Best Big Name Poems

Technology taking over
Faster than we know
Smart phones and pretty gadgets
All these androids on the go
Shops are closing faster
Faster than we think 
More jobs gone tomorrow
It’s an online shopping dream
Online shopping dream



Amazon, Ebay and Wal-Mart
Just to name a few
Online shopping for everyone
Is the future scaring you
You’ve...

Once upon a time there never was an Ego
For it was alive by the breath of wishes of those who were suffocating from it
I carried the cross for being egoist
Had my hands nailed, had myself hailed
Confident rain was self-absorbed
Self-esteem felt the pain
Self-assertive had risen and...

Out in California
I set up my little pizza place
that was shaped like a small tower,
while the other big name
pizza place giants,
moved in on my business
and had a lot more power,
their pizzas were made as
if on an assembly line
with little garlic and
hardly any toppings,
while with my...

I think I'll be an influencer
I'll be really good at that
I'll buy some bots from Russia
and flog some plastic tat.
I'll pose in skimpy undies
I'll advertise fake tan
and when my fans unfollow me
I'll bring out my old gran.
Of course, the person that you see
behind the camera...

Ray Ventre
even Loved by me,
his smallest acquaintance.
Want the ow to go away, want to 
go to last Thursday,
To see his joy
Again.
Ray was my teacher
On Thursdays, four to six
He taught patterns and continuity
Of the literary past, EN 281.
A big name for the
Enjoyment of
Literature.
He died Wednesday,
The day...

I do not know your name...how should I call you?
Though I call you with the name of my choice...you will not be aware of it

Hearing that name once will keep me wide awake
Everyday...thinking of you makes me excited
With my immense affection...I will...

I hold this eraser in my hand
with a whale on it
smiling above the two lines that mark the waves
and the name of the brand
to erase and be erased 
is written beneath the beady eyed whale.
A line to make it smile 
two to make its universe
no...

Cynosure

Umm..cynosure... what does that mean?
Oh yes, I see...something supreme.


Like dignitary, celeb, sight;
a focal point, or nucleus.
A stunner, prodigy, limelight,
a treasure, magnate, omphalos.

A hero, luminary, ace,
centrality, big gun, big name.
A famous person, worthy place,
or major leaguer of some fame.

A star, a personality;
a spotlight, center of it...

Who is the big winner of the game.
We watch to see who is the big name.
The truth can’t be denied,
that no matter the tide,
the half time commercial gets the fame.

Hero's Reward
  

A warrior wears his battle scars
with pride upon his face.
Across his breast a row of stars,
he brings us no disgrace.

He's welcomed with a big parade,
"Hero," they proclaim;
but in his heart the whole charade
pounds within his brain.

 The memories haunt his every dream
no...

Science may have created your physical being 
though through Spirit science surely did not 
Create your image or the talents that you have 
 would be more than what you had thought

Of any loving person who can give you or share
with you and then turn...

If you know your history you know that the black achiever is one, 

Step down from the NAACP for youth student in high school,

My mom said now a days they are doing remarkable things,

At the time I was there we did not have a local...

We were pilgrims to the great city 
one who's culture is globally abundant 
all types live there 

Big name giants 
Equal minded intellectuals 
Rights activists aplenty 
Kings of poetry and literature 
Envious dealers of intensity 
Laymen wishing to emulate 
Espresso madmen doing caffeinated jigs
Young men...

Jack and his friends, impressed by personalities
wanted to get there and enjoy name and fame
They stood gaping at their accolades and victories
And made gross assumptions about what it took to succeed
They tried to attempt the goal
To their dismay, they hit failure and disappointment
They grasped it's...
