Creature The dark The bleak The end of the street The creature waits for you Lit haphazardly here In the streets so dear In the alley it leers The creature waits for you It's eyes peer out Smoke plumes From its snout The creature waits for you Are you insane? It's just the rain The answer is plain The creature waits for you Run right past You are Quite fast The creature waits for you At home at last The fear may pass Switch on the light The creature is here for you

Dream Passion Belief ##acrostic **note: this piece is supposed have a vaguely 'rap' cadence to it Desperate for change Reminiscently deranged Encased among this thought Atrocities can be wrought Mind flows free Persuasive as can be #acrostic totally Serving every whim Surmising every sin In me trust completely On top a mounted steed Nobody here but me Be or not to be Erupt in hyperbole Living #life whole heatedly Instantly I believe Forever eternally

I'm Done I'm done throwing a tantrum. I shouldn't blame opuss when I'm overall not very active. @wendy3763 specifically you were very helpful with your advice and generally very supportive from the get-go. I've decided to write for my own benefit either way because I like to write lol. So if people repost like or comment on my stuff that's great, if they don't thats ok too. I'm going to upload more stuff again and if you have a minute you should check them out, if you don't it's ok they're there for me to practice writing anyway. Thank you and again I would like to apologize to opuss.

Disappointment I gotta say I'm disappointed in the opuss community. I've posted 5 #poems recently that I'm pretty proud of and not one like repost or comment has come to them. If nobody likes them I'd appreciate a comment to that effect rather than them being ignored. I'm from America so it might be a time difference, but it seems like if it's not for a challenge nobody cares. Please prove me wrong.

It's Your #life Nobody's going to help you Nobody's going to hinder you This is the real world It's all up to you What you want to be It's not up to me Neither your mom nor your dad Can make you feel bad About your passions What you choose to ration They're an easy excuse For what you choose to abuse You're sentient Aren't you? Not an ant That's my assessment No more whining I say to you It's your #life Do what YOU need to do
