View Full Version : Poems
Well im doing alot of this for english (poetry)
And i suck at it so i was wondering if you could give me ideas.
Also post your own poems if you want to.
Me and my mate made this one lol it's weird.
I am the Chinese cleaner
Clad in pink clingy gloves
Wiping down
Closed in a Westfield food court.
Any rubbish please?
Stuck in a low-paid job
Wearing a dowdy uniform
And comfy shoes
Inhaling chemical fumes.
Are you finished with that?
No, you don’t know my name
I am only another cleaner
Mopping up
Coca-Cola dams.
Can I take that for you?
Hearing the deadened radio
Listening to jabs of dialogue
I am their cleaner
Theirs.
Yes, madam, I’ll wipe that down for you.
Look at me!
Talk to me, please!
Don’t feel embarrassed. I am not a servant.
I eat lunch.
I go shopping.
I have a family at home.
We are similar.
It is only a job.

What's with you and being 'the cleaner'?
Try to add some rhymes.
And where's the rhythm?
And the imagery I can imagine is cleaning.

That poem is old and used a lot. The first two sentences had rhythm, but the last two don't. You can't have partially rhythm in a section.

Well you really should write something about kangaroo's.
Guaranteed A:
Roses are blue,
Violets are orange.
I couldn't think of anything that rhymes with orange.

Internal anguish
Despair
Knowledge tarnished
Many deaths
Yang loses Ying
Blue turns to yellow
Friends turn to enemies
Fire to water
June is snowed in
Increased poverty
Losers weep
Lined with gold
Read the first letter of every line.
Yes, I made it up myself :p

And the 7,5,7 or whatever it is, is not words, but syllables.

He was so old his bones seemed to swim in his skin.
And when I took his hand to feel his pulse
I felt myself drawn in. It was as faint
as the steps of a child
padding across the floor in slippers,
and yet he was smiling.
I could almost hear a river
running beneath his breath.
The water clear and cold and deep.
He was ready and willing to wade on in.
