Another lovely Wednesday Write Night in my hall tonight! Again it was great and it even included cider and donuts for all! It totally made my night. There was even more people there tonight too! That means more poems to hear from more awesome writers! And of course, everyone's writing was just actually amazing and inspiring. It's so cool to see how different everyone's poems are when we all have the exact same theme and topic to write about.
Tonight's theme was Weird Writing. We chose the topic of Voices in Your Head. Each of us said a word that was supposed to be included in the poems as well. The words were: caramel, edict, twitch, auto tune, frazzle, loquacious, Viagra, and pillow. Plus bonus snap points for including: chicken nugger, sweer potato, and/or french fried. So here is my Weird Poem. I hope you enjoy it!
A Weird Poem With Some Weird Voices
By: Christina AKA Me AKA Hannah
I’ve
developed a twitch
I’m not
sure what to do about it
I’m not
really sure how I got it either
It
probably has something to do with those voices in my head
Like auto-tuned
robots singing in my ear
Go away
you daft punk losers
But
hey, they aren’t really hurting me right?
They
just tell me to do stuff, but it isn’t usually bad
It’s
just words.
I can lie
on my chicken nugger pillow and think about all of the sweet caramels and cider
of the world but the voices are still there whispering loquaciously as I try to
sleep.
They
aren’t dangerous, but their voices are sickening nonetheless
I’m
frazzled and frizzled and freaked out and fucked
I feel
like I’ve just found out what Viagra really
is, two minutes after I’ve swallowed four too many.
I guess
I should call a doctor. But doctor… who?
Anyone
I ask will pronounce I’m crazy with some kind of edict with lots of big words
that I don’t understand.
But
maybe I am crazy
Or
maybe it’s not me.
Heck it’s
probably you.
And
here’s just for you.
Just
for you and your crazy and me and my not.
Nobody
dies
And the
little girl never gets any older.
And oops
that’s a spoiler
No it’s
a plot twist.
No it’s
not.
I don’t
know.
Those
are just the voices talking to no end.
There
is no end
But
then again,
There
is no beginning
Unless
you’re in the hospital
Oh
well.
I’m not
And I’m
not crazy
Those
voices are just friends, and enemies, and frenemies staying by my side as I
walk down the street in the dark by a parking structure
There
are so many cars
Maybe I’ll
steal one
Maybe
the voices will too.
Yeah I
think we will
Yippee,
a new car for me
It’s
shiny and new and now it’s mine
And now
I’m done
Finished if you will
Yup
