Below are 5 of my favorite poems that I wrote this year in humanities:

 

Dreams:

Nexus, Nexus, Nexus

That’s all I get to say

Until the people come and change me

It’s “Introducing the new Nexus 5X”

Not many people pay attention to me

Maybe someone will listen soon

Oh! Here’s a kid. Maybe he’s listening to me!

No, he’s just taking a photo

Maybe he’ll buy a phone because of me

I doubt it

Maybe I’ll be a big billboard one day

Not a little bus station ad

I can have dreams too

Big dreams

I can be a billboard president

I could have a pictures of the greats on me

The I-mac,

Madame Tussauds,

KFC,

And maybe the New York Mets

But those are just dreams

They probably won’t happen

So I’m just stuck here forever

And ever

And ever

Until someone starts to realise

We aren’t just advertisement

We have lives

We have dreams

And they can all come true.

 

6 AM:

I wake up early

Damn alarm clock I hate you

Snooze bar is the best

 

Afterlife:

Why cling to a suffering life

When you could cling to your amazing afterlife

 

Where no one ever dies

Where no one ever lives

 

There is just peace

You may be reborn

Or stay in your paradise

 

As long as you look good in His eyes

You will never suffer

And He will give you

Another and another and another life

 

My poem in the style of Emily:
6 A.M.

 

The horrendous train

The lone person sleeps in peace

I am alone too

 

Strangers/Commute:

I see the hand move

I did not see his face well

My wallet is gone
