"wrestler" poems
I lay a girl to rest in the flowers. She sleeps softly in her meadow bed. I stand by, Woman, strong. I love her with all my heart But I am glad I am not her. Not anymore. A snake slithers through the grass His name is Death And I am, at last, afraid of him. When he strikes at my heel, I crush his head. All my force aided by The blankets of comfort I wear around my shoulders- Collected from my Dear Ones And from the One above. Suicidality fades, Suplexed by love. I loved myself with all the violence of a wrestler. I threw my self-hatred on the ground; Crushed the head of my snake. Now- Back straight Head high Hair curling around a sun bonnet Skirt rippling out Boots splashing in puddles Music in ear and heart I graduated at last From barely surviving To fully living.

Just So You Know, It Gets Better
(Solitary Chamber. Heart breaking melodious music is flowing silently. Young Ren is looking pale, soliloquizing.) Young Ren: Sweet Flance! Can you hear me? I do know you can never see me now; But hear me --- my words at least! Feel my heart that hangs on nothing; Yet resting itself on my unrequited love. Hear me! Do hear me! Send thy spirit unto me awhile, And hearken my silent words. Dear Flance! Thou must be now with thy partner Breaking thy footprints with me once; Yet ne'er am I angry with thee. From him I should not take thee away; Yet listen unto me awhile. Dear Flance! I loved thee not at the very first sight Like Orlando and Rosalind --- Orlando was a wrestler, Rosalind was a fair lady. Their love began at an arena in a contest --- Rosalind in the guise of Ganymede, Their love passed thro' rustic lands Symbolizing the art of Nature, Their love stirred the young hearts With wonder and fancy. Sweet Flance! Romeo died of Juliet and Juliet of Romeo --- Breaking endurance to chaos. There was poison in their love. Dear Flance! Jealousy lingered in the fatal love Betwixt Othello and Desdemona, At night their love was born, At night their love was dead When blackened by the candle light. Dear Flance! Lysander loved Hermia And sought fanciful beings For their fanciful union. Dear Flance! Know you, Keats died of consumption? His love for ***** Brown was limitless, And so burst into tears. Oh! No! MY love for thee can never have comparisons. Sweet Flance! Blossomed my love for thee When thou wert young, When thou wert beautiful; Yet it's not of Romeo's, Of Othello's, Of Lysander's, Of Dante's, Of Keats', For they died of their love. My love for thee be unrequited; yet ineffable. You felt not my love; yet I cannot be Romeo. Know you? Romeo loved Juliet, Juliet loved Romeo, And so they died without love. Loved I thy heart, not thee? Love I thy heart, not thee? And so, We live in remembrance of each other. Dear Flance! Thou must be now living with thy partner Rejoicing in his presence. Can you think of me living myself. Rejoicing in my thoughts of you? Here am I in the air with wings waxed; Yet I'll not fall down to fragments. Know you? I am to lead my life myself, But with thoughts of you! For Loved I thee, still I love thee, Ever I'll love thee. (Young Ren sheds tears) Sweet Flance! My tears are not of my loneliness sans thee; But born of bliss within me with thoughts of you. (Curtain Falls)

Strength; such a simple word, such a powerful meaning. I despise those who think strength is measured by how much you can bench press, or what kinds of athletic activities you take part in. Strength is so much more than to be able to lift up a 250 pound weight, or to be the top notch wrestler. To be able to not break down, even when the world around you is crumbling apart, that is truly what real strength is. When you are able to go thru life day by day, constantly getting hurt by those around you, feeling lost without a place you belong, and still not have a single tear stream down your face takes true power; takes true strength.

Strength
Hate was the darkness tied in thick frayed ropes smothered in kerosene swung over the biggest branch and wrapped around my throat while strangers pulled and tightened it. It was the match lit that **** fire. Their rage burned my skin while choking me out like a sadistic wrestler. It was branding and dismemberment. All those children remember it. It was little trinkets of remembrance, bits of flesh, and teeth Any part they could take of me before and after I hung lifelessly from the most convenient tree. But if you think this is just some case of dark skinned history Then check the news and you will see they are still lynching me.

