The poetry I write
Most suitable for slams
I tend to slam!
In the trash can
Needing Little
This life has taught me
To not need much
Or rely on many
To be happy
That’s why l will be
Retiring at fifty
As a wealthy
And social
Pauper
Pandemic Graffiti
The pandemic
Was graffiti
Thrown on everyone’s
Friendscape paintings
Rational People
Most people
Are absolutely rational
Unto themselves
Fear of Painting
I want to paint more
But I am afraid
Of how badly
The paintings will turn out
Instagram Scratch & Win
Instagram posts
Carry the thrill of a cheap
Scratch and win ticket
With the prize in Likes
And the occasional Follow
Revealed in but minutes
A-Type Procrastinator
I am an A-type personality
Which includes procrastination
Though I am
At least
A productive procrastinator
I get all kinds of stuff done
Just not the stuff I need to get done
Conversations with Pornstars
In a secret life
I get to converse with pornstars
Though just on social media
Because I have genuine
And meaningful things to say
Unlike most wanting their attention
Inadequate Criticisms
Some people don’t think
I take criticisms well
But the opposite is true
I take criticisms very well
I just critique them first for value
And most don’t do well
So why should I take them?
Please do tell!
However
Those criticism
That I judge well for value
I take them very well!
Conspiracy Theorist Mentality
Taking up a conspiracy theory
Is the easiest
And laziest
Way to become an expert
Because there’s not much to it
And next to no one is studying it
In an increasingly complex world
Some people are just too lazy
And/or too stupid
To work
And/or learn
To earn some respect
Stay Away from Fires
You are gas
Not water
For fires you try to douse
So restrain yourself
When you feel like helping out
Moral Mirror
Most people have a mirror
Many have a few more
But most don’t have a mirror
To show us by our mores
So we can look in the mirror
And see what kind of person we are
A sort of moral mirror
Now needed ever more
