    Yes... thank you..... a truly powerful poem.......... I've dug quite a bit into certain aspects of parapsychology and how I suspect they ultimately relate to the subject of abortion:

    NDE's, Walk Ins, The Helen Wambach Ph. D. research and the issue of abortion??????!!

    (.... in summary..... a very high level aspect of the human spirit - soul seems to have volunteered to go through the first trimester of pregnancy...........)

    Here is my poem about kitties, because they are my favorite animal and my favorite word.

    A house with no kitty is no home for me
    I'd like a kitty every place I could be
    If I remade the world I'd let kitties live free
    Kitties for president I'd shout sea to sea

    I found a midget in my couch and it granted me three wishes
    I asked for a snorkel, a sombrero, and something delicious
    But the joke was on me, I should have spoken more specifically
    Because what I got was Rosie O'Donnell wrapped in swiss cheese
    "I can't eat this!" I angrily snapped
    "It's fat and it's ugly! I'm sending it back!"
    "Plus I'm lactose intolerant! You didn't even ask about that!"
    So he gave me a pipe and sack full of crack
    He said, "Here, smoke that."
    I said, "Man, this is whack."
    "You're the worst midget ever."
    And I kicked him in the ballsack
    And shoved him back in my couch
    With the loose change and Cheetos
    Only to later discover
    I'd just met Danny DeVito

    Here's a poem I wrote in high school about how music in the right moments can be powerful.

    Power I feel
    Is not a jet or a tank
    It's not money in the bank
    It's not a flag or a gun
    Or a missile that can outshine the sun
    It's not about the weak or the strong
    Or a contact list a million miles long
    Power I feel
    Is a song

    I like to write haiku poems, maybe cause I'm part Japanese? I made my latest one my new signature.

    Abandon the dove
    and the eagle and the hawk
    for a painted bird.

    Last summer I wrote a fanfiction that followed the whole cast for 64 tumultuous days to an unprecedented ending.
    Recently I wrote about the primary focal point of the story in a 44-chapter novel form.
    What's my story about?

    It’s about time.

    It’s about crime.

    It’s about sex,

    Getting back with an ex,

    It’s about death and life.

    Someone sings “Mr. Jones, I want to marry your Wife”.

    It’s about songs and dance.

    Four characters go to France.

    Most action takes place in Ohio,

    But several people travel to Monaco.

    The climax takes place at MIT.

    There are some scenes in Washington, D.C.

    There are even two scenes in Uruguay.

    It follows dozens of people day by day.

    Some characters die, some characters live.

    There’s an adaptation of the Fugitive.

    Three young women get kidnapped and raped.

    Some people go to prison, then some escaped.

    No matter where they go, almost everyone sings.

    Some eat Chinese food, including chicken wings.

    It’s about humans, so they often are eating.

    They go place to place and have every kind of meeting.

    Some travel by plane.

    Some travel by train.

    There’s a motorcycle and several cars .

    Two sing “Night and Day” while looking at the stars.

    there’s a lot about psychology,

    With a touch of theology.

    There are Protestants and atheists, and many a Jew,

    An agnostic, undecideds and a Buddhist too.

    It has scientists and doctors, nurses and teachers,

    Students and policemen, reporters and preachers.

    Some characters are black, some white and some Latina,

    And a sad, tender story about an Asian named Tina.

    Some characters are gay,

    But one switches for a day.

    It’s about all kinds of love.

    Some seek help from above.

    At two prayer vigils, some seek help from the Lord.

    Near the end there’s one line for Harrison Ford.

    Real people appear, Michael Bloomberg, John Boehner,

    Joe Manchin, Kitty Dukakis and Stephen and Robert Colbert.

    Some people laugh, almost everyone cries.

    An airplane crashes into three-foot fruit flies.

    The heroes of the story are Britney and Artie,

    But when they save the day, they can’t have a party.

    The ending is happy, but not for those two,

    Because there’s a final twist that will surely shock you.

    The story is as complete as any tale could be,

    And it’s what I think should have happened in the last two years of Glee.

    From afar and away nightly strife,
    of bad digestion and the days blight
    I can see clearly now.
    Over hill & daily spread
    a whip-poor will is heard ahead.
    Hiding it's head for whatever bread,is spread.
    To cluck and flutter,sometime utter
    Lonely,cries in the night.
    That Happy days from twilights gleam
    began as birdies sang,in teams.
    " It's hard to get by just upon a smile "
    Whether ground,in Air or ought
    I can see clearly now.
    Full of Grace,full of woe,
    but a child with far to go.
    Whether bonny and blithe,
    Life finds a way to take a slice.
    Eat hearthy and sleep tight,
    for tomorrow you may not delight.
    For Tonight may not turn toward
    Tomorrow or tomorrow or Today.
    It may just fly away.

