that's what I'm talking about

[constantine]

i have just begun to write!
forget the small crap
i'm going for the big boys
the heavy-hitters
like poppers for breakfast
disturbing shit, yet tastefully done
in the manner to which you are accustomed
with me, its always been the poem
you meant nothing to me
a carny sideshow i might stroll through on a wednesday evening
looking for the big dog and cardboard pizza
i was young - i didn't know better
but now, i eschew such matters
leaving me more time to refine my shit
and shoot for big boy country
it's what i like to refer as strategy
not a master plan like some teenage
comic book action-figure crap
but real poems about real people
that may or may not exist
that's what I'm talking about

good stuff...i would think that most of us that have been kickin' 'round the planet for some time should have plenty to say.....i see poetry the same as folklore.....stories that need to be passed down...everything doesn't need to carry the weight of the world necessarily, we just need to find ways to express deep emotions in ways that might ring a bell for someone, thereby strengthening the social fabric.....and weez gonna need a damn strong fabric to protect ourselves as we age into a seemingly quickly changing future...keep em comin'

real poems about real people
as seen on Judge Judy or Jerry Springer
that's what I am talking about.
...

thank you for the poem
please pardon the ramble
