the great thing about the pen felt poetry is
you can write about any strange variety of subjects
and people will label you to their will
from new wave genius of verse
lover fallen from grace
a woman of decided skill
to nothing but overrated Neo-Nazi over kill
mind you, not that I don't fit any one of those
descriptions for such a bill
but who cares what the proverbial 'they' say
as long as I'm free to write my fill
I remain in charge and at large to this day still
so I am still the king of my own hill
as long as Melissa is speaking out on such far left
wing issues
let us use the pro/con method of do nots and dos
to love is to give and never expect anything in return
to endure is to keep your eyes open and the tears bit
back no matter how badly they start to burn
and as I approach the the conclusion of this gleeful
gloom
embarrassment upon my cheeky cheeks has warmed and
started to bloom
please don't think I constantly keep my face in the
bosom of death and doom
I'm just trying to keep myself out of trouble and to
stir in this decade's version of the 60's baby boom.......
