I got nothing

I got nothing

A Poem by Gomer LePoet
"

left to wander

"

I got nothing


the crack of the bat the pleas of the vendors

the roar of the crowd the snapping of suspenders

thumbs in my pockets so I can't hitch a ride

no longer the darling busted up inside


screaming for help but no one is there

heaven has left me so why should I care

no peanuts or popcorn to offer the crowd

the boos have started and getting quite loud


it wasn't her fault she had no real choice

how I do yearn to just hear her voice

the ushers escorted her to the proper table

from a distance she reminds me of Betty Grable


the circles of rambling getting much tighter

sleepless stirring pull another all-nighter

a string of pointless one-liners end to end

like Costanza I got nothing since I lost my friend
