MoNoPoLy asked in Arts & HumanitiesPoetry · 1 decade ago

commens, rate, feedback?

What am I but a beast

Who feasts on treats

Of trodden dreams

Who sleeps on streets

And meets the freaks

Shakes their hands

And smells their feets

Who seeks to reach

A solemn beach

And soaring mountains

With icy streams

Who’s weak from weeks

Of trying to teach

Lessons no one else will preach

And I cut the cord

To break the breach

Cuz sickly sights

Are not my thing

So breathe the air

That I beseech

Of souls too small to self achieve

In earnest light I view the leech

Whose slimy nature paints me green

And lowers all my self esteem

They laugh, in thought, at what I be

None too human,

Just a beast.

    You prepare promise, yet in a pair of circumstances you rather reached to make a rhyme and harm the temper of the poem slightly. shop writing, stumble on a poetry team and flow to open readings, participate. Poetry could be heard rather than study, that's a music of tonal characteristics which could evoke feeling while mixed with visions that others can relate to. whether somebody likes or hates your poems is unimportant . what's significant is that the poems evoke some variety of emotional reaction from the listener. stable success!
