Jack Bauer Year

A slam poetry tribute to 2024

By Joe PattersonPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Had no idea that we’d see a lot of cowards here.

2024. This was Jack Bauer year.

So much life and so much death and destruction.

It came in the form of exposé and corruption.

Broken bones that were left in a dark cast.

Quiet on set for Nickelodeon’s dark past.

Demon Diddy got exposed for his little freak offs.

The feds came knocking and they ran the little freak off.

Yes. The music industry is still giving more.

Kendrick Lamar and Drake had a whole civil war.

Made every fan wanna jump, fight and fuss.

While standing in rebellion saying ‘they not like us’.

All my favorite Hip Hop OG’s felt a new energy and used it.

They came from nowhere and started dropping great music.

The world of film was such a beautiful scene.

“Bad Boys: Ride or Die” and “Deadpool & Wolverine”. It was mean.

As for me. This year brought me a lot of glory.

Every month of this year I wrote a top story.

I swear I was the king and I felt like a don.

I went to a convention and met my favorite horror icon.

I made it on the right track and I swear it’s a fact.

I’m thankful all my friends and family had my back.

I worked hard without a minute to waste.

The end result was me finally gettin’ my own place.

We’ll let the good times roll. There will be plenty more.

Adíos let’s have a toast for 2024.
