The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

A large variety of poems


Loki Wyrd

Recommended Posts

I wrote a bunch of stuff last night. Some of them are fairly strange, some are fairly vulgar, and some just are. I suppose it would be asking a lot for you to read them all, but I'd appreciate if you bother to check them out. Thanks, and enjoy.

 

 

 

I Have

 

I have thought I was asleep

Only to find my eyes were open

I have seen things of poetic grace

Only to witness them be broken

 

I have not lived a long life

Though my years have run long

I have discovered many new things

Though my heart knows many are gone

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

Television Waves

 

Dead television waves are running

Through my head

They are trying to change

My channel,

But I don't wish to

Be changed

I am staying tuned, you

Selfish bastard!

Watch what I have

To offer

It's quality programming

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

Prince

 

I am a prince within

These walls of rock

Falling only to myself

On a bended knee

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

Dark and Stormy

 

I am a dark and stormy night

I shall rain down upon your head

 

My dark and clouds loom, a masked threat

Prepared to shake down the heavens

 

I shall wield my lightning

With it I strike you down

 

Do not tremble before me

Witness my power in all its glory

 

Be arisen

Be amazed

 

I am but a fleeting glimpse

Grasp for me whilst you can

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

A Lump (I think I like this one....read?)

 

I am a lump on a mattress

Which, I am told, is not good

But love is all that matters

I'm just terribly misunderstood

 

I try to offer you comfort,

And get repaid with scorn

I love you in my own way

You curse the day I was born

 

I have known you well,

And I think you have known me too

How could you get rid of me?

Don't you know I love you?

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

The Career For Me

 

I would like to be a doctor,

The man to turn to when you're ill

I'll do my best to make you worse,

And then stick you with a huge bill

 

Being a priest would be very fine

Though I don't do religion,

I do see God all the time

 

I could be a barber

The sound of scissors I would hear

I may get distracted,

But who really needs two ears?

 

The police would want me on their side

I may break the law,

But think of all the drugs we'd find

 

I would like to be a butcher,

So I could cut up meat

Then I could butcher up my family,

And sell them on the street

 

Writing would be fun to do

I'm even literate,

Giving me a head start over you

 

I could be a man-whore

I'd do my clients well

Then I would slice upon their bellies,

Using their intestines to bungee jump to hell

 

Music has always been the place to be

Smoking a joint

Won't you come sing with me?

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

Intoxication and Masturbation (this is vulgar, if you couldn't figure it out...you've been warned)

 

I am to be instructed

In the fine arts

Of intoxication

 

And I am told that

Stress is relieved

With masturbation

 

...so...

 

When I went out

To a party

I got plastered

 

Then I went out

On the lawn

To be mastered

 

...well...

 

I was well gone,

With myself hanging out

When the lights came on,

And the people did shout

 

The police were there

Stressing everyone out,

But I didn't care,

I just sat about

 

...finally...

 

I must say I do agree

I sat here, the cops didn't see

Because I was completely without stress

Now all I have to do is clean up this mess

a little harsh for my tastes... but you have a strong voice... particularly in your first 4 poems... you articulate your self well enough, though it'd be interesting to see what you could do if you pushed a little deeper... i bet you tell crazy antedotes in real life...

"what are words for...(missing person)"

I churned all of these out in the period of an hour, when I was tempting the sandman to come take me away. :)

 

Sometimes I just like to have fun with writing, and this was certainly one of those instances. For me pushing deeper usually results in a dark state of mind, not always resulting in writing anything legible.

Thank you for your comments, as always, they are much appreciated.

I wrote this back when I first had begun to write poems...only 6 months or so. :) Well, I think it needs a lot of work, but I just stumbled upon it so I thought I'd post it up.

 

 

What evil lurks on such a night as this?

 

 

Whiling away my days

Acting as if in a daze

Awake am I, during the depths of the night

Staring into my monitor, glowing bright

 

 

Surfing the web

No reason why

Finding anything that will hold my interest

Looking at things I'll likely never buy

 

 

Chatting with others

More comfortable speaking with my fingers

Speaking with those I could see in an instant

Of meeting any of the others, in my mind doubt lingers

 

 

Listening to music

Headphones on

Tapping my feet along with my favorite songs

Volume turned up, to me the rest of the world is gone

 

 

Leaning back in my chair

Into the monitor I still stare

It's been too long since I've read

Why does my mind and body not tell me to go to bed?
