I'm So Poetic! (pt. One?)

An ode to all of my writer's cafe friends and some of my favorite poetry.

" Cause you don't understand him, it don't mean that he's nice. It just means that you don't understand all the bullshit that he writes!"

                                      Jay-Z, "Blueprint 2"

 

 

 

 

I'm so Poetic!

By Brjden "PickingOnWillHunting'sFriendAtABar" Crewe

 

 

If you practice, you couldn't reenact this

The honest fact is, I'm just good at this

I use big words & take you to the depths of my sea

With one set of scuba gear conveniently 

As the poem gets too deep

 

A wise man told me "sleep is the cousin of death"

So I feed Mr. Sandman Starbucks coffee

And 'No Doze' mixed with crystal meth

 

I'm WalkingBlind as I floRide with BrownSuga at my side

Then I catch a train northbound smoking

the DutchessPoet as I hide

Like a poetic Refuge

I say "God Bless You" to false Idols

And dismiss them like Ryan Seacrest do

The Object or should I say objective is to

Spend a Winter-like McPherson

In the depths of a QuietPoet's prison

Welcome to my own personal jail

As I Rock and Roll with my Cowboy hat

Because I'm a little country as well

I wanna reach everyone even in Heaven and in Hell

All races, creeds and disfunctions

My poetry's even avail.......ABLE

In both sign language and braile

But Bridgey's sold separately and not included

I belong to Passion's disposable usage,

but my Mentality's for Sale

As I sail off the coast of a Phantom Heart I sniff something that smells Like Poison,

so I'm avoiding the Bride's Maid & Vail

I am Brjden Crewe all Alien's Hail

I break rules and mix Oil & Water

 but that's Me(In A Nutshell), oh well

 

I Have a Death Wish that Sets Me Ablaze

With the Rage of a Heart Retired

That inspires desperate art

but It's Alright so I say Farewell Wretched Heart

I am the Mis-Education of the Love-Her

I'm what happens when the Peoples G Riot

& sets fire to bras and snug shirts!

 

Women go all Dara(Dramatic) on me, but still I live to be

The Love Doctor Crewe At Birth as a Dead Memory

See, The Evolution of Eve brings Intensity

that the world wasn't prepared for

We Didn't See That Coming as men

She Was Just Too Much Science For Me

She Didn't Know Love, because she

didn't know herself apparently

No truer words have been Spoken, that's why

the Nazis Got Nothin' On Me

 

My s**t is Sheer Poetry and Karma is a M**********r

so I travel back in time to kidnap

my mother & her virginity at age twenty three

If the Sphinx was a Lady

then maybe we wouldn't need The Truth:

This is Why I Hate Poets

because femininity is a liability in the vocal booth,

Or So They Say

 

I praise your Woman-Like Ways and tendencies

But still, Fear Corrupts so Go Ahead and Rape Me

I'm a Wordsmith, Shape Shifter

trapped in a Love Monsoon

which I fight with a hurricane

I fight fire with fire and for 29 years,

I Break Even doing the same damn thang

 

See, I wanna be More Than Nobody's Sweetheart

This is Why I Have Panic Attacks

But I come back like the Energizer Bunny recharged

 I Loved Once, I Remember

and lived A True Story for a week

With Super Powers and an Inner Mic

listening as Denial Speaks

 

But I Survive like Gloria Gayner

and use Whatever It Takes

To be the best Artist I Can Be

in the wake of a sound sleep

My Legion of doom is What Holds the Truth

like Nik'aule is the Queen of Sheeba

So Insignificant Me is relaxing with

God & The Devil & Shots of Tequila

I may be a Soldier's Poem,

Looking Down on the World

And I Pity Them & their Inexistence,

Breathing Spring that's Intoxicating

to the little boys & big girls

 

See when my Real Eye Realize Real Lies

I pray to Christ or whoever's on duty, for a second chance

But it's A Little Late now, so now

I'm critically conditioned as the Artist in the Ambulance

See Here's what I have to Say......

