    First Poem

    For those who look at my profile, you'll have read this.
    I didn't know there was a forum genre for this.

    Wrote this when I had a breakdown at a music session.

    ===

    Trashbin

    Trashbin
    Filthy trashbin
    What did you do
    to deserve so much
    trash? bin
    Clean yourself

    Wrappers
    Bits and bobs
    I attract
    the wrong crowds
    Mounds

    Trashbin
    Lonely trashbin
    In a house
    By a bench
    By a door
    Thump
    Find a friend

    At night
    A light
    Bathroom
    But nothing
    for me
    Tee-

    -rashbin
    Quiet trashbin
    Silent trashbin





    Bin
    Fin

      Re: First Poem

      Wrote a second one, reusing first thread

      ===

      Lunch

      Was sitting at a table.
      Nothing in particular about the table.
      Four legs and a top white from what was either paint or a sheet of cloth.
      Pseudo-oriental styled restaurant with waiters and waitresses well aware of me acknowledging its pseudo-ness.
      Ordered a coffee.
      Didn't order grumpy and vile looks but got them anyway.
      Moments later a cup, more resembling a bowl, apparently filled with coffee, descended on that tabletop with four legs underneath it.
      I say "apparently filled" because my cup slash bowl contained boiling water with coffee grounds nestling at the bottom, forming a nice brown sludge that I would otherwise appreciate at the bottom of my coffee.
      A plague of green specks also found a home in this bowl.
      Sloshed the caboodle about a bit.
      Left it for what it is.
      Walked outside to the parents who were smoking on the patio.
      Either tobacco or embarrassment, not sure which.
      A windscreen just low enough not to give any protection.
      Brother was there as well, but is of no importance to this story.
      "The waitresses are all giving compliments and loving looks but none to you", one of them said.
      You can decide who did.
      Mother suddenly gained wide eyes.
      "Look!", mother said, pointing at an approaching streetcar.
      "My machine keeps beeping when the streetcar comes by".
      Her device beeped.
      A red sun rose.

        I like them. It's like asking the question 'what would a poem written by Jack Dee look like'.

          Slightly more conventional poem, lyrical

          ===

          Flowerbed

          We went to a flowerbed
          a flowerbed with scent
          yet your hand, away it went
          here I stand, unspent

          I went to a flowerbed
          a flowerbed with scent
          I stood there, hand in hand
          it was never meant

          Breezes blowing, breezes blowing
          left here without you
          breezes blowing, breezes blowing
          will you take me too?

          You went to a flowerbed
          a flowerbed with scent
          yet my hand, away it went
          sent to wonderland

          We went to a flowerbed
          a flowerbed with scent
          side by side, but different land
          touching hands, we can't

          Breezes blowing, breezes blowing
          left here without you
          breezes blowing, breezes blowing
          will you take me too?

            Re: First Poem

            a quick rendition of your last poem.
            pardon my singing, not exactly my style.

            https://soundcloud.com/frank-munoz/the-flowerbed

            changed some partials and rhythms in the melody
            was gonna make some art but lazy

            Instrumental for those who sing better

              So damn emo

              ===

              Growth

              Faces laced in cloth
              Carrying the load
              Crushing footsteps
              Prints in the dust
              Barren white road
              Leave, they must

              Hear the groan
              Of the rope
              Here they hang
              Past selves

              Left and forgotten
              Unwanted ways
              Pierced the mouth
              Stitched the skin
              Hollow gaze
              Husks as thin

              Hear the groan
              Of the rope
              Here they hang
              Past selves

              Thousands in line
              Next is mine
