Re: Open Mic Night by Cayon(f): 4:32am On Jan 03, 2009
Cayon takes the mic from Stillwater with a million dollar smile
Softly playing in the background was Otis Redding song "I've got dreams to remember.  Cayon is singing Otis Redding song. . . . .oops realizing she can't sing. . . . . . lyrics starts flowing in poetry style. She looks at him with the eyes of a camera


*******

"Honey I saw you there last night
Another womans arms holding you tight
I know you said she was just a friend
But I saw her kiss you again and again
These eyes of mine, they don't fool me
Why did she hold you so tenderly?"


As Cayon get ready to leave - he grabs the mic and start singing


I still want you to stay
I still love you anyway
I still don't want you to ever leave
Cayon, you just satisfy me


grin grin  grin grin

*Finally wakes up from his drunken stupor that made him forget about dropping lines last night*

Chained down to the desire of your heart,
Gripped in the myth you preached of your inner beauty,
Trapped in the entanglement of unclothedness and lust,
Blinded by the thought that loving you was a must,
I let fear be my jailer and loneliness be the other,
But now I must seize the key and reclaim my freedom.
Re: Open Mic Night by princesa(f): 4:45pm On Jan 03, 2009
drags the mic from cayon lily hubby
and with so much vehemence speaks



sorry to burst the bubbles of this love-struck sweet hearts angry
but this stage is for a more purpose; to bring out stars
so cayon, better you know that all men are sweet sharks
swimming round their prey but with one violence movement, attack
and the unlucky prey is lost foreva to the immense darkness of hell track
so take heed and be like us the "smooth operator" only in for the fun it brings cool


oops dint know steven was in!!

*saunters to the stage*

insecure when I ask for opinions,
and frigid when I refuse to compromise my standards,
hence, u justify yourself when I catch you cheating,

******first time out of my zone,walk with trepidation towards the mike*****



smart mouth all sass

full of life and grags

outlaw badass likes to swagger

biker,ruffneck looks like tupac

never cared, never loved heart was empty



quick words,good heart

loves to write,familiy oriented

loves to bake the perfect aunty

determined,principled and full of life

loves to read,loves to write and loves to laugh



they met,he falls she stalls

he is lost,heart bursting head spinning

legs wobbly,but he is a man he is tough

he must act,fronting fails ,his swagger falls


can he tell her

should he tell her

would they tell her

he needs to know

heart in mouth

he decides to tell her

i love you . . . . . . . . . .






ok that was crappy. . . .but i had to try being proactive
Re: Open Mic Night by Cristalz(f): 1:55pm On Jan 04, 2009
*slowly walks on stage, picks up the mic.  .  .stares into space with a faraway look.  .  .*

She's gone.  .  .

I watched her bus roll away, all white and shiny,
Her face pressed against the glass as she sadly waved goodbye
I waved back just as sadly, wishing I could hold her hand one more time;
Hold her hand, share secrets, passions, joys and sorrows
Enjoy the freshness of her presence, bask in the sunshine of our friendship, hold on to the bond that so easily connects us
And never have to worry about tomorrow.

She's gone.  .  .

I held back my tears but deep inside the wells of my soul, pain churned like angry tidal waves,
Crashing against the walls of my heart, wrecking me up inside
Still I showed no outward sign, kept my tear ducts sealed up tight;
Had to be strong 'cause she was holding back her own tears with all her might.
Wished I could go with her.  .  .I see her as often as the moon meets the sun.  .  .
The situation just leaves me undone.

She's gone.  .  .

I'm back in my room, in the welcoming arms of my feathery bed
Finally I let the tidal waves pour, crash through my heart and fall through my lashes,
The streaming tide only interrupted by soft sobs
It's different without her, my sister, my best friend.
She's only going away for a long while and her voice I'll still frequently hear,
But nothing surpasses the physical presence of that beloved special friend.

Missing you.

*slowly wipes a stray tear, drops the mic and takes a bow*

olulu:

Re: Open Mic Night by Nobody: 1:20am On Jan 05, 2009
Takes mic from Cristalz

He loves me, he loves me not
Each petal falls around me, but
A frigid wind blows them north
The exact way he takes me forth
To a cold place his love becomes my hurt
"Don't be deluded child, he sure loves you NOT!!!"
Re: Open Mic Night by DaPhoenix(f): 5:36am On Jan 05, 2009
I was going to wait till Friday but I need to let this out.

I left traces of my mocha lipstick on your cheeks and collar
So when she hugs you she'd know you've been with another
Did I mention my leopard thong is sprawled in your backseat?
Honey, better hurry before she finds Victoria's secret
Karma is a bitch because once upon a time, your girl was my man's other woman
Don't you think it's my turn to use the excuse "I'm only human"?

walks off with a cocky smile
Re: Open Mic Night by princesa(f): 10:30am On Jan 05, 2009
@olulu
hi, i love the poem on me
love to go dancing salsa with you on mombassa beach
love the way you do it that makes me a fan of you
humour added to creativity
your number one fan here cheesy

@ariblaze and crystalz
though love ur poem crystalz, please keep it short
just as the thread innovator intended

mine

walks to stage feeling in a trance and heart-broken, gets the support from crystalz and bluespice poems and speak embarassed

with that heart stopping smile
with the beauty you epitomise
with the enchanting blue sea dancing in your eyes
with the way a touch from you make me alive
i would still look you  my love, straight in the eyes
and give you a kiss then say goodbye
just so my independence will survive


drops mic and walks out with a faraway but determined look embarassed

Re: Open Mic Night by tope2000(f): 1:59am On Jan 06, 2009
This is niceeeeeeeee wink
Im so tempted to join in undecided
Re: Open Mic Night by princesa(f): 11:18am On Jan 06, 2009
walks in feeling all devilish and impish, grabs mic from tope who doesent know what to say

