Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau,

Some belonged to strangers, some to folks you know,

Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand,

To beautify the foothills, and shake the many hands



nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop

And an illustrated book about birds,

See a lot up there but don't be scared

"Who needs action when you got words"



finished with the mop then you can stop

And look at what you've done

What else should I be?

All apologies.

What else could I say?

Everyone is gay.

What else could I write?

I don't have the right.

What else should I be?

All Apologies.



In the sun

In the sun I feel as one

In the sun

In the sun

Married!

Buried!



I wish I was like you

Easily amused

Find my nest of salt

Everything is my fault

I'll take all the blame

aqua seafoam shame

Sunburn with freezer burn

Choking on…

I'm not like them

But I can pretend

The sun is gone,

But I have a light

The day is done,

I'm having fun

I think I'm dumb

Or maybe just happy



Think I'm just happy

My heart is broke

But I have some glue

Help me inhale

And mend it with you

We'll float around

And hang out on clouds

Then we'll come down

And have a hangover



Have a hangover



Skin the sun

Fall asleep

Wish away

Spoil me with love and care,

unconditional my respect is for you,

you give me all that you are…

Her voice,

so tranquil,

as the wolf howls

to the dark side of the moon



The clock stumbles upon Eleven

we unbearably struggle

for the remaining eleven,

for one last wish



Relapse of love,

wish yet erected,

her voice,

so tranquil,

her love,

so calm



Her eyes seal,

faster than the sun drifts away,

I embrace her close



Our lips lock,

we wish our last wish,

Her soul gone,

nothing left to… Continue

Oh, here
Will I set up my everlasting rest,
And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars
From this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last.
Arms, take your last embrace .And, Lips,
O you the doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss
A dateless bargin to engrossing death.

Her body rest
upon my beating heart,
thoughts ariving like butterflies

Sleeping,
seems so interesting
Breathing,
like love flowing through my veins

Arms break,
for I reached out to you,
eyes burn,
seeing what was wrong.

Back aches,
burdons I have abandoned you

heart breaks,
for wanting yours

I am from the Fiarway to the dirt rock mounds,

from G.I Joes to Cowboy Boots.

I am from REO Speedwagon to Blue Oyster Cult,

From Nirvana to Styx.



I am from Kurt Cobain, what an insperation he was,

to Intervention where people's problems could be solved,

I am from the death of Michael Jackson, a mournful day it was.





I am from That's what she said, which was the opening to my laughter,

From Where the red fern grows

to The secret… Continue

Day is hot,
Sky is cloudy.
Sun ray's are burning,
Children are learning.


Plopp into the car,
Cool breeze emergeing
crank up the tunes,
A melody's rehearsing.


Tear from my eye,
Shoot's down toward my thigh,
Man who sold the world
and About a girl.


A legend has arived,
Soon his last breath will be taken,
When that day comes,
she will scream (Red-Rum).

At home

Drawing pictures

Of mountain tops

With him on top

Lemon yellow sun

Arms raised in a V

The dead lay in pools of maroon below



Daddy didn't give attention

To the fact that mommy didn't care

King Jeremy the wicked

Ruled his world



Jeremy spoke in class today

Jeremy spoke in class today



Clearly I remember

Pickin' on the boy

Seemed a harmless little f***

Oh, but we unleashed a lion

Gnashed… Continue

Dream!,
as if you wil live forever

But live as you willl die today


-James Dean

Hard to breath
Hearts beating slowly,
White lights emergeing
Window's closeing.

Lungs are dry,
I'm on a mountain!
On a plain,
On a Stairway,
Or a Gateway.

Golden streaks from the sky above
Rageing Fires from down below
Eye's burning,
Body's aeching

I'm on a cloud
I'm in the Lake Of Fire.

Mr.De La Garza.

Where do i start off? First off all,last year 7th grade

there I paced into your chapple of poetry.

Just another kid with a big additude problem

and a mind of a fool. I was stuborn, rude...I can't even explain to what Iwas to what I am now!

To what I have I become.

I look at it as an acomplishment.

Through out the year I became more eager to learn,

and espescily from you! You have guided me toward my passion to write poetry, short stories,… Continue
