Slam Poetry
In the Weekly Writing Challenge I said that if three people posted a poem, I would post one of my own. Well, here it is.
This is an example from my slam poetry folder. This kind of poetry is best performed, in my opinion, but can still be enjoyed in the written form. On a writing site I am a member of, someone started a slam poetry thread. This is the only one I have where I’m not slamming on members of that forum.
I hope you enjoy Next Customer, Please
This is for you, yes you,
the one I checked out,
the one I had doubt
of your so-called sanity
when you came to rant at me
‘bout them tappin’ your phone
bein’ all alone
with your empty vault
just like some wannabe
Al Capone.
When today’s not for share.
Not fair? Don’t care
‘bout your awful misery,
bringin’ up history
that I’m no part of.
This is no start of
some kind of friend thing
I’d rather have ending
of your twisted fantasy
tryin’ to take in me.
Next customer.
Please.
