Jelly Bean
Boy, you want that trophy BAD.
Yah, you heard just what I said.
But do you know what I mean,
Jelly bean?
Your path to success
Is how you express
Reads the magnet on your ‘fridge.
You got me, Stonewall?
Boy you got a nerve,
And it’s mine, ya perve!
So you go fly a kite!
Who told you you could write?
Your pet turtle named Myrtle.
But that’s an insult to turtles,
Right!
When do you find time to compose
With index finger up your ass
Or your nose? Only Kleenex knows,
While wannabe is passin’ gas.
I wager things get really tense,
Though tenses in one-stanza verse,
Future and past, what could be worse,
To write with head that’s so IMMENSE!
How DO you get through salad days?
The way you write, it never pays!

The way most people write, it never pays, unless you're a performance poet, a good one at that with a big following &/or maybe have some residency stint at say somewhere like Glastonbury, for example. lol. ;-)
