I re-write this poem every year to keep up with whatever's new and trendy. It was once called the best poem I've ever written but I disagree. I just like the satirical humor yet seriousness in the call to action which is so easy to misinterept.

AN excersie for my Craft of Poetry class using quatrains. Semi-inspired by Sandy

I wrote a haiku once that said

"A love triangle

within a circle of friends.

Lots of lust, no trust"

This is basically just the extended version.

I finished this up in Feburary, but my philosphy for poetry has changed even more since then: really now I just want to tell my story; not to get famous.

This was written between 9/21/11 and 2/15/12. It's finished for the most part, but I'll accept any criticism and feedback that I get.

One of my favorites. One day I saw a butterfly stuck in a flytrap and it made me all poetic.

I wrote this when the Trayvon incident happened. But I only read it once and forgot all about it.

So here you guys go.

I was going through my folder of everything I've ever written and came out with this.

You can tell it's old just from the websites that I mention. Haha, I crack myself up.

A quick draft

about an unexpected romance.

To be continued.

I guess this counts as more of a rap.

It's really old,

but it's still all good.

Rought draft for CW class.

A story about the wonders of childhood.

This is dedicated to the end of the world?

Since I'm working on my book right now, expect to see me to post a few love poems that come from it. Here's one about the wind. The image I was trying to portray is something peacerful and destructive at the same time.

This is inspired from The Script's song. However, I have no rhythm (reason#4 I can't be a rapper) so the flow is completely different and doesn't fit the song. Lol, oh well, I tried.

I started this for my Creative Writing class. It's self explanatory.

Something quick I wrote while donating blood today

This isn't a diss, more of just a "I'm just saying"

I did this as a warm up for my Creative Writing class. I tried to find the picture, but Idk if it's online.

But I basically had to write off of a black and white picture of a woman and fist.

The lady could either be the victim or the fist. I chose victim

A project I did awhile ago where I personified something beautiful into a hideous, condescending beast...or something like that. It's probably better if you just read it yourself.

The space themed side B to Magnet Theory

An older piece written as a text message which explains the format and title.

This is a product of having a tiny college dorm

and listening to too much Cage the Elephant.

But it's self-explanitory.

The people who studied/were intersted in English in school will probably understand this better.

This single poem spraked the idea for my book, Combining two of my favorite things (love & language)

And yes...I know it's really corny lol

I took this from my other page.

This is something I wrote about a simple unrequited love.

My younger self's attempt at an allegory.

Inspired by the cliche "build a bridge and get over it"

You can tell this is old cause I start praying in the middle of it.

But anyway, it would still be new to you guys.

Enjoy.

Yay for more depressing stuff! I've really gone in the vault this time to gather up some of my older writings.

I don't rememeber when I wrote this exactly but it's inspired by a quote from Asher Roth's Sour Patch Kids.

It's like a child's plea for peace.
