+# Poetry Portfolio
+**NOTE**:  This was meant to be a Google Slides.  Ordinary people would *do* a google slides.  Unfortunately, *I AM NOT ORDINARY PEOPLE*, and I needed content, so I put it on this site!

+## Poem #1
+```plaintext
+A distraction on my desk,
+Noise seeming to block out the rest.
+It seems impossible to focus on a test,
+with such a device on my desk.
+With apps competing for my attention,
+All trying to make an impression,
+it just feels like a depression.
+A day that I don't give my attention as expected,
+Watching meaningless numbers ever climb
+Friends of mine climb to my door,
+Wondering why I didn't
+Give into the push notifications in my pocket.
+```
+
+## Loud in Here
+<!-- LoudInHere -->
+```text
+It’s loud in here:
+The thoughts never stop knocking on my door
+It’s crazy in here, a never-ending brainstorm
+Just can’t hear through the chaos and the noise
+
+Looping in C++ or a explosive pencil sharpener,
+Questions unbidden, taking up space.
+I long to silence this cognitive flood,
+If only I could, oh, I surely would.
+
+Random questions, with no purpose
+Stuff like the proper rhyme and reason of
+Not looping malloc() in C++, or potentially
+How to sharpen a pencil explosively with a whoosh and a boom
+```
