Things I Don'T Want To Know

THINGS  I  DON’T  WANT  TO  KNOW


In romantic dramas where boy meets girl, maybe his  ex,
How many times or in what position they have sex.
In action scenes of battle or  western gunfights,
Which arms and legs  are ripped off by bullets.
In Presidential  politics, or Senate election,
Who was the intern and how big was the ********.
In magazines of the stars and their homes,
With whom  does each sleep when the partner roams.
In interviews with supermodels, (a notable  tv time-waste)
Where they buy their socks, undershorts, or toothpaste.
When people  talk about their drinking habits
Exactly why they threw up, and in what toilets.
In earnest interviews with radical fundamental men,
How long before the world is going to end  (again?).