Lynching An American Tradition
Clenched fist Paced the little giant about the space endless body trembles Chronicles of palm wine infested nerves What is there in his name? So much she had stood firm for it Wanting his love against her kins wish Offerings to a deity One that snored with farts Evil had taken his vision the first strokes of his cane, the devil’s err The mighty wrestler had no match For at the other end stood a damsel A one in distress

paper tiger vs. DAMSEL in DISTRESS
What could be fun than going to the beach? It’s sunny and hot But we must find the right beach spot As I lay on the beach I notice a Male Bodybuilder walking across He starting the flex his bicep muscles at full force The male *** had applied oil, which made his body glisten under the sun But because I was at the beach, it was time for some water fun It was into the water for a swim It was full summer and time to dig in While I was in the water, that male bodybuilder was continuing to show off I saw the male bodybuilder kick sand in another male’s face I had to take a picture with no time to waste But the male bodybuilder kicked sand into the wrong male face Because the other male happened to big and massive with muscles as well by way of Wrestling This would be something to see, a male bodybuilder, and a male wrestler battling on the beach Forget the water, Beer and food Prepare the camera for a duel It’s about to be strength against strength Push and shove begin at first Then the Wrestler knocked down the male bodybuilder causing cheers being an outburst The male bodybuilder tried to get up and continue, but knew he was no match for the Wrestler The flex became perplexed The male bodybuilder had no choice but to walk away Now that was entertainment on the beach that day.

SUMMER *** MUSCLE VERSES SUMMER STRENGTH
There are some pro wrestlers Who always have to get all their **** in There are people who expect things from them And they give those things to those people But for the rest of us The match becomes predictable As we await their signature moves Which is why I think we need more wrestlers like Chris Jericho He never had to get all his **** in He served the story Not his glory He displayed the petulance of man And showed us how we can say the right things In the wrong way Yes, we need more wrestlers like Chris Jericho Someone who can host a talk show or headline Wrestlemania Someone who can be comedic or vicious We need people who understand the importance of looking foolish As well as the obligation to maintain an edge And people who can mentor the rookies While hanging with the veterans Yes, wrestling needs more people like Chris Jericho People who don't depend on wrestling He makes music And has a podcast Avenues being paved For the crossroads many wrestlers face Between business, art, physicality, and mentality Where the road being left behind is physicality It is hard to watch people hang on for the business Yes, the world needs more people like Chris Jericho He never cured a disease Neither did he make one He's a performer who creates He creates for the benefit of himself and others He's not a wrestler who has to get all his **** in He understands signature moves can become crutches On the path to a boring finisher

I dated a wrestler, Mom liked him,because he was white and had red hair like me He bought me things, even though I didn’t ask He carried my books to class, and opened the doors He held my hand and sometimes grabbed my *** But I didn’t mind because I’ve been taught Through society that when things are bought ****** payments are what females give with no afterthought So with much gratitude I sent him a **** And he send it to the whole school Starting with the wrestling team, But some of them were football players so they sent it to their team So on and so forth until the extreme Sexualassults were happening constantly Hallways turned into a runway of grabs and brushes against my *** Some even slipped a dollar into my pocket as payment for the peak When a **** of lingerie for a nice guy turned into a beacon that I’m a ***** People starting victim blaming me, ‘you shouldn’t have done that’ And the principle doesn’t care He overheard from a group of boys He got the picture and had it printed sitting on his desk, “This is chidpornography if I see you sending this again you’ll be in trouble” I realized no one was going to defend me and so the strong women I am known to be Hid, when I need her strength the most Once confident head held high, I try to blend in with the crowd I changed the way I dressed into sweatshirts and baggy pants But they continue because it’s not the way I dress, but that I’ve become inferior And the open palms that graze me burn with masculinity ~Emma Rose

