Number 15

Does hope beat pain

Hiding the shame

Faith will remain

Believe not in vain

Love it sustains

I'm not the same

Number 14

I don't think I poem very well

I know there are much better poemers than me

They are way better at poeming

Their poems are all poemish and poemtastic

But I will still try to be the best poem writer I can

Poem poem poem poem poem

Also poems

Number 13

When words are wind

Look it up

Do a Google search

Don't use Bing

The may shed some light on the types of poems I have been writing.

Number 12

Sarcasm

Cleverly disguised

Cynicism

After writing this a friend informed me that sarcasm doesn't really hide cynicism very well. Ah well.

Number 11

Grinding

Unyielding

Pressure

Surrounding

Confounding

Pressure

In deep

I weep

Pressure

Who's there

Who cares

Pressure

Feel weak

Can't sleep

Pressure

One cure

Endure

Pressure

Number 10

Existential inconsistency

Superlative lucidity

Pervasive anonymity

Immaculate duplicity

Evasive tranquility and fleeting objectivity

Persistent anarchy

Unyielding misery

Belligerent antiquity

Machiavellian serenity

Territorial disharmony and Ubiquitous hostility

I made sure that my verses weren't four lines each this time.

Number 9

Everything fades

Everything breaks

Is there purpose

To the changes we make?

Inconsistency mocks us

Inconsistency holds

Locked in the inertia

When will you fold?

Hope eludes us

Hope fades away

The struggle to find purpose

How long will you stay?

It seems that I almost always have four line verses. It is hard to do anything else.

Number 8

You know what sucks about watching firefly? The fact that I can't watch seven seasons of it.

Number 7

I want to do something amazing

I want to be someone great

I want to change the world

But it is just too hard

It is easier to just watch TV

It is easier to just sit and wait

It is easier to just play video games

Don't even try, you won't get far

Number 6

I fear the darkness

I fear the silence

I fear the emptiness

I fear the violence

I see the anger

I see the sadness

I see the betrayal

I see the madness

I feel the failure

I feel the shame

I feel the heartbreak 

I feel the pain

Number 5

Have some participles

Breaking, bleeding

Hurting, needing

Thinking, feeling

Standing, kneeling

Hoping, healing

Hating, reeling

Falling, failing

Stalling, sailing

Number 4

I am somewhat weirded out by the fact that I have views from the USA and Germany. This blog has only been up for one day and it is not like I am sharing it with anyone. I guess if something isn't hidden people can find it. Also Blogger gives people the next blog option. Still... How?

Don't you just hate the triple dot? At least I only used it once.

Number 3

Poetry is poetic
But sometimes it's pathetic
Overuse can be symptomatic
Send me off to the medic

Number 2

Are people just really good at faking?

Where did they learn?

Why was I never taught?

Did I miss the class?

Will it be on the exam?

I don't want to fail again

Number 1

Is there purpose

Or only pain?

Arbitrarily striving

What do we gain?

It hurts inside

Why can't they see?

I try to hide it

Just stop looking at me

I'm forced to endure

Will my heart ever mend?

I patiently wait

When will it end?

The glass stares blankly

Who do I see?

Does hope even count?

Set me free
