Thought it would be fun to see what you all come up with on a whim. Try not to think about it too much; the spontaneity is what makes it fun!
Mine:
Darkness on sunny days, brightness in the dark. Every day.
The poems I wrote, I love 'em but I'm broke.
Vainly struggle
Against ill intent
Until we recede
Into oblivion
darkness falls on old days of life of a fool
Fuck this shit
I want out
Let me go
Home
Written like a man at work on a slow day!
We need rain, I’m told.
It rains, complaints grow tenfold.
The rain disrupts the soil, the soul disrupted in turn.
Cool wind blows
Autumn’s herald harkens
Balls sweat no more
No poem has ever instilled such wistful hope in me before
And as the leaves fall, I am falling for them.
Roses are dead, Violets are dead, I suck at gardening.
With practice makes… ah, yes, of course, more dead flowers.
😭 nooo I can change
Listen! Listen! The Cats Pissin… Where! Where! Under The Chair…
What even is a poem?
I never understood art really…
I see what you did there sir
Don’t tell me
What to do
You’re not my dad
Shit, ten words spot on
Fucking fuck. Fuck me dude. Fucking hell I swear. Fuck
Dude I cracked lol
That’s fucking beautiful, dude.
You’ll wish you’d chosen
not to leap
right…
about…
now
…funk
soul
brother.I heard this.
As my life flashes before me,
I suddenly love it.
everything you do matters, except all the bathroom splatters. shit.
They matter to me when I go in there to pee.
Calm and contented
For nothing happened today.
I am satisfied
Every day is another test. I forgot my #2 pencil.
And yet, with no pencil in hand, wisdom is espoused.
Seriously, this one was great. You should remember it always.
“#2” is two words. But dropping either “I” or “pencil” would work.
