World History

A poem that can be read both forward and backwards (Reverse Poetry)

Within history many things have happened.

The dinosaurs- they didn't last long.

Then people happened- they've lasted for sometime

The Paleolithic era: (old Stone Age)

The humans were nomadic- moving place to place

Hunting for every meal, dying quickly of sickness, dying during childbirth and of animal attacks

Then the Neolithic era happened (new Stone Age)

Humans began to settle down. This was thanks to the agriculture revolution.

Humans began to farm crops and domesticate animals instead of moving with the animals.

Thus the patriarchy was born.

A “Free” Country

You say we are free

But what's your definition?

Yes we are a democracy

But not a real one.

We use outdated methods to find a key

We use our dates words to hurt those who are different.

You say we are free

But not all of us

What about me?

What about my peers?

Yes, we don't have a dictator

But we give our leader too much power

You say we are free

But our "protection" force is killing innocents

A young man in a city

Not too far from my own

what about the beauty

From New Orleans?

You say we are free

But who do you mean?

You mean those who look like you to a T

You mean those who are like you

You mean the ones who ARE you.

Hello, I’m Kate and this is my poetry dump

I’m gonna be posting majority of my poems here. If you’d like to request a certain style (haiku, villanelle, etc.) or a specific theme or subject, go ahead and drop in my inbox. Hope you guys enjoy what my brain comes up with.

I do have a few rules that I’d really appreciate if you followed if you do request something

-don’t rush me to put out the poem, I will either push it out fast or it’ll take a few days, but I will eventually get it out

-I’ll write about being cheated on, but not about being a cheater or being torn between two lovers

-I won’t write anything racist, homophobic, transphobic or anything close to that. I will write about dealing with these topics but not about being them (if that makes sense)

-if you have any questions let me know
