PROLOGUE TO POETRY: THE WORST THING TO DO IS THE FIRST THING I DO
This is a poem entitled:
A CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST IS COMING TO MY ABODE TODAY SO I SUPPOSE ALL CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGISTS DON’T JUST WORK IN A CLINIC OR AM I ONLY BEING A CYNIC ?
Woman, I want to talk to you for real
I want to describe a thorough lack of motivation and zeal
I want to paint a picture with brushstrokes a mile wide
I want to explain that which results from something deleterious upon which I decide
I want to tell you a bit about the other wise lunacy of my youth
And a great deal about when weakness caused me to become both curt and uncouth
I want to describe needles, blood and a flood of frightful feelings
While I recount the scum bags with whom I’ve had dealings
I want you to hear about a child that became a man all too soon
It happened in a cheap hotel on a most fateful afternoon
I want to tell you about the first time and the way in which it felt
And some more about all those scum bags with whom I have dealt
Woman, I hope you will believe in the truthful things I am urged to say
Because I need to speak to you in a blatant and brutal way
So please sit there and hear the monologue of a monster made of mistakes
And a soul formed by the spirit of evil with a heart that too often breaks
