Absent Minded
the back pages
In the back of my book
you will find
what my poems mean to me
in the back of my book i will tell you why
I put the poems in what order and why
In the back of my book I will reveal to you that my poems
and the order they are in contain a message
and I will reveal it to you like a novel
In the back of my book i will telll you that many of my poems
are about true events and real emotions
and the message contained are like epiphanies along the way of turmoil
and sometimes happiness and often great sorrow
In the backl of my book
i will ask if you were to read all this again
from the beginning middle or start
or fromn last page to the first
would you consider asking yourself
what poems were more appealing?
the darker ones or the happier lighter ones?
and am i truly a good author?
r just a good cry baby victom and you are entertained by my pleas for help
as i cry for amnesty and someone to do something
and in the end when i die
there are few among the living left alive who can say they didnt know
of anyone who didnt know who my liller was
or the day i was supposedly murdered
