Oh Memes,
how I loveth thou.
You make me smile,
you make me laugh.
You make me mad
you make me feel bad.
You make or brake my day,
but at the end of the day
when I lay in my hay,
I laugh at you.

This is a gamer's world:
Dark room,
no lights.
A room
that's never been clean
or sheen.
A person,
sitting there late at night,
playing...
This is a gamer's world.
Wait in front of a store,
for the newest release of this special game.
Be the first one to enter,
but the last one to find his center.
All this excitement is too much.
This is a gamer's world.
Have a friend come over,
spend the whole afternoon playing...
a game.
1 game.
Never even once stop to talk
or walk
or even remember his name.
Too busy with the game.
This is a gamer's world.
Grow up,
people see you playing games...
Tell you to get a life,
you tell them that this is your life.
They don't respond nor comprehend,
but keep spending money
on other stuff not as fun.
Sad that they don't see what they're missing.
This is a gamer's world and will stay one.

Poem for school on a story called "The School master" by Earl Lovelace
The Poem will only be on the first chapter, and it was important to retain all information from it.
Here's a summary of the whole story, so it's kinda easier to understand:
Earl Lovelace's second novel tells the story of an isolated rural community coming in touch with the wider world. The villages learn, only too cruelly, that "progress" can mean the destruction of cherished values. Introduction by Cecil Gray.
There's stuff in brackets to help you guys understand some stuff
Anyways, here's the poem I wrote:
Kumaca, Kumaca, Kumaca...
the place where the leaves dance in the wind,
where people are simple.
These people live off of Cocoa harvesting,
and a few off of betting on game-cocks. (a.k.a. chicken fights)
These people have dreams,
as nice as can be.
They're all waiting for the fête (big party at the end of harvest)
even Pedro, (pronounce it as Peedro)
who's never heard of a speedo. (those small swim trunks)
Pedro warned Miguel of a non-existent snake,
which worked as bait
to anger Miguel.
To add salt to the wound,
he teases him 'bout his cocks. (The chicken he has that fight)
On the way back,
Pedro thinks to himself "drat!"
He didn't get to see Christiana today,
who's as beautiful as no other.
Pedro and Robert discuss,
'bout their father,
who's distancing himself,
further and further
now becoming drunkard.
They'd (Pedro and Robert) like it if the school were built,
so they hope the beans will soon be spilt.
Now, at the meeting (about the building of the school)
Lucien was speaking.
He agreed to building a school
and thought it'd be cool.
The next to speak,
with a voice as calm as still water-
was Dandrade.
He didn't want Kumaca to remain backward
and never have a "Harvard"
Dardain, who had his hidden agenda,
agreed as well.
So, it was decided,
that Paulaine was to go see the Priest in Zanilla;
he'd ask for advice,
from the follower of Christ.
