Old works, number 10: Tinder Poems

Here are some poems based on my experience on Tinder in 2018.

Tinder Poems

Alan, 27

I am a fuckboy,

I will see you as a toy,

At charm I destroy.


Samuel, 29

I am an eccentric as shown by my clothes,

I enjoy inflicting pain on my multiple beaus,

All of society’s ills, I will expose,

My intellect on you will impose,

I’m less attractive, I disclose,

I struck a pose,

So don’t doze,

Or oppose,

Hoes.


Daniel, 25

I dream of being an exec,

From you I would like a peck,

I tattooed my ex’s name on my neck,

Oh heck,

I’m a train wreck.


Karl, 26

What’s my job, you say?

CIA

Swipe, do not delay!


Ed, 26

I pose with a statue of dick,

To suggest my size.

I’m really not a prick,

I just want you to know,

That I’m quite thick.

I’m just a real man,

Looking for a hot chick

I’ll tell you no lies

So swipe right and quick!


Mason, 25

Wild,

Styled, riled,

Celebrity’s bastard child. 


Ben, 27

Docter’s my job,

My typo’s a slob,

I’m no snob

(nor a blob).

For you, my heart (dick) will throb

Please polish my knob.


Donald, 29

I have nerve,

I’m here for the perv,

Adoration I deserve.


Lou

I’m a shark,

Isn’t that better than a man?

At you I won’t bark.

I’m a shark,

Not a jerk named Mark,

Of you I’m a fan.

I’m a shark,

Isn’t that better than a man?


Geoff, 23

I am Geoff,

Fit af,

Skilled chef.


Cat outfit,

Does emit,

I’m the shit.


Wanna date?

Or just mate?

It’d be great.


Adam, 25

There once was a man on dating apps,

Who wanted to keep his kink under wraps,

But he gave it away,

In the hopes he could play,

With a lady who would give him some slaps.


Calvin, 23

I wish I was a Viking man, for they raid for treasure,

I have tried to adopt the look, at least for good measure, 

I hope you like bad boys, I’ll pillage you for my pleasure.


Jason, 28

Let us start this chat by sharing our careers, 

I am currently a medical student, 

I will be getting educated for years, 

I think it will be best if we are prudent,

I spend a lot of time in cadaver labs,

Where I give some deceased people lots of stabs,

I find cutting corpses relaxing and fun,

I sure hope my macabre joys don’t make you run.

I'm angry

I'm angry. And I don't (at the moment) want to be talked out of it. I struggle, often, with expressing or even just sitting with my emotions. I feel like even the photo I chose for this post was more reserved or toned down than how I feel.  But, this is my trying. I'm not going to time this post, just going to write until I feel done, whenever that may be. In this post, I'm going to focus on the anger I feel around my dad and my dad's death. Though, don't get me wrong, I'm also angry about a lot of things going on in my city, in my country, and in the world. My dad chose alcohol over me and my brother. There is no way around this fact. Yes, when I am less angry, I can be more reasonabl and recognize that addiction is a disesase and he didn't have control over it. But, right now, I want to be angry. I want to get to be angry. I want to get to feel my feelings. I don't want to rationalize, I don't want to be reasonable, I don't want to be fair....