    Anarchist improv

    Our Government
    Who knows what best
    We thank thy for knowing what is bad and what is best
    The roads, the schools and the doctors too
    Would cease to exist if it was not for you

    Our Government
    Ensuring money is always well spent
    Always ensuring we are all content
    Oh, government, my ggovernment

    Take my kisses, take my hugs
    I am so thankful you keep our kids away from drugs
    I am so thankful thy protect us from the thug and thief
    How could this be possible without our president, our fantastic thief.

    Even though I haven't much money the bank,
    I once again have to give you a big thank
    Because with out you I'd certainly be poor
    Of that I am entirely sure

    Then came that day,
    I asked why money keeps going away
    Every month, large amounts of my salary I lose
    I can no longer afford food or even shoes

    Why won't you help me?
    Thy all might governmentt in all thy grace
    That is when I realised
    You are the reason behind this awful disgrace

    ...Or something like that lol.

    Akiko

    When it was over, Akiko was gone.
    Hardly surprising.
    I feel broken, weary and faint.

    Our fight took place in my private garden,
    patterned after the Zen Gardens of Kyoto.
    It was a place of transcendent beauty,
    and tranquility...
    ...but no longer.


    My garden has been wreaked,
    it's patterns broken,
    order turned to chaos,
    the story of my life.


    No matter how hard I strive for inner serenity,
    I screw up.
    So why should I even bother.
    Yes I am a woman but,
    by nature I'm a fighter,
    a warrior,
    and I seem to like it and am good at it.


    However,
    a part of me wants to change,
    to grow,
    to temper the more savage side of me.
    Akiko seemed to want that too
    and thought I failed her.
    Worse, I failed myself.


    And yet,
    the patterns of life
    are as fluid as the stones I walk on.
    I reach down and smooth the stones.
    New patterns appear.
    What was once chaos,
    now becomes order.
    The wheel turns,
    and from this new order...
    ...peace?


    Perhaps that is the answer.
    The key is not
    winning or losing,
    It's making the attempt.
    I may never be what I want to be,
    ought to be,
    but how will I ever know,
    unless I try?


    The alternative is...
    ...STAGNATION,
    a safe but terrible form of death.
    Death not of the body,
    but of the soul.
    Some women may know what they are
    and accept it.
    This woman may know what she is expected to be
    but she,
    questions,
    dreams,
    changes,
    and grows.


    I loved you Akiko,
    with all my heart
    and you took my dreams from me...
    ...but only for a time.
    Because I am a woman!
    not your BEAST!
    ...a woman.


    You used me
    for your own selfish purposes.

    That mistake,
    will one day,

    cost you.​

    This old brown maple
    So bright the leaves
    Colors in splendid crisp dying
    Aging with the year, years
    Breath making a fog to fade the view
    Not diminishing the beauty
    Still in mind and spread across the dusted ground
    This old brown maple tree
    Deeper in the soil and soul than my thoughts can reach
    The carpet of fall does not feel like death

    Merely new life on hold for a moment.

    Hallo B.Larset my name is Dutchess2 and I wanted to introduce myself I just found what your doing anf I love that because I write and do poetry too I putt up poetry every Saturday on another site and now slowly people stat to get into it and follow it is fun to do and I have a big folder with poetry so I would like to follow you how do I do that..


    The Mirror.



    Who is that looking back at me,
    with cheeks still wet from tears.
    Why didn't I ever want to face,
    one of my biggest fears.
    I tried to hide in arrogance,
    and lived my life in a daze.
    For now I know without a doubt,
    this is the ugliest face.


    That face which stares right back at me,
    is there to make me see.
    That mirrors and just there,
    to torment girls like me.
    I am not pretty far from that,
    that is why I don't count.
    The best thing I could ever do.
    is never again to make a sound.

    perfect
    hideout
    from the

    too many eyes
    have seen

    that I'm so

    EXPRESSING ME

    blue don't
    touch my
    green
    because
    if I see you on
    the street
    then I see you're on
    my beat

    yeah
    **** the law
    **** the cops

    because a cop
    is a cop
    and you know
    we're all corrupt
    but if you
    touch a cop
    then it's more than
    touching us

    trust
    **** the law
    **** the cops

    IF THERE WAS A GOD

    if there was a god
    if there was a god
    would the planet seem to be
    a world of misery
    famine war disease
    people like property
    no rights to own your home
    no rights thereof indeed
    as they kick in as they please
    abduct the ones they seek
    murder in cold blood
    if there was a god
    to guide souls who're in need
    to give them belief
    a relief from men who
    think themselves a god
    even though they're not
    if there was a god
    if there was a god

    I
    was the one
    who was lost
    and found in
    my own thoughts
    I've laid bare
    and laid there
    before
    that I
    can't care
    yeah I
    can't care
    anymore

    no I
    is it me or is it you
    can't find
    give me reason to...
