Many of these were written during my math class; I'm not sure why, but it seemed a scenario conducive to writing. I'd be happy to let anyone use my poetry, as long as they ask and give me credit. Thanks for visiting!

Waiting at the RMV

Sitting on a wooden bench,
I watch prime-time TV,
except that this degraded wretch
does not try to please.

There is no humorous slop
to pass my time away
all I watch is advert crap
and pray to God for days away.

This waiting in this waiting-room
is not what I'd call fun
the plain white walls and wooden trim
would weary anyone.

I wait for what? You clearly ask,
for that is what I say you do;
I wait so that my friends can bask
in glory of the car I drew

and draw, like horses pull a covered wagon
except instead of cloth-draped pine
I've a metal coated engine
which doth sputter, cough and whine

Last Will in Testament

This world in which we live is cold and dead,
thus leaving nothing for me to embrace.
And all to which I've held has likewise fled
away from me and, too, the human race.

I feel a pull away instead of toward
removing me from that in which I've care
and so there's some I've lost of my accord
and no thing that I saw served better fate.

The Word, the world and all upon it serve
and aid in generating a clean void
where some feel all life equally deserves
but I feel that all is equally devoid.

Just as we throw away a dead mouse corpse
the same should fare a human one's of course.

School

What is the point of a
hospital for people
where the people are less sick
than the guards?

There isn't one, you see,
but it's a strain on the people
to see those who seem different
out of bars.

So the sick and the twisted
get their jobs doling shots
to the people who are stressed
by their breaths,

and I'd like to give the people,
who are doling out the shots,
something stronger just to bring them
to their deaths.

If you didn't gather
this poem's about teachers
and the trials that they put their
children through.

Because of all this stress
the kids resent their teachers
and the death count you just counted
I saw grew.
