"Yet what do I know of reality?"


Poem Artwork

Spam I Am:

The Lady Seemed Nice on the Phone

 

As I wait for snail mail

To find out how I fail

In society's way

To measure up today

I am just hoping that Social Security

Takes the answer of a social cancer like me

And will then leave me alone

To just be this little-known

And mentally-disabled poet which I am

Emailing myself to those who think I am spam

 

People delete what they cannot eat

Having consumed me now they excrete

But the lady seemed nice on the phone

Consumption: excretion

Assumption: deletion

In reality things look bleak for me

I am a homeless man in a house

I have a cat but I am the mouse

Yet what do I know of reality?

And the lady seemed nice on the phone

I wasn't prepared for the picture so it got a giggle, but the words make sad sense of reality...

Interesting and deceptively deep offering as always right to the point and a direct slur on the misdirected social programs of our times.

Above All a Tradewoman by Chris Belec-Joanet-Joannette

The experience of a young adult trying to figure out what they want to do for employment or education can be overwhelming. My book will give them insight to what it means to be a carpenter. And the progress unions have made in discrimination. Ge

The Ravyn: Riding the Cyclone by Jennifer Sloan by Erin Kelly-Moen

This book has been eight years in the making. It is mostly a jumble of thoughts written down in old spiral notebooks and hidden in the bottom drawer underneath various manuals for software packages and hardware long since turned obsolete.
