpillars, liquefy, transform, and reborn; Wonderfully beautiful butterflies, Who taught you how to do that? Mother Nature, the mother of gaps; Magical hand hides ignorance, Misdirects from real question: Why do we even ask at all? Curiosity satiated we move on, Forgetting blindness unremoved. For if sighted, a new tongue to learn, Mother Nature, the new alphabet.

Natural Language
One of my most vivid memories of us is that one time we were on the phone and you told me you felt uneasy because, your friend Morgan said that everyone changes. She said no one ever stays the same, and with enough time, you'll become a whole new person. You said this to me warily, I guess I stood quiet for more than I should've because you then softly muttered "are you gonna change?" Of course I swore I wouldn't. And I meant it. I really meant it when I said I wouldn't change. WE wouldn't. It'd always be like this. Late night talks on the phone, exploring the universe within our own minds, opening every door and walking in every aisle inside each other, carefully peeking into the cracks in the walls and kissing them better. That night you said that you loved me so much, you felt the need to open the window and shout it at the whole world. You wanted all Paris to hear it. If it was true love, how could it change? Laying against you in bed felt right. Like we had grooves and keys carved into our bodies that aligned us together perfectly, like it was supposed to be like this. It felt like we were the lucky ones. The lucky two that, against all the odds, found each other in the sea of hearts of the world. But the years went by as they do And slowly the fire started to cool down We memorized the way in and out of the labyrinth of our bodies. Weirdly, the grooves and keys that snuggled us so closely together before, didn't seem to fit all that well anymore. We didn't realize that time had put new cracks on our walls. Some doors were closed and others were opened. I guess We were lazy to remap the whole thing, or maybe we didn't even notice. But we kept walking the same way in and out every time. It grew... Tideous. Without me realizing, you stopped shouting your love for me to Paris. And When I turned my head and looked behind, it seemed like it was just a faint whisper. After that, all I could hear was the echo. To be honest, I was mad for a long time. Thinking that you let everything die. That our hands didn't fit together like they used to because you didn't care to make it right. But Lately I'm thinking that, it's not that you didn't care. It's not that I did something wrong. It's surely not a matter of true love, because it was. No, we didn't let it die We just... changed. I guess Morgan was right.

Oft do thoughts trickle through my idle mind. These plays by the soul is what for it's designed. Or so thought I. Entertaining the figments Entertaining, remembering, my soul forments. Stories I wish never were or at least never Was ever a part of. But they're mine to keep forever. Never cherished the light as I did the dark. When puppies slept and the doggies would bark. A mouse through the thickets, while she'd move, Got swooped at once. Death from above. It was an owl. It didn't hoot. It just killed a mother But this was for her owlets so ... Necessary ****** The paradoxes that seem weirdly against what's moral. Like the tale of the spider in the ****** I digress far, and the night is passing fast. Pains of the future, which comes but never lasts. Sprites from the past which stay and never die. The long night puts many to sleep but keeps open my eyes. As my thoughts dwell, the tears swell within my lids. Intrepid imaginations assault my heart. Courage what it needs. I think why it is that we hurt and we feel. The scars asking me, do we ever heal? Can't help the noise or the silence or the madness. The grieving soul isn't oblivious of it's vastness. The scars ask again. Did we ever feel? The incomplete stories that my heartbeats seal. Threatening to be revealed with every breath. Too sharp to be left bare, like a sword in it's sheath. The tales you sought for me to tell you. Will only prove your fears come true. Bones under putrid skin and open sores. Maggots festering and oozing from the pores. Dead ones in the open fields, vultures hovering. Hyenas on the corpses, jeering, devouring. Jackals eagerly waiting their turn. The aftermath of war. Grey matter seeping through an eye the bird tore Out. Dream of war, little soldier, and thus demystify The mysteries of demise and my lullaby.

Yeah well I sat in the barbers chair while you walked up and down the crowded aisles in a half deserted Tesco store I wondered why what was it for? The freezer stood alone at home freezing cold as was its wont but it was stacked with want me nothing more at all for it was full up to its freezing chin with something brought from albuquerque and two fifths of London Gin. The barber gave a weirdly grin and gave me one of number two I should have fekin known that's what the little *** would do but you just wandered round and did you see that skinhead passing by the deli' counter? that was me I waved atop my fresh shaved head but I was dead meat on the cooked meat and it shook me wide awake I need to take a breather might even leave her she would not care she's got Tesco's in her brain and not to mention in her hair with apple summer fresh smell,how much dumber can one get well if I stick about just watch this space look out for the smiling vacant face that will be me taking her to do her hair just like mine.

Perspective
I was always weirdly rebellious as a child. As a teen I never pierced my tongue, Snuck boys over the house, Or stole candy bars from the convenience store. Not me, when I was little I would refuse to take my naps. I'd fake sleeping and then sit there and hum to myself, Waiting for my matka to come back and check on me. I cut my own bangs, Even when I was five. Even when I was five the day before school pictures. Matka wasn't pleased. I didn't want to learn the Polish I was being taught. I wanted to be different. I didn't want chocolate milk like everyone else. I wanted plain milk, Not sweet milk. Everyone liked sweets. I didn't like the sun, Because everyone liked the sun. I liked the rain. I wanted to be different. My favorite word was podnóżek. Do not be fooled, It is nothing pretty. It means footrest. I liked it because it was different. I wanted to be a rebel. The coolest rebel of all. One who fakes her naps, cuts her hair, drinks plain milk, and enjoys the word footrest. The coolest rebel of all.

The Coolest Rebel of All
**Ugh Not again You have that pensive look the slurred algebraic expression that algorithmic stench Molten into confusing matrix Geometrically weirdly shaped** *Please shut up I can't take it anymore Your meagerly written poems the frustrating metaphors baked with suffocating syllables dude, what the heck is a pensive look* **There's a huge probability it won't delve out any logical statistics. the equations alone will alienate you the calculus involved is far ahead of your time just stick with trigonometric thoughts C'mon you already know the plane of your thighs are sophisticated** *is that a compliment Painting splendid imagery that nobody else understands a poet lurking in words always writing   Unfiltered intricately worded poems*
