i am a public school teacher in houston. i have done this since 2001 and i love it. it was through teaching that i discovered this site a a place to publish poetry. i began to write just to show my students how to write poetry. i hope that this site and the poems of others inspire me to write more.
Dark dark night storm over me
Dark night is a holy blur
Dark dark night stop taunting me
Dark night and I think of her
...
The Teacher Man teaches kids from all over the world
The Teacher Man teaches no matter boy or girl
The Teacher Man teaches Christians, Muslims, and Jews
The Teacher Man teaches those who say 'God I don't believe in you'

I'm not important to anyone
To anything or where you're from
I'm not important to any being
Any what you think or what you've seen
...
I wanna get lost
At any cost
I wanna get lost
Like a rabbid Robert Frost
...
I'm so angry I want to strangle someone
I'm so angry I can't think right
I'm so angry I want to fight
I'm so angry I don't like the night
