I swore off doing a "Z's poetry thread" and those "Ask Z"....... it seemed silly
so now i'm posting a
lot and figured i'd post them all here.. make the site a lot cleaner. soooooooooooooo this is where i shall post my drivel. comments not only appreciated, comments wanted.
now remember. i am no poet in any fundy way, i write what i write when i write if i write how i want.
so anyhow. let's do this.
here is something i did on an old BBS in 2k. i have cross posted some from here so now i'll do the reverse. here goes
long ago god sent his seed to earth
deep inside mom's womb I came forth
pissed off, then smiling, then blue
how I lived with the attacks god only knew
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god never cares to tell you of your doom
at age 9 I got around
but a decision I did make
50-50 chance to live
I lived.
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god didn't see the need to speak of doom
at 12 I freaked and had pneumonia
I got so sick I almost went in a coma
I really never understood how you could only be awake one hour a week
but I made it
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god decided to ignore my doom
around fourteen I lost a nephew to SIDs
got my heart broken and a grandfather dead
to this day I don't know how it felt
too numb
god sent his to seed to my mother's womb
god held his breath, mentioning not my doom
16 years old
was doing well
had a job and part of my heart back
then off to trachville
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god sighed and shushed me, speaking not of my doom
22 years old
a few material possessions and a name
I am seeing the light
I want that flame
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god didn't even know if I was doomed
god looked down
saw a family of four
but my parents wanted one more
so god sent me to be adored
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god just kinda smiled and said ‘day by day, son, you'll get there soon”
9 years old I met my best friend
god held my hand too
50-50 chance to live
I did
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god said no one should know his doom
at 12 I almost died
but the whole time the supernatural by my side
my parents and best friend there too
I didn't let the demons claim my doom
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god blinked and never mentioned doom
at 14 I lost a lot
but it opened my eyes
reality hit me
I learned to fight
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god whispered to us that maybe there is no doom
age 16 I beat every odd possible
and got through hell
I listened to the pumpkins
got my head going
met Lacinda
and learned who my friends were
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god wanted me to shut up, bent on my doom
now I see
after years and years
if you dwell on a movie's credits to hurry up, you miss the big picture
if you watch your die or chips you loose the joy of the gamble
if you wait for the last breath you miss the millions that mattered
god sent his seed to my mother's womb
god then told me to live and to hell with doom
