two completely different types of poems by me....neither are that new...



When the watcher of the whales no longer needs to see
And the water in the ocean brings the sky down to her knees
When the tides pull the moon instead of the other way
And the birds dig under ground from the light of coming day
When humans turn up their faces instead of looking down
And the only impression that is left on earth is lesser than a frown
When Adam condemns Eve and poisons every fruit
And guns are for nothing else than to target and to shoot
When killing innocent souls is every body's sin
And screaming is so common its life's average din
When chaos turns to history and miracles are gone
And only devils dance on earth and your life is just a pawn
When no one has a voice because they all refused to sing
And angles fall from clouds because they all have broken wings
When four leaf clovers burn for warmth and poison falls in rain
And every body's dying to save themselves the pain
When lepricons are gone for good after years of kind man's trust
And homes are just a legend that now sleep beneath seas of dust
When the world stops spinning forward and slips back in the past
And the night and day are one, they no longer dare contrast
When god gives up on his children and leaves us to ourselves
And the fairies of the world are dying with the elves
When the universe is sinking to an all inevitable end
We will see the angels fall ands it is our turn to defend
We will open up our eyes and learn to spread our wings
Or we will fade into the shadows and hide with broken things
When we give up on heaven and it gives up on us
The angels at their knees will cry for just the dust.
And they will stand like statues the only left and just
They will fall with mother earth with their growing copper rust.














My eyes are large and beautiful
But you can have them
Here they are.
I'll take them out
One by one
And leave them in a jar.
My hands are so talented
They could earn me many things
Ill cut each one off
And rope them up on strings
My legs can get me around
Quite fast to many places
I'll break each of the bones
So you can win the races
My ears are not too great
But they look cute where they stand
Ill slice them off cleanly
And place them in your hand
My lips
Oh what a smile
How lovely it does shine
You can tear them off
And keep those lips of mine
And my hair is so very stunning
Or so it has been said
But I will shave myself bald
And sew it to your head
My heart is all that's left
It's all I didn’t offer
But you can have that too
If you'll only treat it softer

The first one is good, but I'm a little confused why you thought it needed to rhyme! Some of the second lines feel forced because you were trying to find a rhymung word instead of just saying whatever sounded right. It's up to you, but ?I think it would flow better and feel more natural if you just let it go wherever it wanted, and didnt force it to rhyme.

I agree with Cheese; I thought it was a little awkward in places, but the imagery was great.

As for the second, I thought the rhythm was on and the rhyming fit nicely in most places. So, overall, I liked them both smile
