picture #5

two stripes
signal speed
signal cool

black stripes
next to brown
stand out

the mix
and the barrier
is in the stripe.

picture #4

two heads bent together
one dark red
the other reddish brown
sitting on the steps
leading to a statue
in a cobblestone square
next to an medieval church
and a medieval castle
giggles ensue
the sun slowly sets
and with a shocked air
they rush off
towards tasks unknown.

a picture

This is what originally inspired the picture idea



Attempt to hurdle Laptop failed

screen is now down

and keyboard up

one leg board straight

and the other in a

97 degree attitude

forearm resting on the bed

head poped up to see

the utter ridiculousness

in the mirror.

dang I have good

not falling

skills.

Picture #3

two in one day since was behind...heh heh

chipped black nail polish
slightly hairy ankles
white thermals
covered in snowflakes
black boxers
displaying snoopy
sleeping on a pumpkin
in front of the night sky
green shirt from a german town
make-up smudged face
hair in a messy bun
bangs staying back from grease

its bed-time

Picture #2

A girl sits at a bus stop
a sage green zip-up
well-fitted jeans
brown and orange sneakers

A girl sits at a bus stop
hair in a messy bun
feet pigeon-toed
face in hands looking down

A girl sits at a bus stop
shoulders slumped
neck bowed
crying.

Picture #1

Ok so this weeks assignment is to write a picture this allows me to vary in topic a little.

Robin egg blue sweater
with slim white stripes
hanging off the door
of a dark wooden wardrobe

covering the upper left corner
of the full length mirror
but really only an inch
or two

what really obstructs the view
is the fingerprints
right in the center
now how did they get there?

Ganzehaut #7

This is the last one aren't you excited? do you have Goosebumps? harharhar.

a slow crescendo
a high hanging note
words of wisdom
and peace
calm my mind

a ritardando
voices joining as one
a message so sweet
and pure
lift my soul

Across an Ocean

Across an Ocean
there's a little girl
and she feels all alone
I wish I could hold her
and show her she's not

Across an Ocean
there's a little girl
who feels unloved
I wish I could be there
to show her how loved she is

Across an Ocean
there's a little girl
and she feels worthless
I wish she could see
her worth that shines through

Across an Ocean
there's a little girl
who feels embarrassed
I wish she would realize
that its normal

Across an Ocean
there's a little girl
maybe she's not so little
but she is beautiful and strong
I hope she feels my love

Ganzehaut #6

All it takes
is one look
one touch
one word

and a little smile
creeps on my face
butterflies
flutter in my stomach
and goosebumps
cover my skin

Ganzehaut #5

Even though
I can feel
the heat
all around my body

underneath it all
I can feel
my skin
starting to prickle.

Ganzehaut#4

I didn't expect
to see you here
stomach clenching
chest tightening

I can't imagine
what it would be like
to feel calm
with you near

I don't know
how else to say this
but you give me
goose bumps.

Ganzehaut #3

There is something
strangely beautiful
about the tiny bumps
on our skin

its like a reminder
you're only human
you're real
and that completely
fine.

it reminds us
that we should be
fuzzy
soft
excited
scared

it reminds us
its perfectly ok
to simply be
us.

Ganzehaut #2

must prop eyelids open long enough to right something.

today
I decided to shave
I decided to dance

but first
I had to walk outside
and it was cold

now
it no longer really looks
like I shaved today.

Ganzehaut #1

This weeks topic is Goose bumps.

Jumping into the shower
it takes my body a moment
to realize
it's not cold anymore

as the steam pours around me
the little bumps on my arms
slowly start
to fade into my skin.

The Project

what is "the Poetry Project" ?

it's something I'm making myself do so I uphold a new goal--write something everyday.

Each week I'm going to give myself a topic and each day I will attempt to write a poem within that topic occasionally I will post things from inspiration as well.

feel free to give feedback comments suggestions on my topics and poems.

why a new blog for this?

so my old blog doesn't get cluttered up with something entirely different

also I made this blog invitation only so I can see exactly who reads it I mean I don't really care who does I just want to know who does.
