Vivienne Chen Poems

If I could Copy and Paste the world,
I would Ctrl C on the times that took my breath away,
And Apple V onto the moments that went astray.
...

Three eyes or two and a mouth
Gaping, black
A snout-like nose
Diluting the poisons to the vessel within
...

He’s a red one
With sickle and hammer
So hated, his kind I know
Reads Marxist manifestos
...

What is wrapped in silk
Pines to be bound in leather.
The crashing wave
Wishes to be subdued.
...

5.

I hung up my wings for the night
No seraph needs them here
Those fluffy, light, angelic wings
A [expletive] pain to wear
...

I want you to smile at me
I want you to break my fall
I want you to look me in the eye
I want you, but that’s not all.
...

You walk through the masses
Swimming upriver
Stopping like a boulder
To have the people swerve around
...

She grins at me
Her dark eyes and chiseled brows
Glaring deep
An old cigarette in her mouth
...

I am left alone
The wind takes me and
Its whisper gives me chills
Not unlike your voice
...

I say stop!
You say no.
You’re drunk on bliss,
Ignorant bliss.
...

11.

We played in you as children
But now your path is dust
The horses that once rocked so lively
Now peel their plastic shells
...

Do svidaniya
We say goodbye in Russia
I never get a
Do svidaniya
...

13.

The cold, icy air
Whips the fabric of your shirt
Stripping away your fire
Into smoke
...

14.

I fell in love with his words
Not his self.
I am not sure anyone ever saw
His true self.
...

The colors of the spectrum
All in disarray
Hatred spurned from ignorance
Fuel this endless fray.
...

I drove my Chevy to the old gas pump,
A cry rang out in complaint.
A man said “Egad! Look at that bill! ”
Before dropping dead in a faint.
...

A girl made of wicker,
Doused in straight ‘A’ fuel
Honors dangle around her neck,
Adorned with charcoal jewels
...

18.

Wake up.
How do those glassy eyes
Fit on that porcelain skin?
A perfect blue
...

The Best Poem Of Vivienne Chen

If I Could Copy And Paste The World

If I could Copy and Paste the world,
I would Ctrl C on the times that took my breath away,
And Apple V onto the moments that went astray.

If I could Ctrl Alt Del those points when you were blue,
And Find and Replace those sad days with words anew,
I would Copy and Paste the world.

If I could Spell Check my sentences every day,
If I could Caps Lock and Shift your laughter,
Then perhaps I could Save my happily ever after.

If I could Undo and Repeat whenever I pleased,
And ignore the Microsoft Assistant with ease,
Then I could Copy and Paste the world.

If I could Copy and Paste the world,
I would dress it up in a pretty Font to share,
And give it ClipArt and Symbols and Webdings for it to wear.

But I cannot Copy and Paste the world,
I cannot Print in black, white, red or brown.
But maybe I could press Esc,
And all the world’s problems would Shut Down.