The Language of My Imagination

is a Priceless Treasure

To behold in the oldest of times and in the Coldest of Weather

 

as A Matter of Understanding,

I can't stand poets that write like this!

They spew super big words and intellectual nonsense

And I Hate Poems About Writing Poetry

They give you more than you can possible handle

But I still Lyrical Love you all, so as I leave

I'll Blow Out the Candle..............

 

Oh God, I think It's to be continued...........

Author's Note

I really don't like most poets. I don't understand them. Either I'm too stupid, or they're poetic for the sake of sounding intelligently poetic. So while making fun, I included some of my favorite people here, and their poetry. I left a lot out, so I'll do this again soon........

Reviews

[Fear Corrupts!]

Lmao.
Wow, you've really done it now - what did you do, write out a list of the name's of all your favourite poets in order to incorporate them all into this long- a*s/kick-a*s poem?
Haha, you're certainly creative, I'll give you that.
Man, how did you think of doing this?
Haha, you managed to get your message across with the help of all of our poem titles and display names;
that must of took you quite a while.
:)

Thumbs up from :

{ Fear Corrupts! }

P.S. You are officially in my top 3 list of favourite writers.
What do you think abou' tha?

[Li Li]

People come to the cafe...and I see these so often by those who inspire them. Very creative.

[Lady V]

What can I say Bridgey? Each poem you write intrigues me more and more. You are a great poet so I guess that means they just want to sound intelligent. lol Keep writing Bridgey and one day they will understand why you. For now just look at them and smile. : ).

Keep focused and keep writing

Live, Love and Learn

[THE LOST ROSE]

This approach have been done before but not with the flair you placed in thie poem. I would say that I am amazed but then again that would be repeating myself over and over and over again. standing O my brother keep on spitting and pissing on poetry because you own it.

[Bennett Logan]

Hahahaha. Love it.

"I use big words & take you to the depths of my sea
Conveniently bringing only one set of scuba gear"
...golden...

[Jason]

Sweet! I told you before your mind is on some other level my man! And im thankful that I have the opprotunity to glance at the creativity that comes from said mind!

"A wise man told me "sleep is the cousin of death"

So I feed Mr. Sandman Starbucks coffee

And 'No Doze' mixed with crystal meth"

You had to be using all the above to come up with this! LQTM (Laughing Quietly To Myself)

Thanks for the motivation!

[perfectlymetiKulous]

This was fantastic... when I started seeing some familiar names, I just started smiling. :)
How amazing. I won't gush too much cuz I know you don't like it, but you know that you're gifted.
There's just not anyone else that can do what you do.

[QuietPoet]

WOW!!! This was SOOO amazing! I loved it! I really enjoyed this. And you mentioned me! =)

You truly are a great writer and friend. This will be going into my favorites and I CAN'T wait for part 2! =)

[Here's What I Say]

"Here's what I have to Say"

OH MY GOD! Is that a shout out for me?! *squeeeeeeeeeeeee*

This kind of reminds me of rap...which to me is people reciting (trying to do) poetry to music. There is a very constant flow of words and imagery, not giving us time to take a breath to say more. Well, that shouldn't be our problem YOU'RE the one speaking. Funny how the audience is breathless when you're the speaker. That's new. Heh.

[Lalli]

LMAO!!!

bridgey my man!
first of all good lookin' on the shout out... second, do you really need to tell me to read closely?! lol!!!

That was f****n' off the charts broski. the wordplay, the rhyme scheme, and mainly the incorporation of the titles to others pieces. If you didn't say so, they wouldn't think twice about it... because it still fkeep son track. bridgey, i've been missing your fun poetry bro, glad to see you breakin a bit from the love.

you have done the craft of wordsmithery well my friend. and don't you ever make fun of my big words damnit! lol ;-p

i thuroughly enjoyed this piece!

much love n' respect
