a poem without a, an, the, this, that
you're young, they said
quite obvious though;
you'll learn, they said
and I certainly hope so.
don't give up, they said
and why would I;
live your dream, they said
well I have to try.
you're still growing, they say
i'm a young adult;
take responsibility, they say
but that wasn't my fault.
you should stop, they say
so there's less i can do;
you cannot, they say
i should listen to you?

The Impossible Poem: Prompt 1 — The Zero Article Poem
If you are up to an impossible challenge, make a discernibly structured poem without using definite or indefinite articles, for example: a, anor the. If you are truly brave, add this and that to the list of words to avoid. I’ll leave the subject matter open; meanwhile, I’ll be in my tower, cackling my impossible laugh! Muah ha hah!
Good luck and tag your poem with #impossiblepoem1 so I can check them out!

I lay in my bed, hours away from departure. Listening to Mama Cass Elliot. Deep in sorrow and loneliness. With arms stretched aside, drooped towards ground. As, beautiful abstract paintings cover my wrists. Life oozing out slowly and carefully. Bringing satisfaction with being at peace in my own misery. 1 hour till departure. New land, new home, new start. All, no longer needed. My real departure starts now. "Say nighty night and kiss me. Just hold me right and tell me you'll miss me. While I'm alone and blue as can be...." And then. Nothing.
Perhaps emptiness, as distance for heavens above, our stars and constellations shaped by their empty rivers: each one memory made smaller through glimmers, though faint defined so, as to remain mistaken for holes punched through tops of bedroom ceilings. Our bodies breathe what does not belittle as air through their distance to though thought from existence begged for encumbrance. As mothers wish for daughters, this debt upon lovers to delve so far into another. Its wish in such lack in distance, it being said space was relative, and defined through matter yet matters so far within cotton and linen to put our universe to shame.
To Wonder Naturally
Feet come to thundering base Waterfall hidden in foliage Deafening sound
Stars colliding for millenia Bashing dust, elements flying Meeting together again in new forms
From first raised head To last breath in lungs Of some zoo-kept rare creature
Hummingbirds outside of windows Cactus flowers blooming over rock Granite towering above countryside
Flame, both combustion and burn Inexplicable reality, how trees bend What is seen and believed and not understood
To be so bold as to stand in front of creation and proclaim it all accidental

And there I was, On my big day, Trying to take your pain away, But all I could do was share my tears.
Earth
How water rolls over rocks Base of thundering fall
What sound trees make When night's breeze goes whistling by
Where pounded dirt path meets pavement Place where Pan's fantasy ends
Why rocks crumble and fall Age of time taking it's toll
Who can stand on towering earth Call it basic, useless, hurt
Shark Teeth

Wellspring panging to obey.
