Yep, all work and no play makes bigfatrobot a dull blog. So, as a remedy, of sorts, it's angsty poetry time ...
What can I call my poem?
My poorly stitched slacks
Now lie on the ground
Torn and legless
My slovenly manufactured shirt
Has fallen off me
Like a cheap male stripper’s faux Navy uniform
I am not cursed with good looks
I am blessed with ugliness
Which provides a good mask for my inner dullness
I am on the dole
That is why I cannot afford a good Chardonnay
I’m hungry
I ate my poem
But I’m still hugry
This poem will not satisfy my stomach’s needs
Because it is cooked on cheap paper and sautéed with cheap ink
They say cigarettes quench hunger
But I have eaten ten of them now
And I’m still hungry
What can I call my poem?
