Wisdom or Wit I

Wisdom or Wit Part I

If you came here my friends,

sincerely hoping to find,

glimmering words of wisdom,

oozing from my mind,

you are in more trouble,

more trouble that you think,

for living by my perilous thoughts,

will land you in the clink,

Not even smarter than the average bear,

there is way to much clatter,

constantly on a no-cal diet,

but still my a*s gets fatter,

working so hard, watching my money,

no, it's not a joke,

working to hard, it's not really funny,

and wah-lah, again I'm broke,

I try singing Valkyrie,

Wagner blows his mind,

now I'm playing Watchtower,

and Hendrix tries to find,

a deeper place to hide his ears,

a place I cannot reach,

While Ole Blue Eyes, clears his throat,

choking on a peach

I like the references to musicians "and Hendrix tries to find,a deeper place to hide his ears". This is fun to read, on the surface funny, yet after I think about it there is some serious stuff here, too like the reference to getting fatter yet being broke. I hear on the news how the less money people have the more overweight they are due to cheap food not being healthy,etc...your poem reminds me of this.
I like your music.
