The other night my kid showed me a video of a toad, a cat, and a bag of pretzels.

Me: *gasp* *shouts* there’s a toad on my rold gold!

Kid: -_-

Me: *laughing* a TOAD on my ROLD GOLD!

Kid: -_- that’s…

Me: infuriating!

Kid: … an imperfect slant rhyme. Emily Dickenson would be proud.

Me: *whispers* toad on my rold gold

Eat

You tell me when I’m hungry and when I’m full

If I’m still hungry when I’m not supposed to

I think it’s my fault

When I’m on a train

And it stops out of nowhere

I think it’s my fault

I let them call me by any name they want

It can be anything

I don’t mind

That is how little I think of myself

I never know what I want

You always told me what I wanted

When i was cold

When I was warm

I get shocked every time you don’t know me the way I thought

How can you know me?

When I don’t even know myself?

What the fuck is my name again?

fun fact abt me: i fucking hate writing poetry. hate it. despise it. loathe it. it enrages me and i seethe at the mere suggestion that i should begin writing it. it makes my blood boil, my skin crawl, my heart stutter. i am filled with dread at the idea ....

however, reading it is super fun! :)

#i am a poet #POETRY!#......anyway #send me your poetry i love reading poetry it's so silly #dps fandom #heyyy <3

and if a beetle climbed onto the back of a dove? and they unknowingly flew together towards the sun sinking behind the elm trees?

You Hate Me

You hate me because I can’t clean a home as good as you.

You hate me because I don’t have as much energy as you.

You hate me because I have different values than you.

You hate me because I am nothing like you

You hate that I am not a narcissist like you.

I don’t want to be anything like you.

Obi-Wan Kenobi, a poem

O is for outstanding, of which he is such B is for beautiful, which he is much I is for intellectual, because he is smart W is for wonderful, and I know this in my heart A is for awesome, which is so true N is for nice, which I know he is too K is for kind, just like a good friend E is for everything, because he is my man N is for nifty, which he is so O is for obliterating, the droid ships would know B is for brave, a true quality, and I is for iconic, which he is to me
