Poem Title:
Poem
It is amazing how many super important people there are in my hometown! At almost any intersection, I will be eclipsed by at least 2-3 individuals who are cooler Than I could ever aspire to think to become. Lately I see them everywhere! They look just like the people on the covers of those high quality magazines I see In line at the grocery store when I am buying my crate of ramen noodles, and The 4 for $5 Bar-S brand hot dogs. I can't help but to think, "WOW! Why haven't I seen any of these people on t.v. yet?" My adulation for people like Newton, the Incas, Brahmms, Klimt has been misplaced! Just when I felt like a wart infested slug for my lack of awareness, A gracious miracle occurred: This girl/woman/tranny pulled up next to me at a long traffic light. She wore those wonderful Jackie-o knock offs that almost cover the entire face, Making her nose look like this teensy-weensy little button! The a.c. blew her hair around like she was in a photo shoot, and After removing the cell phone that had neurally implanted itself to her head, She stared straight ahead, as if in a trance. I was sure that she was probably in deep thought concerning ways to feed starving babies, Or contemplating the lines for her next secret audition that only she knows about. Once the light turned chartreuse, she accelerated like a photon; This is when I noticed the scintillating rims that resembled the UFO that I communicated with Down by irrigation ditch the day before. This was a sign... I had to catch up with her and share this knowledge! I followed her the length of the city until she finally pulled Her behemoth into some swanky day spa that had no airs of pretentiousness whatsoever. It was weird because as I approached her vehicle, I began to sputter and stammer All of my words; I even began to inexplicably lurch as I walked towards her. When she saw me her eyes widened to the size of coffee saucers, and The next thing I knew was there were these wires attached to my chest! Suddenly I was dreaming of the time I ate mushrooms and touched a frayed cord On an alarm clock. When I awoke on the hot asphalt, my seraph had vanished into a mid afternoon haze. I had to give a toothy smile though- I knew that my body just couldn't handle the intensity Of her heavenly nimbus!
