Letter to the Blonde BombshellA Poem by Satchmo's GalI know I’m not perfect As perfect as you The scars my memoirs Of pain I’ve been through. I lie And I cry And I f**k up Sometimes I can’t see my luck If it looked me in the eyes And my rhymes aren’t mere wit Merely cookie-cut From centuries of classic lit. But at least I can be touched. At least I’m not pressured Into something that’s not me At least I don’t let cliques And trends Define who I can be. So look down on me With your manicured nails Your boy-toy at your side. Because when you hit reality There nowhere you can hide. © 2010 Satchmo's GalReviews
