Untitled...Inspired by real life

Before I post this poem, I feel that I need to introduce it a bit...
I'm in a poetry class and I am so excited about it because it's really putting me back in the swing of writing. I guess it helps by taking a lot of the pressure off of making a perfect poem because I naturally give a fuck less when it comes to school (I do get good grades though).
Anyway, our assignment was to write an anagram poem based off of another anagram poem. This was actually pretty hard trying to make a story, beginning, middle, and end, but only use singular words and just create other singular words with the same letters.
I wanted to take this opportunity to express some grief I've had inside of me since August and days and days since then...without further adieu here it is...

Live evil
Hatred thread
Scared races
Ranting ignorant
Isle lies
Officer force
Harming arming
Bluest bullets
Demur murders

Bella exclaimed as I made my way closer to where she was standing. "I thought I was gonna have to come back in that bitch and drag yo ass out," she joked as she elbowed me in my side. I managed a slight smile across my face. but it was far from convincing. I didn't want the girls thinking something was wrong while were supposed to be partying. I really hated for people to worry themselves about me or make a big fuss out of a personal situation. I realized immediatel...

Me and Mr. Hollywood - Chapter 3

By
Chapter 3 I laid there on the massage table for a while. My bottom jaw had dropped and I was stuck in shock. My mind was racing with thoughts. Who was this girl? How the fuck did she get in here? What the fuck did I just get myself into? Did that really just happen? Ten minutes or so had passed before I gathered my thoughts and then just like that I was fine. Of course, I wasn't okay with the situation, but something came over me while I was sitting there on that table. I'm not too sure exactly what "it" was, but it was like a numbness. I went from being on the verge of tears to being dangerously calm. I dressed quickly and then headed to the door. I paused as I reached out for the knob, taking a moment to prepare for whatever was to come once I stepped outside of that room. Once I got in the hallway I could hear Donovan and his mystery woman attempting to have a hushed argument. I didn't want them to hear me coming so I crept down the hallway as quietly as I ...
