You Won't Believe This, But...!A Poem by Michael StevensThe truth, I promise!![]() You probably won't believe this, but this is a photograph of me and
what's-
her-name on a Caribbean beach last
year, She, topless, and me holding a
beer.
But, she photo-shopped me out of
the frame. Something about me never remembering
her name.
I told her, "Hey babe, there
are plenty of fish in the sea, plenty of
fish would lust and come after me,
I mean, just take a look at all
you'll be missing. Yeah, I suppose you think you're dissing
me, but talk about a waste of
time--oh, talking is good I suppose, but I'd leave you speechless when
you see me with no clothes!
Adonis in a speedo, that who I
resemble--and I know what you'll say, "You make a funny! Keep
dreaming--that'll be the day!
More like a flabby Charlie the Tuna,"--but
let me stop you right there. I would have treated you like a
queen, but you dared
to dump my a*s--oh yeah? Well, I've
been spared having to act all caring and s**t--when, like I
said--doesn't bother me at all! Fact
is, I happen to like being alone, all the time. So you
see, sending me this photo as a way of making me
sad, and rending
my heart just won't work, I'll show
you how little I think of you dumping me--"Hey
barkeep, another drink
down here, can't you see I'm
hurting, man? Oh, so funny--yes, yet-again!" © 2015 Michael Stevens |
