i have to do a poem on the st louis arch whoever can write the best one gets 10 pointsWhoever can write the best poem gets 10 points?
A white arch
next to a filthy river
in a crime-ridden town.
Nobody cares.
There once was an arch of St. Louis
If we climbed it we could lose us
It's rather tall,
Hanging over a mall
This is the arch of St. Louis.
:D
eh? eh??Whoever can write the best poem gets 10 points?
Does it really matter...
That darkness shudders cold in the night.
That rivers freeze over, tempting winter's subtle depression.
Does it really matter?
Stories for Girls
Submission:
Indigo bleeds out
Arrows cut flesh like lions
As rain escapes wounds.
Death sharpens the blow
The midnight clouds linger low
who munch on marrow.
Teepee leans over
Rawhide fades away in cut
as the scissors scrape.
I can write one about the St. Louis airport.
Yellow empty
bellied bowl.
Starbuck's generic
coffee ground
filled cup - my ashtray.
Wait ...
wait ...
wait ...
Do NOT fall asleep.
Wait ...
Now boarding flight 240.
God, I hate that place.
bad beer
crooked baseball
filthy streets
only half way to New Orleans
there's a reason for the arch
where else can you jump from
The St. Louis Arch stands tall and strong
Watching over all that is right
Turning a blind eye against what is wrong
The arch stood there since my father's birth
Watched my aunt increase her girth
Whenever you get to St. Louis folks
Stare at the Arch...
Cause what else are you gonna do with it, huh?
I once met a guy in St. Louie.....
OOPS!!! You need help with your homework, huh? Good luck! ;-)
When did it
get a coat
of white.
It was silver
the day
I got a cramp
inside the
tiny
elevator
on the way
to the
top.
At a distance i saw the arch
So high in the sky
That hot summer day.
Wishing to go up
to the highest peak
But through the truck
I could only speak.
Seen those arches
many of times
down on the river.
