What You Could Be

What You Could Be

A Poem by Domenic Luciani
"

I can't believe I wrote a poem. Well, enjoy.

"

Brawling in the Garden,

Breaking through the windows,

All of us are prophets,

If you count the zeros.

 

All the roaming monsters,

All the wretched heroes

It doesn’t make a difference,

At least as far as speed goes.

 

Learn your lesson quickly

Get behind the devil

Unless you want your a*s kicked,

It’s really f****n’ simple.

 

Braving Armageddon,

Livin’ in the future,

something for the chosen,

it really doesn’t matter,

 

Be better than the rest of ‘em,

Cuz life is what you make it,

and when your life is like this,

you’d better not forsake it

 

Remember that we’re human,

No matter who denies it,

And we can still be happy,

It’s better they despise it.

 

Now,

Is the time,

And the place,

Revolution calls . . .

 

To-day,

Is the day,

And the moment

Evolution crawls,

 

Do - you . . .

 See,

At the end,

Of the road,

That you’re standing on your own?

 

Wont you --

Li-sten to me,

You must speak free,

Don’t look,

 just see,

What you could be.

I love this. It's a really good poem. It makes me want to go out and do things instead of being such a couch potato! Haha.

This is more amazing than you're giving credit! With me being a poet, this gives depth, meaning, inspiration and rhythm. But, to me, all a poem needs is meaning and inspiration, and it doesn't even have to rhyme. You should concider more on poetry. Poetry is like any writing, if you do it just right, it's like you're putting together a painting in the form of words.

"Sorry if it's bad. I don't really do poetry."

You know, I find you to be a really, really funny person. You're very humble, aren't you?

You have a talent I wish I had. I love to read and write (poetry and novels), and what you've written is ....... true. You've made a fan out of me. =D

Very realistic attitude..
It is a bold approach….
A practical philosophy….echoes in the lines..
Its beautiful…..