So lethargic Victim of calumny Ruptured appendix Constantly rebuked On the pursuit of happiness   Receiving flack So pusillanimous Looking for something cathartic   Fight with yourself When your're your own worst enemy Leaving everyone scratching their heads And hanging on every word Smoke 'em if you got 'em First impressions are my worst impressions Bad decisions and fallen angels Pedantic stipulations Derogatory semantics Fight with yourself When your're your own worst enemy Leaving everyone scratching their heads And hanging on every word Smoke 'em if you got 'em Review the glossary Check the index It's a lost cause The cut throat is fighting The masked wrestler on a tugboat They're both wearing Hawaiian shirts Fight with yourself When your're your own worst enemy Leaving everyone scratching their heads And hanging on every word Smoke 'em if you got 'em -Tommy Johnson

i love stumbling upon advice from wizened sages, who'd 'semble the tao of writing decent poetry into a clever, lengthy monologue read years earlier (just a few), it might save me a hundred odd embarrassments that, today, bear my name like the time my kid balled his fists up 'cause i said so but got knocked down, again, by the playground bully not a Quakerly thing to do... i'm still learning, too (maybe i didn't teach the right stance?) or perhaps we learn more by our failures; my little boy's muscular, a confident wrestler, now... gets along with everybody - go figure and he writes pretty good poetry - all by himself.

My darling you could keep my heart in your locker but your Dad is a wrestler, your brothers are Dockers, so on our hot lovin' they have put the mockers 'cause I don't have the guts to face violent cockblockers. You like to take selfies You sure like to ROFL You taught me of two girls, one cup and blue waffles Your knowledge is endless on things such as these If only your brothers weren't so hard to please. They think I'm a man ***** a bounder, a cad, a love shy lothario, a bit of a "lad" on this I won't argue, the point is well made but I'm young (ish) and ***** and like to get laid. They think you're an angel but that's not the case 'cause the photos you sent me were not of your face....

In the wild free ghetto night Where would ya wanna be but here? With god and the angels and love so bright! I walk these streets in complete  awe I'll be here walkin in a thousand years •• Baby rockin in the cradle Cradle rockin on the window sill So very high above the street •• Hey hey mama here come Jesus Got a sack a loaves and fishes Jes for you •• Ain't lynched a cowboy from this tree in 100 years But it gotta couple a negroes back in '63 •• Help help!! I ain't suffering from affluenza & I need some bad ! •• My face ! And most a you ain't seen it! OH MY GOD! •• A street lamp is a beautiful symbol Of Somethin                                                        (Over there ----- In the dark By the alley where the stained old newspapers blow Round and round And little ragged boys curl up to sleep •• Star light star bright Thru the chem trails of the night •• I mean In the garden of Eden before the apple eatin Didn't adam at least think eve had a cute *** •• In college we were supposed to write an essay on the differences between bein a priest and a professional wrestler but I couldn't think a nothin •• In the wild free ghetto night Where would ya wanna be but here ? All the angels child bright God is seen on every EYE not afraid to shine or cry

What I don't seem to understand is... before you become a man and everyone cradles you, holds you by the hand and fills your thoughts with these dreams and aspirations, (no exaggerations...just genuine life expectations) but nothing is impossible, you are fresh. Not to death, but from birth. A brand new mind that has yet to be tarnished.---- Through adolescence, you start to learn adult lessons. Cowboys are no longer real... President's have to wear a tie! And if I become a stuntman... then I'll probably die. I can't be a wrestler on TV if I actually fought? I need...what!?...on my SAT's to become an astronaut? Reality, Gets In. Our Ways, Set In. Goodbye Dreams, Goodbye Imagination.-- *"Today you are eighteen years old, you are an adult."* God, do I hate the way they say that. An elongated "u" as if emphasizing the key component that I am an, "adddduuuult" Then to agitate my irate sense of frustration they ask my for my declaration: "Now, just what you want to do for the rest of your life???-- You don't have time to think. This is it, hurry. Choose. Now! Did you figure it out? No...? Now you're already behind! Wasting mine and your own time.--" Time...the only thing that remains omniscient. Time...the real gift to represent the present. Time's up. School's over. Time to get a job, a good ole' nine to five. But, I can't listen to that: For I know that it's lies. I know sitting in an cubical in an office drinking water from a cooler pretending to be cooler will be my own personal demise. I believe everybody has hopes and dreams. From the oldest person alive to addicted drug-phenes. Never write a person off by social means. Never let the American Dream become the American Scheme. All of us have our own devine-mind. Life's a playground, don't *** on the slide. Re-capture that child-like spirit. If they tell you: You Can't.-- Don't Hear It. Jump out of the line! As the rest watch from behind. No more: Stress. No more: Fear. Disregard all: Turmoil. "You must be the change you wish to see in the world." .Peace.

