How provocative can I get? People always tell me My brain and my mouth don't connect. I have a good head on my shoulders Or so they think And an unlucky case of "Foot-in-mouth" syndrome. The awkward first impressions are the best. I'm pretty good with adults As long as they can hold a conversation with me Long enough to break the ten foot-thick ice. But oh, I'm smart That's what they call it now? ******** my life up Throwing everything that has been given to me away For a boy, a dream, a utopia? That's smart? I think not. Sexcapades never go so swimmingly With men ranging in age A mouth like a cannon on me Spewing curse words around authoritative figures Never leaving anything to imagination Being too blunt Speaking first, thinking later? They call me provocative As if it is a problem. Well, if I'm a problem Then count me in.
