I Am, a Poem About Myself

[FlakeNoir]

Were there others? Maybe they deleted them?

I think there might be two of these threads... I moved this one into Games a few days ago when it was first created, but do remember seeing (sometime after that) what I thought was this thread in another area of the board, maybe Self Promotion?
I'd thought that Marsha might have moved it there. But now I suspect there actually might be two of them.

Edit: There were two threads, I have merged the (above) posts with the thread in Self Promotion.

I wonder how I got here
I hear the pass of time
I see nothing but these four walls
I want to reach for the sky
I am stuck

I pretend I am happy
I feel trapped
I need to break free
I worry no one will set me free
I am stuck

I understand everything
I say nothing
I dream of summer nights
I try to remember
I hope to forget
I am stuck

I wonder why dog's can't speak
I hear them all try
I see the stupid cat
I want to make him cry
I am the SwiftDog

I pretend not to hear master's voice
I feel them watching me
I need to make a choice
I worry they will never see
I am the SwiftDog

I understand therefore I am
I say no way man
I dream of swimming in the sea
I try to be
I hope to see
I am the SwiftDog

An ode to a mod

I wonder if the board’s on afire
I hear things have gotten dire
I see my paycheck every week
I want it to take me to Martinique
I am so counting down those days to retire

I pretend the fights will not transpire
I feel it only makes me a liar
I need another long vacation
I worry if I can last the duration
I am so counting down those days to retire

I understand the muck and mire
I say too often “enough... cease-fire!”
I dream of peace and love and joy
I try my best to not let them annoy
I hope 900 some odd days do quickly expire
I am so counting down those days to retire

 

[blunthead]

I wonder if I will matter.
I hear their words.
I see their smiles.
I want to believe,
I am important to someone.

I pretend to be stronger than I am.
I feel fragile.
I need to know.
I worry I will never realize that
I am important to someone.

I understand my clock is ticking.
I say, please slow down and wait for me.
I dream of times before and
I try to hold them in my mind.
I hope the future embraces me and lets me know,
I am important to someone.

This is really nice.

And sad... (yours was too)

I'll try to write a more positive one. I don't always feel like that. I think.

We all feel this way sometimes I think.

It's fiction. Everything I write is fiction.

(I'm actually an 82 year old grandmother of 12, named Agnes, living in a retirement home in Florida. )

Like how to plant your enemies next to the rose bushes? That would have to be one big ole rose garden.

Oh thank god, "enemies", had to reread that one, weak coffee and dirty reading glasses I guess..to be honest it was whole lot funnier the first read, confusing, butt funnier

Did you think someone would plant their enemas? Where?

This it true, only a trip over NC’s Cascade Falls followed by a float down the Linn Cove Viaduct. A chop and drop vacation? Not quite the southern hospitality I’ve always heard about.

Yes it is.
