Write a poem from the cannibalized lines of past posts.
Do not put your lines in quotes. We all know that these lines are not your own, but your own arrangement.
Do what you can to retain the integrity of the original line.
Look back and cannibalize for the sake of art.

Upon Someone else
ReplyDeleteLife is not always black and white
but rather shades of gray.
Restrictions from society
Tell us it's in our minds.
It's only an illusion.
That everything is the same.
Soon you'll find that
every voice
was always inside of
you.
I drop down, but I don't--can't-- fall
ReplyDeleteDon't worry,
When we have each other, we have everything.
I know it's lonely, and life seems hard,
I swear on every cat in the universe,
We are worth us.
The truth, it never changes.
We are who we want to be.
This is the future.
Hands out incase we fall,
and we fall.
Fall in love.

ReplyDeleteLife is not always black and white or right or wrong
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of grays or maybes
We enjoy the rawness of the emotion and it makes us feel real
We want to feel something, anything
Why do humans crave pain?
If only you could understand.
It is like a parasite.
I know it's lonely and life seems hard
They know you're hurting.
We need the pain
Please, remember that.
I ran the world, I used to.
ReplyDeleteYou tremble like you see a ghost,
Bittersweet memories,
that is all I'm taking with me.
And I believe that the darkness reminds us,
where light can be.
Don't you know it doesn't have to be so hard?
Waiting for everyone else around to agree,
might take too long.
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light.
Don't forget to remember me,
Because everything is changing,
and there is nothing I can do.
I could use a fresh beginning too,
all of my regrets are nothing new.
My mother nearly cried when I told her that I had wanted to go.
You made me, and I love you, but I can't change the things I've done.
I'm love's suicide.
If I were given an immortality potion? No, my would not change.
ReplyDeleteIs it really worth it to kill someone to save another?
I completely agree with you.
could you explain that?
Sometimes you need a friend that has more strength than you.
It's me against the world.
i need other people in my life to validate my existence but i want to be left alone
I want to believe in the magic around us,
but can’t as the world around me have disproved all and any fantasy.
I need to escape.
I Want To Be Needed.
it makes us feel real.
is Living worth the pain?
If you have found something that you were looking for then why would you wish to not have found it?
ReplyDeletemaybe when you found it, it wasn't what you were hoping for.
Should we fear the unknown?

Eyes open,
Seeing blindly.
You see a pencil, but I see the translator to the words I can not say.
The smile you showed,
Now I know it was fake.
I love the last 4 lines
DeleteThen once upon a dream never came true
ReplyDeleteYou won't be missing that part of me
Is it just enough for you to breathe?
beautiful world we live in
i want to see the northern lights
A freedom from myself and all my burdens.
I'm who I am and always will be.
I wish for a freedom from all anxiety
Your eyes are older than the tallest tree you've seen.
No one can stop me from being me.
ReplyDeleteI drop down, but I don't--can't-- fall
I'll prove them wrong... I'll show them all
I'll achieve my full potential no matter what
Following my dream without having a backup plan,
Living fearlessly despite other's attempts to stop me.
Staying true to myself, without restriction from society,
To become someone, I am proud to be.
How can you be hopeful when the world is hopeless?
My hunger is growing stronger
ReplyDeleteMy painted eyes go on staring
I feel like like no one uses me
anymore
I used to be a source of joy
I am ricocheting through the air
to a certain doom; feeling so guilty
it hurts
I wish for a freedom from all anxiety
To become someone I am proud to be
they know you're hurting.
Hey,
ReplyDeleteHey you, Yeah you.
Dear, Stranger
Dear stranger looking for happiness
Dear Blank
Dear who ever reads this
whom it may concern
Dear Whoever,
Whoever would like to feel better,
Dear you'll know who you are if you read it,
Dear Crazy somebody,
Dear girl who believes she is ugly not good enough,
Dear heartache,
To those with the same secret,
To an open mind,
To the person in need of assistance
To the person who just needs someone to be there for them,
To the broken hearted,
Dear Broken, Shattered, Fallen, you.
You are not alone.

losing beauty.
surrounded by a sea of shadows...
I walked faster avoiding
a thousand years;
I see the creature that lies there.
Dear you'll know who you are when read it,
ReplyDeleteSilence scares me
My body is coughing up a storm
I am looking for the answers, I've only found more questions
If you have found something you were looking for, then why would you wish to not have found it?
I am ricocheting through the air
Are you afraid of falling? Or are you afraid of what happens when you hit the ground?
For you a while you may struggle with yourself
Keep your chin up darling
You just have to find the right words and melody
Sincerely, your best friend
The perfect ratio of
ReplyDeleteA long hike in the fall and
The smell of home
Early mornings
Late nights
A memory that reminds me of who I am
The perfect song to get me though the day
Are you happy with where you are going in life?
ReplyDeleteIm struggling, falling.
If you have found something that you were looking for then why would you wish to not have found it?
Sometimes to stay alive, you've got to kill your mind

Describe your senses
the little things
worth a thousand words.
Leave nothing to regret
because fear is only what you allow it to be,
and this question and answer vault contains
the mirror to humanity.
Modern motivation
has become life tennis,
where the pain of midnight
leaves seasonal residue
as beauty in the eyes of the beholder.
The moral newtonian compass
points to one chance, one person, one hour,
and the voices
of cannibalistic poetry
create a communal story,
a communal poem
a love letter
of a new perspective.
The random post of perspectives
demands a new you—resolution.
A whole new world
a Tuesday challenge…

DeleteI love this poem:)
DeleteThis is honestly amazing did you use every title?
DeleteThe mirror to humanity
ReplyDeleteRestrictions from society
The truth; it never changes
How can you be hopeful when the world is hopeless?
Disapproving all and any fantasy
Of the bursts of raw emotion
But isn't it worth the pain
If it makes us feel real?
Broken shattered fallen
Dreams that don't come true
Just you against the world
Praying for escape
Fearing the unknown
Is it really worth it
Killing one for the sake of another?
In looking for answers you just find more questions
Freedom
Loosening it's beauty
But that was all an illusion to begin with
The gray area.........
Sometimes you have to loose your mind
To survive
