i only do this for the image

i only do this for the image

A Poem by Mike Melanson

why don't you ask me what i'm writing,
really, because its all about you, i swear

why don't you keep on wondering
what it is i'm doing, sitting over here
by myself, scribbling away in my book,
because, really, its all about you.

i only do this for the intrigue.

i only do this for the image.

i only do this for your oh so subtle interrogations
and because it lures the ladies.

let's do the dance, let's dosie-doe
around the obvious

I found this to be amusing as I am unsure if its intent is sincere or ironic. Regardless, I have never read anything quite like it before -- and I believe there is something to be said for that.
