I wrecked this journal once,
I wrecked this journal twice.
It started getting easier
to "not be nice."
I wrecked this journal three times,
and then I wrecked it four.
And my inner "wrecker"
hollered, "I want more!"
I've wrecked it with a pen,
I've wrecked it with some glue.
I've wrecked it with some coffee,
and with some pudding too.
I've yet to take it for a walk,
or with me in the shower.
In fact, the mere thought of it
makes me kind of cower.
A few more weeks of wrecking.
And then what? It's the end?
I'll be sad cause it's become
somewhat of a friend.
Corny, yes. But creativity is what it is!
Be sure to go to Wreck This Journal to witness the creative genius of Wreckers everywhere!

I love this type of fun poetry a la Dr. Seuss. Excellent job Janet!

Wreck Poetry! I love it!
ReplyDeleteSame here, love the wreck poetry!
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT! You're brave! I haven't been able to wreck it yet! Must try harder!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the poem - utterly Seussian!
ReplyDeleteHope you have fun at Art Unraveled. I went last year and OD'd on classes (one every day Monday through Friday, plus evening classes M, T, Th, and Friday). I was exhausted! But I also worked on an ArtZine that was published and met Rebecca Brooks, a mosaic and mixed media artist from Prescott, Arizona who inspires me with her blog and our correspondence.
ReplyDeleteMeri - I'm only taking one class. but i have a feeling i'll be wishing i'd signed up for more. you know, that whole One Lays Potato Chip concept? ;) I'd love to hear more (and see!) about what you did!
ReplyDeleteLove the poem! It's cute. :) And the pages look so dreamy!
ReplyDeleteLove the poem and your pages look great. Way to wreck!
ReplyDeleteWonderful poem! I like your pressed things page a lot.
ReplyDeleteLove the corney :) I adore the corney! I have scads of paint chip samples here in the house, but have yet to use them. The ones you used certainly look great on the white page! Great idea!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I love how the creativity is spilling into other mediums! And that white page - yum!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun. I like your 'wrecked journal' pages very much:)
