A poem I wrote in 2007. It was ahead of its time at the time. The few who read it said "what?"
In the land of milk and honey
There are many lessons to learn about life
People, places and yeah, so many things
Politics and the genius media
The opposite sex delivers frequent ambushes
and at the most indecent hours
Money and the social strata
Spectrums everywhere
Where do you sit on the ADD spectrum?
Trends will catch up to you
Either you dress funny, or drive a gas guzzler against all reason
Or worst of all drive none at all (very unfortunate)
You work hard and you try. Lord knows you try.
And you are home; you are delivered
And you just read a nice time piece about the good ol' days
You flip the cable channels
You're feeling lucky
and close your eyes...
Click, click, click
Now open your eyes
"As Good As It Gets" on TBS
Click, click, click
NFL is still in pre-season
Click, click, click
Oh my god - suicide, robbery, fires, quakes and Michael Vick.
They say my voice is going to change
When the world says you're wrong despite the
voices in your head
telling your right (rite)
The conflict lights a proverbial match under your ass
Your hot air balloon is flammable
Your Zeppelin just exploded all over your face
Excellent!
