I need help.

[MarcelineTheVampireQueen]

Okay, I have a project in my literature class, and I need to write a poem. But I have no idea what to write about. Even though my other thread is about poetry, it doesn't help. Just please post ideas of what to write thanks. :]

 

[Tryharder62]

Write about something you know. Something that means something to you or an experience you have had.

 

[MarcelineTheVampireQueen]

I can't find anything useful, My minds dead, and this thing called a brain has dried up in my head! -_-

 

[Lord Emu]

All my poetry is of the depressing nature so I doubt I'm much help. Best advice I can give you has already been said. Write about something you know or like. Also if you get stuck try using some online rhyming dictionaries or thesaurus.

 

[MarcelineTheVampireQueen]

Uuuuuuuuuggggggghhhhhhhhhh Fuck Me! Im So Going To Fail. -_-

 

[run_silent]

Just start writing something, anything. You can fix it later but you will have a skeleton to flesh out.

 

[linuxgeek]

Could write something with a lot of sexual double entendres.

 

[Tryharder62]

Well you posted on the weirdest thing you had ever done to get laid - you lubed up and got in front ot the air conditioner.

Something in my mind released
When I thought of being with him.
It sent chills up and down my spin,
But it also filled me to the brim.

That was silly, my example. But think of something you can describe. One year they had a contest how to describe the beautiful icycles we had.

I was thinking about writing about a dead girl, but IDK .... :[

 

[pete]

write a poem about your last great love affair/boyfriend, and only write about your feelings, what it felt like in your heart during that time.

my work here is done.

Okay, what about this,
His body drifted through my mind always.
He had made a sinner change her ways.
From on her knees, To saying thank you, and please.
All for him, he only wanted a virgin, So she casted away her burden. .... & my brain died again. :[

 

[Tryharder62]

That's a start. Just keep writing and then go back and rearrange later.

 

[MarcelineTheVampireQueen]

But .... UUUUUUUUHHHHHHH Someone give me a couple of lines. -_-

 

[pete]

close your laptop, grab a pencil & paper and think ONLY about this.

keeping the internet in your face and is only gonna fuel your ADD, it won't get your shit written

Since I'm old enough to be your mother, I'll tell you what I tell my kids. I didn't get an assignment to write a poem. Now get going! I will however look at what you have and help you refine it.

He had made a sinner change her ways.
From on her knees, To saying thank you, and please.
All for him, he only wanted a virgin, So she casted away her burden.
She was known as a maneater, letting her reputation beat her.
But his christian ways, put her into a lustful haze, and she was dragged to church.
Learning the prayers, and such, was just to much.
She fled, leaving her lustful church man, and into the arms of a biker band.
She was then used, and forced into her old ways.
On her knees like the good old days, all the while thinking "What was this guy's name?"
...
I think the ending sucked ... help me fix it! :[ Please!

 

[blobfish]

What type of class is this?

His body drifts through her mind, always.
He made a sinner change her ways.
Went from being on her knees,
to being polite, saying thank you and please.

She went from being a maneater,
to learning prayers and such.
And when she couldn't stand anymore,
It all became too much.

She fled that lustful church man,
and ended up into the arms of a biker band.
On her knees just like she started
And out of his cold judging hand.

It seems funny how this story ends,
she didn't know his name.
But he had forever changed her heart,
she would never be the same.


Oh well I had fun anyway.

 

[MarcelineTheVampireQueen]

Oh I could kiss you! YOU MIGHT HAVE JUST GOT ME AN A! :]

The last line is the best part!

Here's one of my favorites about Jackie Kennedy Onassis and my dog. I wrote this a few years ago when I was feeling pensive.
Poetry historians refer to it as my "bubble" period, a time when I was prone to farting in the bathtub.
Without further do-do:

I got a dog, his name is Fred,
And yesterday I ran over his head.
If he'd a wore a pillbox hat like Jackie,
Right now his ear wouldn't look so tacky.

As our former first lady you had some bad luck,
But at least you never got run over by a truck,
Now I've got a dog, his name is Fred,
And he's got Goodyear written all over his head.

Okay, what about this,
His body drifted through my mind in all ways.
He had made us, me, me a sinner crazed, and dazed.
From on our knees, we said thank you, and please.
All for him. He only wanted a virgin, so of course she, me, cast away her burden;
and was a virgin no more.
But do not mistake her, me, for a whore.
I am a man-eater, but never let my reputation beat her, me.
I am a good girl.
His christian ways, put her, me, into a lustful haze, and I was dragged to church.
Do you worship at the alter of love? or of hate?
Learning the prayers, and such, was just to much to contemplate..
Fuck God, and the holy ghost
I don't believe in and won't eat the Host.
She fled, leaving her lustful church man, and into the arms of a biker band.
She was used, forced into her old ways.
On her knees like the good old days, all the while thinking "What was this guy's name?"
