Hoodie Poems - Poems about Hoodie


He wore a hoodie, she had an attitude

He wore a hoodie, she had an attitude 

He wore a hoodie
So you immediately assumed he had a weapon
He wore a hoodie
So you immediately assumed he was on the way to a drug deal
He wore a hoodie
So you thought he was hiding something 
He wore a hoodie
So you thought he was a good for nothing

It's not wrong to wear an old hoodie that feels like a cloak of woven memories,
to keep jeans that hug your body like a spell that knows you by heart,
because some clothes are not just fabrics, but shields of comfort on days when the light hides.
It's not wrong to use a phone that freezes, like

Premium MemberA Woody With a Hoodie

I once trick-or-treated...goodie, goodie! 
I had wore, a sock with a hoodie 
People were all so surprised 
When they all had realized 
I was walking around with a woody

Premium MemberDon'T Wear That Hoodie

Don't wear that hoodie
  or put on ripped jeans
We're wise to you dudes
  We know what it means

When you let your appearance go
  and start putting on a show
When your comb's stuck in your hair  
  and much of your torso is bare

Remember Michelle and Barack
  What did they

Hoodie Baby

Sitting at a bus shelter - skinny hoodie baby,
denim-discount - sad little figure,
Elfin faced even with the nose ring.

I know this stranger.
Her alien eyes search for other alien eyes.
She's been staring at empty walls lately,
I can tell, I’ve stared at those same walls.

I’m guessing 
the weight of her solitude will increase.
I hope she finds someone

Premium MemberShe Didn'T Know Part Ii

She didn’t know pt.2
The Getaway 

Making my get away I was walking fast.
Hiding the two bags of money in an old target shopping bag.
Walking with no witnesses as to which way I went.
It was all I could do not to break out and sprint.

As we now know it’s not safe to wear a hoodie 
when

Premium MemberRobin Hoodie

~

There once was a young Brit, Robin Hood,

Plundered bad folks and gave to the good,

He loved armor and knights,

But was quite fond of tights,

And decided to wear them for good ...



Now, sweet Nottingham, taken aback,

For his pantyhose took too much flak,

Thus dressed like a fairy,

With men, far too merry,

And not near enough gold ... in

Premium MemberHiding In My Hoodie Today

I woke up all forlorn and hollow inside of me
oh yes, I was pretty darn melancholy
all funky blue and my glass was totally empty
and I just wanted to curl up into nothingness . . . 
oh, why does my hair have to be bone straight
disgusted, my eyes stare back at me from the mirror blankly,

Hoodie

He comes quickly through the back door
Weary from wearing his faded hood
And we welcome him warmly once more
As all caring humans ever should

His illness we know too well to be
Many years he’s spent with us
He continues enduring the HIV
Over him our kind team makes a fuss

If only some people could just understand 
Then silence for

Robin of the Hoodie

Alas, resides in Sherwood Forest,
one Robin of the Hoodie.  He’s lost
amid the greenery, weeping
as sunset nears for underneath
the Hood he hides his deep
and lonely fears.  The Hoodie
no protection here amid the
bug filled darkness, nor can
it quell the eerie sounds of
hoodless creature calls,
his secret handshake useless
among the clawed and taloned.
He drifts

Hoodie

I've got my earphones on
My hoodie says billabong
Writing lyrics about her while playing my favorite song
All the right moves like
Mahjong.
I'm weird so if she's the girl I'm King Kong
Okay okay that sounds so wrong.
Love is a game maybe ping pong.

It's raining notice the high seas?
Have you seen a beauty like this?
I think that she's a

Hug a Hoodie

Raining a little
It felt nice
Inside the fleecy hood,
Wasn't cold but I felt warm
And safe inside.
Didn't get a hug
But maybe next time.
