Poems about not getting it
If you’re not First then you’re probably One
I never like writing abbreviations in a date st. nd. rd. th. If you can’t read a date without instinctually knowing how it's meant to sound, maybe you shouldn’t be reading at all. It’s the same with poetry It's the same with fiction With music. If you want something spelled out for you then you have come to the wrong place, you are looking for the self help aisle or the opinion section of The New York Times. Maybe art isn’t a noun but a verb. Perhaps it’s an exchange. What’s that old saying? You can lead a dog to water, but he might piss in it anyway? Some don’t get it, some don't even try. Self proclaimed intellectuals, but can’t sit through the entirety of a Pink Floyd song, let alone the album. The skip button should have never been implemented. The skip button is made for the same people that skim Steinbeck or claim Tarantino has no plot. Maybe I’m pompous.. Maybe I’m biased, self indulgent, critical, half-empty, ill-tempered. Maybe I’m just rambling into the abyss. But at least I can smile at the sun while the rest put on their shades.
The best songs are the saddest
The swallows outside my apartment are sounding off in alarm because a crow has taken one of their own torn it to shreds and flown away with half. I know because I watched it all. And they flew towards me as if to ask for help but what could I do? Now they have gathered above the scene, chirping wildly, which to them must sound like screams, but to me they sound more beautiful than ever.
If ya liked this you’ll probably like this, because underneath it all life makes you nauseous too.
