Poetprentice Dupins Poet Personification

Mr Remington Goes To Therapy- Session One

I’m always loud. I was never really good at whispering 

I have a love/hate relationship with people and animals

I suffer from bulimia and my vomit is sometimes deadly

I’m mostly an introvert, however, sometimes I can get flashy when I want things 

Sometimes I don’t feel like talking

My past partners would say I have commitment issues but that’s just because they don’t treat me right.  I don’t ask for much, just a nice oil massage every now and then. 

I can be violent but it’s never intentional. 

I often go off on people. It’s not my fault though.  One time I went off on somebody’s daughter.  Another time I went off on some bonehead idiot who just didn’t understand me, often using and abusing me. I’ve had scratches and sawed-off parts of me that I can never get back. 

Again, though I can be violent, it’s never intentional. Just the other day a nice lady, grieving the loss of her son, wanted to ultimately put the blame on me! Can you believe this??? This happens all the time though.  It never gets old. 

I mean, let’s not flip out here. It’s not my will that your son should die. 
The devil made me do it. 

Anyway, that’s pretty much my life. How I came to be the fascination and ultimate goal of attainment for young boys in which they emulate immolating with such sadistic and satiating horror is beyond me. 

I can only be myself.

I wasn't sure if the Flip-Wil-son wordplay and reference would be too dated for some people, but when I performed this piece, there were a lot of people who caught it.
