[Crappy title that conveys less meaning than everything else because it's self-deprecating]
Thank you for pumping up my tire
Your nice.
Your voice is nice.
You're getting older, less graceful
But we adore you—I adore you.
Your like grandpa, the best in the biz
You're a wiz. That's from the Tom and
Jerry movie.
Well, thank you. I don't want to set
an elaborate trap.
No logorrhea.
I wouldn't like to yodel no songs with you.
Nor would I say 'thank you for [whatever you've done]
Because, firstly, I'd have to do that too many times, and
Secondly, it really just takes away from your actions.
But thank you.
Do you want your poem now?
Here's your poem now.
No prosody flowing through me
But I tap my pencil down down, on the paper ground-ound
My thoughts aren't in the right round, though round may not be right round
Nor the right right, not in the rightly right-hand way, that's what I'd like a say.
May not be level, maybe dishevel', but please do sanction me— pray, don't sanction me —
To stay for sanctuary— 'Sanctuary!'
No Poe flows through me
But my pen— on the cill —I'm bound to bound, can't wait to collect my recollections
And have them bound, have this on the paper, have you swoon, even when we turn to vapour
I want to be meaningful
I want the wont to be meaningful
Sorry if I won't be 'meaningful'
But I want to be meaningful
I know you're a joker, and all the things betwixt
I know sometimes you're angry, yet I won't ask you for a Twix
I'm sorry 'bout sour sorrow we sometimes extrude, we don't want to exclude what you exude— not to say your salty tears are disgusting discharge —
Sorry when we charge, in this grand apologue, you with renege of policy
I know it's part of the policy, our young little wisdom is no wisdom to be.
No poetry knows me, no poetry I know
But my utensil still scratches at the parchment, almost like an utmost refreshment, because I love and I love it for you, I love it for me
I just want you to know the reality, the actuality.
Thanks for your cognizance, it's nice.
That my sutra may be known, that my litany worth litas is comprehended.
Rendered useful in you archives.
Sorry for being so impercise
The essence of verselets, I breath it in, delivered from my lungs to my bobbing heart, the blood travels through my veins and—
The lines flow through me
Even in the moment of my pencil not cutting through the sheets, my body soars as my body beats, and I'm—
Sorry, this poem doesn't seem to be about you, but the theme of the poem isn't about you, it can't be about you, we both know the only reason your connected to this poem is because you said I could.
