I don't usually ever write poetry but I had to write two for class. So here they are. The first I used the pantoum form, and the second the haiku form.


Nothing Here

There is nothing here for me anymore
I've exhausted all resources
I need to fly out that door
Like a leaf blown by nature's forces

I have exhausted all resources
No longer can I stay
Like a leaf blown by nature's forces
I have to fly away

I need to blow out that door
There is nothing here for me anymore


----------------------------------------------------

My Former Dream

My fingertips numb
Vibrations from the curtain
Breathe, ready to go

The music kicks on
The light hits me in the face
Adrenaline rush

Walk to the center
Four hundred eyes on me now
Laugh, make them angry

Laugh, they hate me now
'Booos' ring out like wedding bells
I am a success

Nice use of poetic form. Impresseive. I especially like the way you used the second stanza to reverse the significance of the "leaf blown by nature's forces" image. Less fond of the haiku, but that's probably 'cause I don't like the form as much.

the 2nd one is pure genius! :megalove:
i prefer that kind of poetry, it's without rhymes but it creates a special atmosphere and it carries you inside it.
i like that 'i am a success' in the end :lol: good job
Omnia enim stolidi magis admirantur amantque,
inversis quae sub verbis latitantia cernunt,
veraque constituunt quae belle tangere possunt
auris et lepido quae sunt fucata sonore.


Indeed, the stupid most admire and love all
that is scarcely discernible, hidden by abstruse words,
and accept as true all things that sweetly caress
the ear, and that are masked by a pleasant sound.

--Titus Lucretius, De Rerum Natura, circa 80 B.C.--

Thanks!!!

So people were saying that I should add more too it so it's more obvious what the 2nd one was about. I really don't want to though. There is a specific thing that its about but I enjoyed seeing people trying to figure out what it was and interpret it in their own way. So most likely I'll leave it the way it is.

Awesome stuff Rob! I have to say you have some poetry talent there. Can I ask you something? I thought of borrowing your poetry for my course paper work in poetry subject? Would that be alright with you? ^_^
