    This thread is not for you
    Your poetry is good

    ..... Terrible Poetry Thread

    Sorry, too aggressive
    Not enough passive
    My bad poetry can stay
    Your excellence must away

    Time to push popcorn
    Remind them why they need it
    What fresh hell is this

    What have I wrought now?
    Products no one needs nor wants
    Why did I sign up

    Pop, poppity, pop
    Pop

    Picture on a screen
    Your pixels are so pristine
    Image like a dream

    Damage has been done
    Supernatural feeling
    On the floor, reeling

    Render yourself to me
    Waiting for data from clouds
    Entry point willing

    Multiverse access
    Can no longer digress here
    Give yourself to me

    See you look at me
    Pretend it's reality
    Madness, imagine

    Render yourself to me
    To me, picture on a screen
    Curse the sky above

    Time marching onward
    Will I always feel this way?
    Useless and confused

    Life ebbing from me
    Alone, always outsider
    No worth now, undone

    Stuck always second
    Third, fourth or fifth on ladder
    Left behind again

    I am here
    alone like you,
    I suck at poetry...I don't get it, I just try to rhyme and make sense
    but I'll try for you!

    (random thought alert...can you put punctuation in the middle of a poem? @your_future_ex_wife)

    (public) shame...no fear!
    "I'm just new"
    I like to go off on a tangent, spewing my thoughts, hence
    here I am too!

    Ya, I used to get my bestie to write poems for me for English class in high school, we'd trade, I'd do her art, she'd do my english and math homework

    Ha! edit 'cause improving all the time :lol:

    Top hat and tails
    You only die once
    Unless you are zombi
    Or perhaps Vampiric

    Ears perked, sound befalls
    Crinkly bag opened, a treat!
    Trip human for some morsels

    Puts fish heads in your car
    Cat p00p in your shoes
    Revenge is sweet
    But doesn't smell so good

    Tiny slinky predator
    Stalk your prey across my floor
    Pounce, then nap, sleep some more.

    I like caffeine
    It is my favorite bean
    but don't make a scene
    when it makes your insides clean.

    I should like to die
    Under a pile of books
    Fulfillment from fantasies

    But not these books here
    They do not belong to me
    Husband, you're a hoarder

    Just admit it, dammit.

    You strut and pose like a proud peacock,
    Time and effort for a body sculpted,
    Preened and presented, abs like rock
    Better than Joe Public with fat erupted,

    Looking for that dream partner with looks to die for,
    A life time mate that you think will stick,
    Though you will always love yourself more
    Because basically you are still a p r i c k.

    Did I know about this terrible poetry thread? I feel like I must have, but I've forgotten about it which is a shame because I feel like this is my sandbox


    Falling into my own fire
    Inhaling my own smoke
    Killing myself
    with my refusal
    to let go of a dream
    I'll never know
    who I could have been