Stories are just another way of lying to children. I could say I've lived in another country for the past three years. Which one? Irrelevant. But they could speak english, and that's all that matters. I once wrote a letter to the president. He took a quote from me and put it in his speech, taking full credit! But of course I let him for the good of our country. Did you know, stories don't have to have beginnings or endings? I became a professional wrestler. How? Irrelevant. All that matters is that you keep the audience entertained. Nothing. Else. Matters. And one more thing. Those Croc shoes.. What the **** were they thinking?

Something has changed. A plate tectonic has shifted inside my heart, Rebuilding the mountain that she and I used to climb together. Just seeing her face again reminded me of all the good times. They outweighed the bad times, Like a Sumo wrestler outweighs a small child. I search valleys and hills For the words to tell her That I miss the way her eyes light up And how her smile makes the pain go away, Faster than three doses of oxycodone. It is incredible how easily I am falling back in.

Whatever happened to following your dreams? Performing magic for sheer entertainment, Or making it to the big league and playing for your team At what point did it all come crashing down? when did you say ***** my dreams*" just because it was a profession that seems to be run-down I once dreamed of performing as a wrestler in the squared circle, then i realized that in life it isn't a straight narrow road a plethora of ups and downs, and gigantic sacrifices here and there Now I am only a quarter of my dream holding on to it, hoping that the actual things did not matter everyday I'm afraid of falling off, like I'm walking on a beam In the not so distant future--what happened? Will turn into It Happened! And when it does you will see it actually happen.

I’m not good enough to write this poem. these ******* words won’t come. here I am, feeling like a dried **** on the grass— all hard, white and shriveled obstinately sitting there, surrounded by all that lush green. this resistance is a real ************ sitting on me like a sumo wrestler, smiling in its power over me. looking down on me and controlling me effortlessly. *“you can’t write poetry, you’re a nobody. a real lukewarm leftover special. no one will ever love you. no one will ever like you. no one will ever see you. no one wants you to succeed. no one wants to read your poetry. don’t waste your time doing something you’ll never be good at. you’re not good enough. you’re not strong enough. someone like you could never be someone like that. someone like you could never do something like that. someone like her would never love someone like you. you’re gross, nobody wants to look at you. stay home. don’t do anything. don’t even try. give up.”* I mean, this guy’s got a million of these bumper stickers and he slaps them all over the inside of my car all day, every day— that is, when he’s not using my chest as a seat cushion. it’s gotten to the point where I now can’t see out of my windshield. I just wanna go somewhere but he won’t let me see where I’m going. he won’t stop talking. I can’t hear the music anymore. I don’t know where I am. I can’t breathe. I just know that this car feels more like solitary confinement than freedom and the a/c stopped working a long time ago. I think I need to stop the car. I need to open the door and step out into the light. I don’t even need to take off the bumper stickers, I think I just need to walk for a while— move at my natural rhythm again. like children do before we start in on them. before we start building their car around them and teaching them to believe in it. this is you. you are this car. except when you’re alone, then maybe you can leave the car but never in public, never in front of other people. this car will protect you from them, from the world— from yourself. hide in it. well, I left my car on the side of the road some ways back with the keys in it and a full tank of gas. the door’s open, take it if you need it. hell, take it if you want it, I don’t give a **** just don’t try to pick me up in it if you ever catch up.                       signed,                                                                   nobody P.S. watch out for the fat guy in the diaper.

