In my school we had to write poems in only twenty minutes. Thought I'd share with the forum. The first one is where the theme is that I am supposed to "suppose" something weird, or surreal that I want to happen. And per usual I changed off the topic a bit, but still the basis. The second is suppose to be a list of things I believe in, or statements about myself. I made a list of rules for myself. Enjoy.
Dystopia.
Suppose, that everything was right,
That the world lived without fault.
With everything in black and white
And plainly clear, no challenges, or
Hardships, tradgedies or evil.
A world of an everlasting sun
And porcelain smiles
Many wish for this, and
if asked most all would say the same.
They want an end to the starvation.
The wars and violence. An end to
Evil and it’s wicked shadows,
So they may bathe in the light of their
florescent sun and keep on their
plaster smiles.
Am I vile? Am I wicked?
To wish for the hardship and
Challenge and merit, to strive for
perfection, not for the end, but the
journey? Am I the
heretic for wanting the
burning sunlight and the earned
joy, and not wishing for the free
bliss of all?
I suppose I am.
Rules
1.)Do not speak for the purpose of speaking
2.)Just because something is a quote doesn’t mean it is a good quote
3.)Feign Predictability
4.)Be fluid, consistency to a certain way can be blinding
5.)Look up. Literally
6.)Question everything, especially yourself
7.)The morals of others are not your own
8.)Learn control
9.)Anger, prejudice, irrationality and corruption. These are the only sins
10.)Look behind you. Both figuratively and literally
11.)Have healthy amounts of paranoia
12.)Carefully picked out arguments can be easily ignored
13.)Everything has a backstory
14.)Being nice should not be gifted, it should be expected
15.)You will be hit in your blind spot
16.)Prove your point
17.)Strive for perfection, but destroy it if you come close
