I make this thread in honor of my good friend BadAss. He and I discussed how it would be nice to have more poetry, so he we go. Now we can all sit around drinking coffee and writing poetry.

I'll put a poem later.

Poets come

Feelings
I wish I could
Tie them up
In a knot
Throw them away
And become
Vulcan
Smart
Controlled
Stable

Instead
I am
The one
Tied up
In a knot.

In the spirit of Valentine's Day :)


SANG Solomon to Sheba,
And kissed her dusky face,
'All day long from mid-day
We have talked in the one place,
All day long from shadowless noon
We have gone round and round
In the narrow theme of love
Like a old horse in a pound.'

To Solomon sang Sheba,
Plated on his knees,
'If you had broached a matter
That might the learned please,
You had before the sun had thrown
Our shadows on the ground
Discovered that my thoughts, not it,
Are but a narrow pound.'

Said Solomon to Sheba,
And kissed her Arab eyes,
'There's not a man or woman
Born under the skies
Dare match in learning with us two,
And all day long we have found
There's not a thing but love can make
The world a narrow pound.'

Kisses
Like butterflies on my face
Showing me your love
Let's never leave this place.
Love
Swirling all around
I know I'm missing out
All my dreams hit the ground.
Tears
Fall as I long for you
To hold me in your arms
I love, but you have no clue.
Singing
To myself a sweet love song
To erase my terminal sadness
I've loved you for so long.
Peace
At last you can see
How much I need you
And how much you love me.
Kisses
Like butterflies on your face
Showing you my love
We shall NEVER leave this place.

Touched

Friend, I met a man
Who touched me as no one else can
He touched a place in my heart
That I had removed and set apart
For all of the blood and gore
That I had seen throughtout the war
I sat and listened for years and years
As I held hands and dried tears.

I was a friend to those that wanted
To tell the stories that kept them haunted.

"I killed a man," a man told me,
"And left the body for all to see
Like a warning to them all
That we mean business and are on the ball."

"I accidently shot a woman," said another
"And left some child without a mother."

One man yelled "I'll kill myself!"
As he grabbed a knife from my shelf.
I cried out, "No, don't do it!"
He laughed, "What more can life take? I say Screw it!"

Wars wreck havoc on our land
We deal with our own hands
But peace won't heal this at all
It'd be like smashing rocks with a ball

No, the answer isn't peace;
That's like calming water with hot grease.
The answer is UNDERSTANDING
And being a little less DEMANDING.

The answer lies within us all
And if one day it's you duty calls
Remember this poem as you fight
So you know you've done it right.

Ding-a-ling
The ice-cream man's a-coming!

Ding-a-ling
Hear the kiddies sing
Ding-a-ling!

Ding-a-ling
The backyard pool is filling!

Ding-a-ling
Hear the kiddies sing
Ding-a-ling!

And I'm glad to be back again.

So y'all come on, knock on my door

You know you're all welcome,
So COME ON IN!

Glad to be back, even if for only an hour and a half.
