A Helluva Story
Sat down with a cup of coffee, a piece of clear white and an ink pen, to write this poem, then a different one, and well, then... However, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't find the endings, so these are the three attempts of writing the same poem, each a different way and never finding an ending...
coffee comes in variety
-slow percolated coffee
-meticulous pods
-instant and high speed
on the run
I'm a pod kinda guy
I find the instant
watered down
and tasteless
the percolated
becomes
more of a chore
than a drink
pods though provide
that flavor
with a moment for thought
I was thinking, I like lifts
they're effortless in their flow
from one story to the other
Escalators are mad
all that virus on the black-belt
all the chewing gum taking a trip
from soles
Nike to Addidas
Though, I have recently found myself
looking through doors
in a attempt
to find a set of stairs
slower but rewarding
.
speed is a thing
when written by a non-writer
at a desk
on paper
by hand
it seems a bit cheeky
that a guy
with a crappy haircut
and an education that
excluded
talking about
politics
religion
and sex
would even dare
relate the
story!
Star trek left a hole
when the arm tattoo
came up, that girl didn't do
a single thing to be labeled
a tool
honestly, sometimes
reflections, sang it best
.
There once was a maiden so fair
Who sat in a cane rocking chair
Doing paintings, crafts and other arts
While reading words and novels in parts
While reading words and novels in parts
She'd bake fresh cupcakes and jam tarts
Discussing the world and the war
Talking tattoos her family wore
Talking tattoos her family wore
While reading words and novels in parts
This maiden took to all the hearts
of soldiers and statues, whose uniforms tore
Of soldiers and statues, whose uniforms tore
Talking tattoos her family wore
While reading words and novels in parts
This mai..
