Uncensored Thursday BullshitA Poem by Pegs Van Dammejudge me now, love me lateri cant quite tell where it’s coming from, this angst without a name. I just know it’s there, squeezing my stomach as if it was there to be squeezed. I wish i could pinpoint it so that i could squeeze it right back make it feel what its making me feel. What makes you think that you can do this to me buddy? Let me have this day, let me have this hour, let me have my life, and you? you can f**k off, I’m just trying to live, to think straight, but i can’t if I’m busy trying to find you wherever you are, somewhere between my heart and my hip because i know you’re not pulling at my loins I’d know if you were a girl, no you’re an a*****e, and a coward at that, squeezing cus you can because i can’t look inside myself, my eyes only look out. so you squeeze and you squeeze, i can almost feel you smiling, “ha ha, you can’t find me” while i sit here describing you on this page, outlining you, defining you, slowly trying to find you, slowly draining you out, until before you know it, this poem is all you are, my fingers are faucets, spitting you out onto the keyboard and translating you into computerized words, until you’re nothing but what i see, who’s laughing now, b***h? you’re out, and I’m here, hopefully someone can relate, look at this poem, and say, hey, this guy is kind of smart, this poem is kind of dope, because i hope the fight for my life, is entertaining. because at the end of the day, what’s our life defined by if not by the same factors that a movie is given its rating; it’s two thumbs up or its two thumbs down. what are we but a five star premiere, or a two star flop?© 2014 Pegs Van Damme |
