I’ve decided to put up two poems I wrote based on WALL•E. I’d like to know what you guys think.
The first poem, “I Must Be Dreaming”, is in WALL•E’s perspective, while the second one, “The State of Bliss”, is in EVE’s.
I Must Be Dreaming
I see the probe droid gliding in the air,
She is elegant, white, sleek, and fair.
Hovering low and gently, she scans the soil,
Of which I’ve had 700 years of toil.
When she rises in the air, she gracefully loops,
Like a dancer in the sky, she swiftly swoops.
But beneath her beauty, is a darkness untold;
When threatened, she fires her blaster, menacingly cold!
However, I don’t let it bother me,
For I still follow her ‘round the empty city.
And when I spoke with her near the ruins of boats,
Her voice was music, her words like notes.
She giggles and laughs, with a face soft and sweet;
This may be the loveliest probe I’ll ever meet.
As she stares at a flame, her sapphire eyes gleaming,
I am taken aback — I must be dreaming…
The State of Bliss
I am filled with joy and ecstasy,
As I enjoy a moment so incredibly happy.
I spin with a trash compactor, as I give him a hug,
And he rests his head on my shoulder, so warm and snug.
So many emotions running through my system;
A mix of joy and satisfaction, along with affection.
I’m so amused by the dumpster, in this state of bliss,
How can I express it, but with the spark of a kiss?
Still excited, I feel like sharing a dance,
He’d like to join me; he wants to take his chance.
And effervescent, with delight, we soar among the stars,
Almost like that picnic scene, from Episode 2 of Star Wars.
Blissfully dancing in this celestial ballroom,
I feel only pure exhilaration; no sadness or gloom.
We’re laughing with glee, like children at play,
And as I catch him in my arms, I know I’ve made his day.
This romance in space — it’s sweet and not tart;
the affection and delight, it tickles my heart.
I could hold hands with my trash-droid forever,
Yet it doesn’t compare with the bliss and pleasure of a spacewalk so tender.
I am currently working on another one titled “The Wheel”, but I havent made any progress on it for a long while. I’m hoping to get to work on it this week, as well as the next Chapter of my fanfic.
