Some poem i wrote

[JacobF]

I may be setting myself up for a face plant by posting this, considering all the quality poetry on here, but i'll give it a shot.




There’s nothing like a platoon breakfast,
mealy-mouthy goodness,
to settle that crippled siren’s tune.

It digests like budding seedlings
during the flan-and-berry evening,
while the night stews where no one dare goes.

Then it tip-toes in,
with a dog-lipped grin,
and with one bludgeon it pounds with formal fury.

At least the breakfast was for champions,
with that good ol’ same ol’
rusty penny taste.

[JacobF]

Here's another one. It's simple, but I sort of like it.



I guess I like its picket fence
And the borogroves across the way
It looks nothing like the ad, though
I think it’s seen better days

Those hedges could use some snipping, too
With a trusty store-bought vorpal blade
The garage door is bruised and weathered
With basketball beatings and donut crumb glaze

This isn’t for us, I surely know
We’ll depart and buy another home
But those people sure look sad
As we leave their home with a snicker-snack

Have you ever listened to the band At the Drive In? Your words resemble the style they use in creating their lyrics. I prefer the latter poem, its imagery is astounding and unique, but both are wonderful and I hope to see more from you!

Thanks. Nope, I've never listened to that band before. I'll check them out on youtube.
