Ghost of the Roast - By: Whoever needs another poem (It's pretty good)

The nurse walks in

With a ballpoint pen

She has bad news

But I refuse [to hear it]

She storms out in rage

But leaves behind her fair page

"Page," I murmured,

"deliver the bad news."

He glances at the report

And dies

I look and see on my own

My grief must have shown

I am out eating, I spot a

roast

I mistake it for a toast

Butter it up

Get jelly from a cup

The ghost of the roast

Hates me the most

POETRY

POETRY - ZACH STEWARD

P itiful excuse of artistic expression

O ptimistic beyond rationality

E ager to impose upon others

T eachings of restricted writing

R ealism abandoned

Y early re-visit of despair

A generic sports haiku: by bradley thomison

they play for results
regardless of their chances
atheltes play to win

the stage: by bradley thomison

life is like a play
everybody is an actor
the lines are pre-written
the actions, pre-determined
the ending pre-set
but one variable remains in the abilities of the actor.
who will be the main character?

Limerick Poem. By: Jessica Moran

So, uh. Let's throw something together.

The life of a man named Fred.
Edited.

There once was a man named Fred.
Who somehow has bumped his head.
It hurt real bad,
And he was sad.
Because then, poor old Fred, was dead.

I'm Just a little guy
Who's got a big fittle
That can wirte a poem and make it riddle
If it's about love
Or a flying dove

By: Nick Hudnall

When I sing I sound like Cee Loe
But the thing is he's not my hero
When he sings my head screams
So I blow a little stream

Vociferation

Vociferation
-Max Gottke

Avaunt! Be gone! So my eyes won't see,
You, and yours, what you've done to me!
I can see no longer, there is permanent shade,
Darkness, my soul, it ebbs and pervades!
But light comes in, tiny, hopeful and free
Shall I call it Your Majesty?
What say of God? Of Freedom? Of Hell?
We hear of these things and know them well,
So am I mad to claim this thing new?
This light, I'll call Love, and I'll give it to you.

The Bathroom By Kasey Sweeney

So much depends on...                                                             

The bathroom.                                         

Without it, there would be so much doom.
AH! The pain, the agony,
Of having to hold it all in.
Oh, so much depends on the bathroom.
It's dirty now, go get the broom!

The Contradiction Poem posted by: Justin Poe

Ladies and gentlemen, hobos and tramps,
I stand before you and sit behind you
to tell you something I know nothing about!
Admission is free, you must pay at the door;
So pull up a chair and sit on the floor.
The show is over, but before you go,
let me tell you a story I don't really know :

One bright day, in the middle of the night
two dead boys got up to fight
back to back; they faced each other;
drew their swords and shot each other.
A deaf policeman heard the noise
He came and shot those two dead boys.
If you don't believe this lie is true...
just ask the blind man; he saw it too!

                                Tears
                    By: Amber Monarch

                                  

The unbearable pain
aching, breaking, shattering.
Broken, destroyed and
gone.

Here they come, welding,
waiting for a breaking point.
So they can flow down,
rushing, streaming,
letting go of everything.

Clouding my vision,
vulnerability strikes as
well as depression and
confusion.
Leaving you lost...
clueless as of
what to do.

                  By: Amber Monarch

A nother day of pain, sorrow, and agony.

M onsters inside me, destroying whats truly left in me.

B reaking points, causing me to fall apart, showing weakness

E xhilerating heart races, anxious and terrified.

A once strong, fierce storm, Katrina,
Who destroyed a whole city and an arena.
She damaged, my life, my joy,
Forever does she annoy.

Random Couplets

By: Alex Summerville

Life is a war

Not a battle

Life is a commitment

Not a fling

Life doesn’t give up the first time it falls

It’s already prepared for the next trip

Life doesn’t fall apart, like so many believe

It simply removes the problems

Life isn’t prewritten, engraved into stone

It’s the paper and you are the pen

Life doesn’t decide whether it lives on past you

Your decisions are the footprints left in the sand

Life limits itself to nothing

You keep life from living

You live not when your heart is still beating

But those moments when it chooses to stop

You live not when you are breathing

But moments you must catch your breath

Life is not only in beauty

It’s even more alive in pain

Life isn’t getting everything you want

But learning to live with what you have

Life isn’t always getting whom you love

Sometimes it’s letting them go

Life is creating happiness through tears

Where only one mold fits you

Life is learning that at times you will fail

But at others you will also succeed

Life isn’t times when you’re talking

You live when you need not say a word

Life is being in your arms

And knowing they’re losing their grip

Life is the moments when life doesn’t matter

When nothing could keep us apart

Life is knowing it might not work

But attempting it anyway

Life is a war

Not a battle
