  • Rhyme

    Rhyme

    You got time?

    Wanna hear a rhyme?

    Well screw that!

    You ain’t getting one!

    People always expect a poem to rhyme.

    Whenever you hear a poem or a rap,

    People always think there’s got to be a rhyme!

    It’s wack!

    It’s like it’s almost expected of you to write a poem that rhymes.

    But the thing is, it’s not about the rhyme.

    Not all the time!

    Poems won’t always go the way you want them to!

    Sometimes there’s rhyme.

    Sometimes there’s not.

    Sometimes there’s repetition, and sometimes there’s no sense to it!

    So don’t get apprehensive if it doesn’t meet your standards!

    At the end of the day, it’s not the structure that matters.

    It’s about the message.

    It’s how it’s delivered.

    It can be about anything and flow like a river.

    If there’s rhyme, there’s rhyme.

    If there’s not, there’s not.

    Whatever the case, just take the time and take it all in.

    Give it what you got and give it a read.

    You might be surprised at what you might see!

  • Fame

    Fame

    You want fame?

    You got it!

    You want bling?

    Then buy it!

    But without a good friend,

    you ain’t got shit!

  • Uniqueness

    Uniqueness

    They say we’re all unique.

    But if we’re all unique, then we’re not unique.

    And if we’re not unique, then we’re all the same!

    But that’s not the case!

    We don’t look the same.

    We don’t act the same.

    We don’t think the same.

    We don’t feel the same.

    We are not the same!

    But uniqueness is something we all have in common.

    It is a common trait that makes us great.

    It allows to see things in ways others can’t.

    It allows us to experience things in ways no one else can.

    We may be different, but that difference is what makes us us!

    It’s what makes us interesting.

    It’s what makes us human.

  • The Internet

    The Internet

    Is it a detriment or a benefit?

    Is it harmful or is it helpful?

    Is it a tool to communicate, or does it only isolate?

    Does it make us very social or antisocial?

    What I do know for sure

    Is that it’s a double-edged sword!

  • Time: Part Deux

    Time: Part Deux

    We are always so worried about time.

    Being late, being early.

    It’s all about time.

    Sometimes, though, we need time away from time.

    We need time to not worry about time and whether or not we’ll arrive on time!

    Sometimes, we need time to have some peace of mind.

    Time’s all around us. It’s always ticking.

    While we’re alive, we’ll still be kicking.

    Sometimes we thrive. Sometimes we’re thinning!

    But if we keep our heads in the game, we’ll surely be winning!

  • Logical Fallacies

    Logical Fallacies

    Logical fallacies, as far as the eye can see.

    They’re everywhere in sight; we hear them when we speak.

    Formal or informal; they’re all really awful.

    And it’s hard to avoid ’em; it’s easy to get caught in them!

    You may use one or more of them!

    And you may use them quite often!

    Argumentum ex culo? Pulled straight from your rear hole!

    Argumentum ad novitatem? A novel but naïve claim that’s said.

    Argumentum ad naturam? Natural does not always mean practical!

    Appeal to flattery? Too bad it’s just a fallacy!

    Argumentum in terrorem? Appealing to fear is abhorrent!

    Argumentum ex silentio? My silence doesn’t mean you won, bro!

    Argumentum ad nauseam? Repeating your claim just creates real boredom!

    This list can go on; it can go on ad nauseam!

    I won’t do that, though; I don’t want to bore ya!

    The moral of this poem; the one that should stick

    Is to always try to go and use some dang logic!

  • Music

    Music

    Music; it’s so amusing.

    When you feel down, it can be so soothing.

    When you’re filled with joy, it’ll leave you grooving!

    There are songs for every mood. You pick and you choose it!

    Songs can be live, studio, acapella, or acoustic.

    You can play them anywhere; even while cruising!

    Music gets us feeling; it makes us be human.

    So let the music play; don’t try and mute it!

  • Time

    Time

    It is defined as a process

    In which things continue to progress.

    People, places, and things all move along with it.

    When we reminisce, the past is what we visit.

    When we’re looking forward, the future is what we look toward.

    But there’s one state; one state that we resent.

    That so-called state is what we call the present.

    When nothing goes our way, we begin to feel real hesitant.

    We don’t know when or how,

    We’ll stop feeling like we do now.

    When things go wrong,

    Time feels long.

    When things go great,

    Time accelerates.

    One day your twenty,

    all worried about money.

    Next day you’re fifty,

    With your own kids who are fifteen.

    Time is such a complex concept.

    How it progresses is based on our percept.

    Making the best of time is a great human conquest.

  • Night

    Night

    It is darkest at night,

    When there is no light,

    And you don’t feel right

    Because there is no sight.

    But in time,

    the Sun will rise,

    and soon there will be complete daylight.

  • Language

    Language

    We see it.

    We hear it.

    We write it.

    We think it.

    But you don’t actually know it until you learn it.
