Thought it would be fun to see what you all come up with on a whim. Try not to think about it too much; the spontaneity is what makes it fun!
Mine:
Darkness on sunny days, brightness in the dark. Every day.
There once was a lark. It was at the park.
No.
I won’t.
Why should I?
I refuse on principle.
Tanned arms, skinned knees, bug bites
Summer leaves its markBe grateful, I tell myself
But the longing doesn’t listen“Give me a ten word poem”, they said.
Fuck that!I don’t feel so good
I just shit my pants
Maybe the feeling
Didn’t come from you,
But from me.How do i work?
What am i worth?
Dissect me.Roses are red, violets blue. Some poems rhyme, this one doesn’t.
I skipped breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Now I am drunk.
It sounds like you had barley sandwiches instead of food.
“Why do people put question marks at ends of statements?”
A woman from Kalamazoo
Whose limericks stopped at line two
It makes zero sense
To end with suspense
That’s not very nice, so fuck you!
Ten-word Haiku:
Summer heat
Gives way to Autumn chill
While I napThis ten word poem
Ends a little earlySure, absolutely:
“Give me a ten-word poem”
Magical Haiku
