Digging deeper into the roots of past struggles,
experiences, and connections.
1.
Most of my newer poems seem to look deeper into
what the topic is. I try to talk about something, and show the topics
significance and/or meaning to me. I attempt to show why a topic is significant
to me through explaining an experience, struggle, or connection.
2.
Earlier in the year, my poems would be a lot
blander, and I would not put much significance or connection to my life. For example
if I were to write this poem earlier in the year, I would have just written
about what we did together, I would not have attempted to show how I see my
teammates as a second family.
A Second Family
We all show up together, to the
cool, loud and
compact
studio rink, for a harmless game.
We chirp each other, with no hard
feelings.
Our heartless jokes are our form
of heartfull compliments.
We all cram in the small, smelly
locker room together,
When a parent brings us all refreshing
Gatorades and energizing
Sandwiches. We sit there for
hours, we let the game we all
commonly love bring us together,
and spend
the wonderful thanksgiving together.
