14 minutes, what shall I think about?

Poems!!!

I have 14 minutes before the day is over, so I am writing these poems super quickly!

In the land of ice and snow

Falling

A world, with remorse and ineptitude

Shadows in the light of darkness

The darkness speaks

Falling

As a hand brushes our shoulder

Falling

Is the dirt of my shoulders

Not off of my shoulders, of my shoulders

Speaking the words of the darkness

Falling

A subtle tone, a simple beat

We are all inferior

We are all

Falling. 

That one is called "Falling"

Lightning strikes

Winds blow

Thunder thunders

Mountains grow

Water calms

Deserts heat

Volcano erupts

Drums beat

Internet connects

Iphones app

Government rules

First one was free verse, second had a rhyme scheme and another scheme for you to figure out (has to do with plurals). The first one is about how no matter how good we think we are doing we live in a world where we cannot succeed and leads to a conclusion that you should not take for granted small battles won, they are all you got. The second one is a poem that could have been updated over the past millions of years. It is untitled. It is about how things are and will do what they are and will do. It leads to a conclusion that things change and everyday something new will arrive. I chose to not write a final sentence. One reason could be to emphasize governments control of our lives. Another reason is for you to come up with one on your own. Same with the title. Things are what they are, it is up to you what you do with them (message of the poem).

Quote of the Day: "Are you kidding me!?" -a kid in one of my soccer classes, he stated this quote after every single thing I said to him (to be fair I was kidding him most of the time)
