Poetry is Gay
Certain men
Despise poetry
Too many losers
No trophies
Nobody buys you a beer
When you nail it
Better than Christ
Nobody wants to hear
Some twice baked potato
Bitch about the weather
"Poetry is gay"
He said,
"I don't fuck around with that fag shit"
He continued,
"I collect discarded batteries"
Together we sang
"Sometimes I get lucky
And when they work
It's like I got paid
For doing nothing"
But couldn't bring
Ourselves to smile
