What Am I ? [2 riddles]

Some stare through my window
Looking for a better view
Hanging by a thread
Or two simple arms

Others despise me
They look for an alternative
Masking their traits
With various colors

Proudly sitting on my pedestal
Or sluggishly drooping
I make anyone I meet
World's better

Ge's Will

I, Ge Conner, being of sound mind and body, hereby establish my last will and testament. I want to honor my sister, Duawa Conner, to be my executer. I have given her this task because she is responsible, reliable, and intelligent.

I Put On For My City


We stand on our pedestal of soul
Elvis graced our land
As B.B. King blew in
Leaving behind a legacy of rock 'n' roll and blues

Ge's Favorite Rap Artists


I would consider myself to be a well-rounded person. I listen to a variety of music, including pop, R&B, and rock. Although I like these genres, I prefer to listen to rap. My top three rappers would be Lil Wayne, Chamilionaire, and B.o.B. They stand out to me because their styles are so different, and I like to characterize myself as different.

Go With The Flow

Playful wind tickles the limbs of Magnolias--
The zephyr pricks my skin
A wisp of air echoed a merry tune in my ear


Slight zig-zags and spirals cascaded around me
Tantalizing my tongue with the taste of honeysuckle
This breeze played more tricks than David Blaine at the Apollo--


Children dotted the landscape--
Sun shone on the little girl's face
Making her glow like a filament


She was the odd one out
She hovered with the breeze
She would jump over the moon and jog to Pluto--


A four leaf clover touches her nose--
As the wind scurries along the bushes
Making everything in its path weightless

When I See You

Wordle: \

When I stare into the mirror--
Nothing looks back at me--
It was you--that made me true
And invaded my memories--

You were the one who broke me--
The pieces I still search for--
Your face and grin--Your body's thin
I couldn't have asked for more--

But the next time I see you--
My dreams will be fulfilled--
I'll cut you up-- And end your butt--
Im just keeping it real.

E. E. Cummings Inspired

matter
over Mind
it happens every twice in a while
heartbeats are the siamese
Of the bubbling of the witches' pot
Bells ring. Hallucinations
Colorless. Blood is black
one, two, three
Choking on the digits
Coughing up blisters
digesting smiles
and excreting rage
just move the antenna

Personal Choice

Lonely Number Love


Love is the loneliest number

When you agree to be

The lightning to his thunder

Self Interview

1. What is you living situation?
I live in Memphis, TN. North Memphis to be exact. I reside in a 1-story home with my parents, sister, and 3 cats. It is very cozy there because my mother is really big on interior decorating. She let me paint and design my room just how I envisioned it. It has a Spongebob theme.

2. What are the particular challenges in your life?
There are many challenges in my life that I don't want to speak about now. One that is obvious is the simple fact that I am an african american female. In the future, it will be hard to succeed because racism and prejudice is still alive.
