Ode To An Exit: Wham! Bam! Thank You Slam! ( a Narrative: Part 2)
1: SLAM noun: 1.) a heavy impact. 2.) a: a noisy violent closing.
b: a banging noise especially from the slamming
of a door. 3.) a cutting or violent criticism.
[probably of Scandinavian origin]
Get ready!
There's about to be a heavy impact.
Get steady!
You're about to see a bunch of grim facts.
A grim act,
Where poets get their limbs hacked,
Then get stacked,
Because of the "class"
That the proper and prim lacked.
My brim is packed,
With a sack of violent noise,
From some girls and boys,
Who want to take all of my joys.
They want to take all of my poise,
Because it is their ploy
To destroy.
So they bring
This noise
In with a bang.
This bell they rang,
As they came
To form
Their little gang,
To show their fangs
To our slamming slang.
The end song they sang,
While preparing their rope for the hang.
A gang bang of words,
Used to close the door on our slamming,
As they opened their minds,
To do a little scamming.
Down our throats
Their agenda was ramming,
Because creative thoughts are meant for jamming.
Like I said before,
They want to close the door,
And bore us,
As they roar
About "no slamming anymore!"
We try to reason "WHY"
And "WHAT"
Are they fussing for?
While from our core,
Our words continue to soar!