*change is a constant motion in life's instant organic factory of growth thus the folds at the back of my head are a recent intrusion against my image so are the hairs in my ears and in my now dilated nostrils you used to have these lovable dimples and a delectable bounce in your walk but now all you ever do is talk and talk about the fictional excellence of your life and how you're much sought after even in this, the twilight of your days head bald as an egg walk a dawdle mouth a dark cavern physique like a sumo wrestler memory like a closed book and demise like a meteor will i know you when i see you again? my heart has kept you frozen and young*

when i see you again
My first wife went with a guy called Bob, The carpet cleaning guy, The second left with a man called Rob, She said I was far too shy, The third, an exotic dancer, I Had met dancing round a pole, And she took off with a guy called Sly With a band called ‘Rock ‘n Roll.’ I never seemed able to keep them Once I’d signed on the dotted line, For everything in my bank account Would suddenly be, ‘That’s mine!’ They’d take the house and they’d take the car And they’d take my only suit, The one that I had married them in, (I’ve never been that astute!). So I swore off women and wedding bells, And lived in a boarding house, I thought I’d keep myself to myself, Was quiet as any mouse, The landlady was a tall ash-blonde Who would prowl outside my door, At ten each night she would want to fight, ‘Come wrestle me on the floor!’ She’d married a German Wrestler, Whose name was ‘Attack-Me Karl’, He’d watch for tenants, flirting his wife, And then you would hear him snarl, So I’d keep the lock on my door up-tight When his wife tapped on my door, ‘I’m not going to let you in tonight While Attack-Me Karl’s abroad!’ I met Elaine in the common room Where she made me toast and tea, She’d wait ‘til it was quiet as a tomb, Come over and sit by me, She said that I fascinated her, For I’d not even made a pass, And Sundays, she would follow me out Sprawl next to me on the grass. She told me she was free as a bird, Was anyone’s there to choose, She’d drop her top while sunning herself While I stayed lost in my muse. She said divorce was a terrible thing That marriage was sanctified, I told her I’d not marry again And she lay on the grass, and cried. I moved to live in a river flat And she moved right in with me, I said, ‘You come and go as you please,’ And gave her a duplicate key. We’ve lived together for twenty years And she’s never looked at a man, But marriage has never been on the cards, It’s not been part of the plan. She stays because she can walk away, She stays because she is free, She says she’d love to be married again, While I say, ‘Not to me!’ I think that women are too perverse To be held to an altar vow, She has no genuine hold on me Though I love her, even now!’ David Lewis Paget

I have never met you And you don't even know I exist But you have cast a spell on me From which it would be very difficult to recover Your eyes blaze with an intensity That can even melt steel Your smile is so beautiful That it cannot be surpassed Even by that of Mona Lisa Your laugh is so musical That even the songs of AR Rahman Would pale in comparison Your hairstyle is an art in itself Your dress sense is so impeccable That it would put even the finest Italian designers to shame And last but not the least We come to your acting A Sri Lankan Tamil dancer *** revolutionary In the movie "Jagame Thanthiram" A humble and yet powerful boatwoman In "PS1" and "PS2" A fierce wrestler with short hair Forced to become a submissive housewife with long hair In "Gatta Kusthi" And finally A teacher dealing with troublesome students As well as impending layoffs and rejected marriage proposals In "Archana 31 Not Out" Given any kind of role, you play it to perfection Born with oodles of natural talent You nevertheless refuse to rest on your laurels And put your heart and soul Into the profession which you hold so dear You are an inspiration to one and all Forced to do an MBBS By your extremely conservative parents You have nevertheless the courage To break free of the shackles placed on you And pursue your own dreams What's more, the risks you have taken off Have ultimately paid off You are the numero uno of present day Mollywood And flying high in Kollywood as well Yes, you have cast a spell on me But it was a spell, that I refused to resist And rightly so

It was only fifty quid to join. Looking For An Affair. So is the girl next door. What I could do with the girl next door. Joined immediately. Met big Mary the wrestler. Lost that fight. Moved onto Jill who told me it was such a thrill. Told me her life story twice. Rechecked website just to make sure I didn't get affair mixed up with affliction. Third time lucky, met Jasmine, her husband didn’t understand her, fantastic I thought, now we’re talking. Three hours later we were still talking. So double rechecked website just to see if I was due a counselling fee, complained no end to them. Was promised immediate action, they would hook me up with sultry Sandra. So anyway it was a real shock when I met the wife, who I certainly would’ve demanded an explanation, if a watertight alibi was at the ready. The no wonder I need a woman cos you’re never around just didn’t seem appropriate at the time, and for once she was lost for words. So anyway, we decided she would join another website. I would take up counselling full time.