I had dinner with the goddesses muse
they asked what i wanted from them to use
i asked for all inspiration, not one did i choose
After the contact with themselves, they thought they'd seen a human fool
looking at me with their derisive eyes
i had this grenade, but that, they never knew
Whoops! i made it pop to the sky
and back to the Greek nook it blew the pagan fools
thats when they knew never to mess with princess, cos she's good grin

walks out of stage with a satisfied smile
Re: Open Mic Night by olulu(m): 7:23pm On Jan 07, 2009

grin grin grin grin
Re: Open Mic Night by StephenP(m): 8:07pm On Jan 07, 2009
Didn't want to forget by Friday. I promise to have another by Friday grin

I look in the mirror but I do not recognize the eyes staring back,
I try to find the man that lives inside of me,
But it is like a stranger has taken over this body.
Now I feel like there is nothing left in me,
Yet, why does it seem that you do not care
That someone has stolen my identity?
Re: Open Mic Night by bluespice(f): 12:00pm On Jan 08, 2009
**feeling a lil melancholic **
Time is lost
frozen in that endless moment.
The moment when all movements and actions stop.
The chirping of birds ceases,
the leaves stop fluttering,
the brain stops working and
heartbeats span forever.
In this moment, all i see is her face,
the one that gave me the first taste of life,
liberated me from my fallen state.

*walks away quietly from the stage*
couldnt wait till friday either
Re: Open Mic Night by olulu(m): 8:53pm On Jan 08, 2009

hmmm, ok, is it friday yet?
hic, hic, well am high,
tyme to say sumtin,

slowly staggers to d stage,
pushes everybody out of d way,
clings to the mic like a woman,
looks around
and points at,



I woke up on the morning of a friday,
Feeling very randy.
The day seems sunny,
And made me feel funny.
I felt like some action,
And I wanted no rejection.
I though of a certain dame
Who thinks love is a game.
I was now very Hot,
So I went to see the honey.
She didn’t go to school,
She was seated by the pool.
“Baby was looking good, real cool.”
Her skin was so lush,
It made me want to rush.
But I took my time,
Cos our thoughts didn’t rhyme.
She told me she was cold,
So I tried to hold.
She pushed me away,
Told me to get away.
I told her,
“Baby, take it easy”,
Just wanted you to be cosy.
Cos baby you are fine,
And with you I want to wine and dine.
U know,
Dinner by candlelight,
Romance by moonlight
I am not putting you on line,
I really want to make you mine.
So stop being coy,
Don’t even try to treat me like a toy,
Am a big boy
And the only thing I would give you is joy.
Just give me a chance,
And surely I will make u do the love dance.



staggers off, head bowed,
and farts aloudly as he reaches the lady he was pointing at,
Re: Open Mic Night by Cayon(f): 3:13am On Jan 09, 2009
Cayon grabs the mic from Olulu while holding her nose (refuse to smell his fart)
looking from the corner of her eyes - sexy winking at the guy on her right


He gives me chills every time I see him pass
Making me nervous and my heart pumping fast
A year has come and gone, now its 2009
Yet I visualize his lips touching mine
My man is handsome, sexy, fine and right on cue
But here I am cheating in my mind with you


******leave the stage smiling ********
Re: Open Mic Night by netotse(m): 3:53am On Jan 09, 2009
collects the mic from cayon goes to the stage and returns the wink

u're eyes, so full of fire,
but still can't conceal desire,
a union fill with such promise,
u'd think that naught was amiss,
so while for u my heart will always thunder
i dare not another man plunder!


****blowing a kiss to the pretty girl in a red dress as i saunter past****
Re: Open Mic Night by TOYOSI20(f): 4:21am On Jan 09, 2009

Re: Open Mic Night by ariblaze(m): 9:44am On Jan 09, 2009
empty stage

cold world

where has the warmth gone?

where has the lush gone?

why is the light harsh?

why is the fragrance gone?

where is the love?

where is the promise?

what becomes of my heart now?



doesnt make eye contact with anyone as he walks out of the arena
Re: Open Mic Night by Tgirl4real(f): 3:43pm On Jan 09, 2009
Can't believe ari left his zone undecided tongue

So much fun if u guys can keep it short cheesy
Re: Open Mic Night by olulu(m): 9:38pm On Jan 09, 2009
just back from the female side of the loo,
wipe the lipsticks marks from my face,
head for the stage,
caught side of princesa rear view,


hey man, the stage can wait,

walks towards d fascinating behind
grin grin grin
Re: Open Mic Night by StephenP(m): 11:33pm On Jan 09, 2009
Let’s go wild tonight baby
And if the world goes to the vultures over night
Then at least we spent the night right
I know you want to go out with a fight
But let’s make love instead let us save the world in bed
Maybe if the world stopped to make love more often
We would make more beds and fewer coffins.
Re: Open Mic Night by Nobody: 12:32am On Jan 10, 2009
Desist from me!!!
This euphoria of unbecoming foolishness
And let a supernatural awakening quicken in me.
So, I should dig up my grave.
Not to lie in it,
But to lay down my corpses of fads.
