A Poem by eli mercuree rue

it is self.absorbed

far from the result

of being paranoid

 

what it has to do

with is simple

quick right and what|ever

else does fit the task

 

take it

load it

re.load it

end it

 

 

silly people [still] make her laugh

hmm

"it is self.absored" (absorbed?)

paranoid
silly
people

end
silly
people
simple

each time i read it
i don't relate much
until i get to the last line

you kind of have to work backwards
and suss out the story
from the darkly sullen final

narrator planning on blowing away
all those "silly people" because had enough of the s**t?

"take it
load it
re.load it
end it"

or am i being too simplistic there?

maybe it's all deliberately disconnected
like the final line is a random thought
no less important
yet not a clue
to what the rest of it means

although i think it is

because of the accusatory
"paranoid" and "self.absorbed" (if it is absorbed)

like it stems from a heated discussion
and the result
was a non result
[as demonstrated
in the last line]

the second stanza has me baffled
in terms of knowing exactly what
and i'm probably far off with the rest
but i don't feel like i'm shooting blind there

ed.u.cat.ed guess
-ing
can get you nowhere

i like it
no kidding
but i can't say i love it
because to love you must know and to know you must understand
at least a little
and i don't know if i understand

i'd take it for a slice and a soda
[do american kids do that outside of books and tv?]
and see where we were heading
but i wouldn't tell it
i l-o-v-e-d it
until it explained

exactly why it spat pizza and soda
back in my face

yo.
message me when ya get time.
