Library Poem
A different time
A different place
A different name
A different space
But it all seems
So similar indeed
Listen closely
To my words
Take heed
I'm waiting for
Something real
Waiting to love
And to feel
I've shown kindness
To others
This seems true
I don't know
To do with the time
Do you?
Went to the library
And to the gym
Is the planet
A computer simulation
A type of game
But I'm not trying to win
And I will only work
One or two days at most
I'm not here to brag
Or to boast
Everyone talks about ***
All the time
But I don't really need it
I feel fine
Being a man is boring indeed
One or two *******
Expelled forth
With great speed
Women can ***
Again and again
They play with
Their vibrators
It is no sin
And I'm searching
For something real
And I'm trying to feel
Is it all a dream
A dream?
And I have been here before
This time and this place
The same librarian
With the same face
And the clock ticking
On the wall
Everything would be fine
It if wasn't for Adam's fall
Picked up my new glasses
I ordered two days ago
And when the rain freezes
It becomes snow
And when the snow falls
That is winter time
And sometimes at night
I have a sip of wine
And what is the self
And who am I?
Should I go on a hike
Should I stop asking why?
The world is so big
And I am so small
I look forward
To an accounting
Of us all
Trump or Clinton
Who cares who wins
America's prosperity
Wearing thin
I got new glasses
But forgot to order
The transition lens
Life feels like
I am counting down
From a trillion by tens
Why this burden
Why such misery
Fields of gold
That song by Sting
Sounds good to me
Would like a female friend
Someone to hold
Life a piece of stale bread
Life kind of grows old
Still the variety
Makes it often fun
Try to stay out of
The hot sun
