when I was young
I wanted to fall in love
wanted to feel something
special with someone
and to be a rock star
and to travel the world
but now reality
has punched me in the gut
and dragged me through
the twelfth round
I have come to a different
truth
I wake up every morning
to the same sun
but I **** women to not
feel a thing
I demoted from
rock star
to poet,
and moved to
Philadelphia
from Florida
and hate it
here
