Archivist Does Poetry!

[The Aspiring Archivist any pronouns]

Well, I think the title is pretty self-explanatory. I will be writing poems, and putting them here! I can't promise consistency, but I'll do my best to make a random one every once in a while. I'll probably do one for you if you request a topic!

I know people usually do this for a post milestone, but I've missed so many of those that it's probably pretty well justified.

Whether my normal, more depressing poems go here is TBD. I've been thinking of discontinuing them anyway.

 

This is the first stanza

in a thread full of verse.

My poetry is both

a blessing and curse.

 

They're a blessing because

you all seem to like them.

But they're also a curse

because it's hard to write them.

Okay, bread it is.

 

From toughest roll to softest sponge,

Bread knows a special place.

Its combinations infinite,

Its use is commonplace.

 

It is dense in nutrients,

As it is formed from grain.

If the world were without bread,

It wouldn't be the same.

 

So when you eat a sandwich,

Or a bun, or garlic bread,

Appreciate it for its greatness

as I here have said.

 

That wasn't that great. But there you go.

YES BREAD BREAD BREAD BREAD!!!

What do you mean "wasn't great?" That was excellent - the very peak of dough-y poetry!

You could say... I loaf it

How did I not know about this? May we have another poem ?

[curon he/him]

Oh yes pls this is good stuff! If you’re up for the challenge: Do one about ORANGE!

 

also we should have a thread where we could do some poetry together! Like a co production or poetry battle!

Orange, like the color?

Also that would be pretty cool!

Hehe you may choose freely; I shall enjoy your struggle to find rhymes for orange - be it fruit or colour or both! (I borrowed this challenge from the man Eminem himself so it gotta be a nice one) 

Should we make a new thread for the poem battle/coproduction or are you willing to accommodate for it here?

Orange, sweet citrus fruit,

Juicy flavor so acute.

You want me to make a rhyme

For which I have not the time.

 

But color orange, flower, sunsets,

Neon brightness sometimes upsets.

Orange, like our sun's own fire,

Colors heat and sweet desire.

 

Orange, two meanings like so:

¿Naranja o anaranjado?

One is fruit to taste and nourish,

Other heat of death and courage.

 

 

I don't know you decide.

That's really good stuff! Kudos! I absolutely dig the language switch there, very crafty! 

I shall try a sip of my own medicine here and then proceed to create a poetry battle hall for us after that  

 

A fruity, fiery word is orange

but versing it requires a crime.

Our dear friend Hoid would grab the door hinge

and flee in light of this slant rhyme.

 

Welp. I like yours better! You sure won the zeroth round

That's pretty good! And funny

So what's this about a battle hall?

Thanks! I created one but tweaked its purpose on a whim: it's called Wheel of Rhyme and its just around the corner of your own Poetry thread
