Writing Excercise

Here's a writing exercise we did in my Performance Poetry Class a while back.
We had to create a poem out of questions.

I just wrote a string of poetic questions that have nothing to do with each other.

Why does she give birth to more children than sonnets?
When did we become more like ants than gorillas?

Why do we enslave ink in our pens and then put them on the auction block of paper?
Why are our heads filled with brains instead of hearts?

Why must I walk in your shoes to know your story wouldn't it be better to walk in your skin?
Why does it matter how many colors are in the rainbow when we don't appreciate them equally anyway?

How many poets does it take to screw in a light bulb? None because they're too busy writing about its former luminescence. 

Free Write (hopped up on caffeine)

I'm just letting these words flow through me like
energy
like extensions
of myself
leaking through my fingers on to solid keys
transcribed onto bright white screen
laying on the cyber page
so serene
thick like cream
can you taste me yet
let me feed you visually
watch my words slither down the screen
watch them like a body
from the head to the feet
can you feel me
I am seeping into you
my words go right through you like.......

LIVE FREE WRITE

Right now I'm just gonna blog a free write (10 bars) based on the last thing I see on twitter lol. NO EDITING, NO BS Here it goes:



necolebitchie:

  

im flipping through the channels and they have a whole segment dedicated to Gabby Sidibe weight smh...


Are you intimidated by her roles or her rolls
Just cuz your skinny butt can't act and you're wack
Gabby is taking it to new levels while you're stuck on the same one
Why are you hating on your fellow colored woman
I love it when an intelligent black woman is on my TV screen
So what's up with the attitude? what do you mean...
smh? shaking your head? 
You should be clapping instead
Really surprised at you necolebitchie
I guess this is why Gabby's way more richie


LMAO... I am so corny

ttfn loves.......

By the way, check out this discussion about Gabby: (I love Niecy Nash!)

What is your opinion? Should she lose the weight?

Weekly Inspiration

Here's an original piece by me. (not finished btw)
Read this today in my Performance Poetry class

Enjoy!

My Crow, Soft Word

you were my favorite

grammatical error

no matter how much I tried to fix you, you just kept 

popping 

up 

on my page as incorrect

I kept typing you in over and over in different orders 

and you still came up in Spell Check

I gave my all.

Placing my brackets around places I never put them before

Inserting your comma within my quotation marks

Entering and back spacing 

entering and back spacing

ENTER

BACK 

SPACE

SPACE, TAB, SHIFT, SHIFT, ALT, 

CONTROL

RETURN

until my      fingers hurt 

My friends said, "This is a fragment, consider revising" 

But I begged to differ

I was determined to mold you into the perfect phrase

I tried everything that i could yet

you still had that little green squiggly line dwelling underneath you

you really began to piss me off

you were the one thing ruining my life's masterpiece

so i decided maybe my memoir was better off with out you 

and miraculously 

all my problems were over once i hit that button. 

DELETE.
