A Poem by Alexander143
"

It's amazing what history can do when re-revised.

"

Pack your things in a plastic bag.
Peck your nosy past goodbye.
Pick up your courage, don't let it sag.
Poke the fire in you lest it will die.
Alert the future-
Let it know you're coming, otherwise, it will Puke you out with enormous torture.

Rack up the old coat of doubt.
Reck not about the rumours from without.
Rick negative energy on a dusty shelf.
Rock and explore yourself,
There's more to you than what
stares back at you in the mirror.
Life can be a Rook, in the stead of hope, showing you terror.


Keep Smiling

This is a fantastic piece, though the beginning feels a little rough as far as flow goes, but you really picked that up in the second stanza. Leaping into the poem with more rhythmic guile. I also love the line "there's more to you than what stares back at you in the mirror." This And many other lines are practically tattoo worthy. Absolutely love it.
