Poet and You Know It

so a good amount of my classes are pushers. pushers in the sense that they want me to invest a lot of time in those classes outside of the class room. yes yes every class should try and be like that but these are putting it in action. pushing my theoretical thoughts in advance exposition, pushing my time management with at least 9 chapters every day for homework in American Lit, pushing my poetic involvement and experience in Poetry. so i decided to go and push a little bit more for Poetry. i made a poem. about my dorm room.

Dorm Room

The Bourbon Street of New Orleans
The Sloppy Joe of Hemingway
The elk of glass and wood combined
Right near the scarf of Amsterdam

The stick to rub the itch away
Hanged from the framed Cosmo Kramer
The Lotus latern shines so bright
With glow of that electric light

Seats guests upon lumpy futon
To watch shows like intervention
With corners full of dust rabbits
Clean sweeps are but four months away

The wings of Jordan spreading wide
Touch christmas lighted speckled sky
Boy through wall is bad at guitar
Gold fish died off before the snow


Robert Frost here I come.
