I am a cliché A soul walked along the water The winds yelling cliché cliché A dark soul was on the other side waiting The winds yelled again cliché cliché The two souls met inside this cliché Of dark poetic solitude They ordered drinks and black roses In the cafe of clichés From the skies appeared an Angel Looking down upon this earth At the clichés of life The angel too walked in the bar of dead souls Immediately she realized I have walked into a cliché of dreams The most terrible of poem and verse Attacks my very, my very, yes oh yes, my very soul Then it dawned on this angel of the evening That he too is a cliché and somewhat confused The three of them in the darkness of life’s parodies They downed some shots and spilled some blood Slightly inebriated one looked at the other two? He demanded what the hell is a cliché anyways? The darkest of souls, replied, I think is Spanish for friends! This narrative my friend is a poetic rendition of the three amigos Touché Ops I mean cliché My Lobster means it too
