why ya' wanta'
E' me that way.
damn girl.
wadda' i say?

i'm just an old hippie.
an old poet.
what i say,
everbody knowit.

why treat me mean?
why holler' & scream?

i just spoke what i thought.
i just speak what i think.

hey, darlin',
take a drink.

chill.
cool.
get real.
let reason rule.

why ya' wanna' E-me
that way.
you got sumpin' ta' say.
scrive.
write.
don't bite.

i'm just a fool.
sittin' in the corner.
with the dunce cap.
sittin' in the corner
givin' life a recap.

ya' don't have to scream.
ya' don't have to holler.
if people want ta' hear ya'
they will foller.

damn.
shit.
pardon me.
excuse my ignorance.
i'm just a fool.
sittin' in the corner.
sittin' on the stool.

why ya' wanna'
E-me that way.
damn girl,
say what ya' got ta' say.
but please,
please...
don't E-threat me.
not that way.

what a waste
of good cuss words.
sendin' them to me.
see,
i have a few of my own
to me they are already known.

so why?
why?
E-mail me your shit.
hey, love.....
don't like what i write
then GIT
off my page.
don't give me your rage.

treason.
reason.
season's that pass.

in the mean time,
hey kiss my ass.

by the way,
why'd ya' wanna'
E-me that way?

what did i say to you?
sumpin' bout'
the red white & blue?

freedom of speech & such.
guess to a free speaker
those words
don't mean much.

american i am.
a true Texican.
a man.
uncle sam.

words i write.
words i speak.
words i think.

poet i am.
poet i be.
poetry.
words, just words,
can't you see?

why E-me that way.
damn.
just say what ya' have to say.
don't hide in the E-mail,
don't express yourself that way.

scrive.
write.
poetry.

that's what i do.
hey E-mail chicken shit
how about you?


( i wish i could apologize but i can't. i am tired of being unloaded upon at me email address for sayin basically "give peace a chance". 911 was a real mess, but nevermind.......just leave me alone ok. i'm tired of the whole mess. all i do is throw words at a page ok. i am apolitical as they come. )
please leave me alone & let me write poetry ok)

Steve...look at it this way: someone fired you up enough for letting loose another opinion piece. That's not really a bad thing. :)

Other than that, just delete!
