*PEN Poems
In SoCal we don't get much rain,
occasionally, a pitter patter.
Along with drizzle, the windowpane
will get a little splatter.
I'm thinking, my dear, longtime friend,
that we consider something nice.
Don't be shocked as I recommend
thrilling weather to add some spice.
Would you like a thunderstorm,
if I could be inviting one?
Though I know it's not the norm,
it would be such exciting fun.
Like a multimedia show,
we could watch it from inside,
see the lightning flash and glow,
with thunder too, you by my side.
We'd pretend that we were scared.
and hug each other very tight,
with each and every lightning flare
and thunder blast that rocked the night.
If, between us, lightning lit a spark
between our wildly beating hearts,
along with thunder in the dark,
I'd hope that lovely trouble starts.
Veracious vanity about victories over
veils shows vain values corrupted by
vicious volatile villains in hopes for
votive to vindicate,
Grossly gluttons gain grains over
gloomy groups of ghastly greiven gulls,
Foreign fighting by ferocious foes gets
fulfilled here by fat-headed fools
fulminating for their unknowing fatalities,
Deep dark derivatives of evil dance daily
drawing delusional dimwits to drown
devishly in damnation,
Multimedia manipulates millions
maliciously magnifying multitudes of
mass misguided many,
Local laws layover latitudes of laundered
logistics layering subliminal taxations
lowering lifestyles lived by the
Land of the Limited.
Throughout a program playing so
Or the streaming of a show,
Commercials advertise the new...
Broadcasting to me and you.
Only seconds long, they toss
Their message out to get across.
Straightforward - sometimes with humour
To appeal to the consumer.
Marketed products for sale...
New lines of recent retail.
Variations of a flavour
Or something similar to savour.
Through jingles and spoken word...
Business making itself heard.
Near future events of outing
Made aware of - without shouting.
Samples of what can be seen
Coming soon to the big screen.
What television has in store
On channels, services and more.
Commercials may often employ
A sense of delay and annoy.
Still, their purpose is promotion...
It is our choice to make notion.
Have a great birthday, Sister Nitz,
Views alarmingly disappear;
Time to make multimedia blitz
Of teasers for the entire year.
Topic: Birthday of Nitz Antiojo (March 28)
The unbearable beauty in jent
A colour I claim to invent
With multimedia
And synesthesia
It gives off a smelly sock scent
World wide web encompasses all,
An amazing apparatus!,
Accelerating communication of knowledge,
And information throughout the world,
It's speed, it's convenience,
It's all embracing nature,
Makes it a phenomenon,
Transforming the world in everyway;
Internet is multimedia,
It serves as a TV,
It works as a radio,
It is a veritable newspaper-all in one,
The world's knowledge at your finger tips,
To lead you to the ends of the earth,
Entertainment, games, buying and selling,
All at ease with the internet,
Adam ate the forbidden fruit,
And triggered-the thirst for knowledge,
Knowledge spread its tentacles,
As seen in the world wide web.
I've seen a picture of a book
caught in a flood from the past
and marveled at what the view
revealed to me, the reader
The book, arced and curved to
its center, like a ship's bow
darkened with abandonment, and
white crystals grown from pages' edge
Words crystalized from every
line written, touchable thoughts
crystallization of the author's soul
the original, unreadable, unknown
The wish to witness at pad and pen
as soul pours ink to paper page
tonguing salty thoughts may be what
imprinted from the writer to me

you said you were coming back
but you didn't change direction
I've waited long enough
you cried wolf once too much
no response to multimedia
as I slowly attenuate
if you finally respond
I forgot the question
it was probably just a ploy
another sleight of hand
the ante is much to rich
anyway, what could it matter
I couldn't change your heart
I couldn't change your mind
love makes many a fool
and I was one for you
you said you were coming back
no response to multimedia
it was probably just a ploy
I couldn't change your heart
