Tell Me Why
by Fisker Martyn Zynda

Tell me why the grass is green
The ducks all preen
The stars aren't seen
in the daytime;
Tell me why the sky is blue
The books are true
I'm here with you
in the daytime;
Tell me why I'm writing this poem
I think it really sucks so I'm ending it now.


Who Am I?
by Zenon Bates

Who am I?
Who are you?
Who are we all?
Why are we here?
What's the meaning of life?
Who really cares?
I don't.
Heh, isn't that interesting?


This Bud's For You
by Zosima Zuleika Ahmed

Don't ask if I want a beer 'cause I'm Muslim.
Don't ask me to do your homework 'cause I won't.
Don't ask me to kiss you 'cause I find you repulsive.
Don't ask me to jump off the Mackinac Bridge 'cause I'm not that stupid.
Don't ask me to move back to Egypt 'cause there are too many mosquitoes.
Don't ask me to help you 'cause you're way beyond it.
Now, do you have any questions?


Get Me Outta Here
by Damien

I'm no poet!
And I know it!
But I don't gotta show it!
So I ain't gonna blow it!
Why don't ya just stow it!
Where plants can't grow it!
Heh! Wouldn't ya know it!
I can actually rhyme a little bit!
Now, GET ME OUTTA HERE!!


I Hate Poetry
by Ozzy Lewis

I HATE POETRY!
There, does that say enough?


To The Man Of My Dreams
by Amy

This poem is to the man of my dreams.
He's cute and he's handsome but not as dumb as he seems.
He likes sports and parties and he likes watching T. V.
But what he likes most of all is hangin' with me!
So, man of my dreams, don't think this poem is lamey,
Just come drop by; the name is Amy!
You know who you are, so don't try to hide, boy;
'Cause if you do, I'm gonna find ya, Hosoi!
Love ya!
