LanguAge

by Shauqi Shiro




Teacher educates me on how words fuse.
For learners, it is easy to confuse.
I know that a small male is called a boy,
But is there any creature named cowboy?

English contains rules that people should use.
Well, this is harder than hypotenuse!
She mentioned that English is hard to get,
Where there are many rules we may forget!

She then declares that language will not age.
I am slow but yes I get the message.
I combined few words slowly, piece by piece.
What i have learnt can be a masterpiece!

I will use this language till kingdom come,
While looking back at what I have become.





Baseball Bat

by Abraham Slothface




Ink may dull. Bones may break.
Passengers bound to separate.
This room is on fire
and we call out for you.

Eyes ahead. Heart in the present.

Yesterday would stay indifferent-

Get out of my way

Get off you bastard.
We never got room for dogs.

Clenched fist bound to cross.
Pilot drowned in bloodlust.
Will the oldest be the best
or left mangled in the dark.
