Me (a loose romantic inventory)
I'll first say
that I have not fucked
nearly as many woman
as some people think I have
but it's more
than the average joe suspects.
We are idiots,
but these things matter to men
and to poets.
I don't necessarily see myself as being wedded
or with whatever a white picket fence
translates to,
but I do like what comes out in me
when I bump into that particular mama
and togetherness seems like something
to fight my dishonesty for.
I am absolute shit on paper
no matter how crafty I phrase my mistakes
there is no miscommunicating that fact
but
I do have a few chops
worth seeing,
some from discipline,
others granted from a god
that I find more aesthetically appealing
to rebel against.
But most women dig artists
in theory only.
The problem with my not giving a shit
about which dish
goes where,
is that I'd prefer to escape altogether
into the studio, finding every answer
but, how I'll pay rent.
And despite the romance of language
that I need to piggy back my own confessions,
I know that I am completely worthless
unless of course,
you desire passion.
note: yes, I do know the video is sideways...I am extremely un tech savvy...I recorded this on my phone and couldn't figure out how to rotate...and sound sucks..oh well
