TOKEN SURBURBANITE

 

 

Somebody’s gonna be

pissed off

cause I live in the Suburbs

and I write poetry

 

I have some nerve

to trample on their turf

I come in from my comfortable

existence

 

I spew my “pretense”

they have to listen

and call me an asshole

 

well, let’s see about that

someone with no job

unable to cope; unable to adjust

 

lacking a real life

going to a reading

and ranting in front of 22 people

and delusional enough

to think I care

 

Come on, now

give me a fucking break!

You don’t honestly

expect me to be too upset

by your verdict

 

Now, do You
