This isn't pressing or important

just something to keep outlined

When you start to find it easier

to be cleverer than kind

Advice to a poet

Sometimes you will come up with dumb jokes

That are too oblong to confide

I dare you to try and write around it

Those limits will keep things simplified

The more hoops you jump, the more clever

Trap yourself onto a side

Copy and paste and reiterate

At least you can say that you tried

There is a dumb secret about language

It's mostly that it's just wide

People are easily impressed

As long as your writing shows pride

Loneliness and Insanity

And he said "I guess this is it"

And she said "Don't be a brat"

"REMEMBER ME WHEN YOU SHIT."

"TRUST ME, I'LL REMEMBER THAT."

SHE HEARD MUSIC FROM THE ORCHESTRA PIT

HIS FEET WERE AT THE DOORMAT

THE WHITES OF THEIR TEETH WERE MOONLIT

LIKE DETERGENT FROM THE LAUNDROMAT

HE WASN'T THE TYPE TO SHOW GRIT

WHEN THERE WAS A CHANCE OF COMBAT

BUT HER WORDS WERE PREPARED IN A KIT

PRIMED FOR THIS DEADLY CHAT

THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING TO HIT

WHEN THERE'S SOMEONE AT THE BAT

ONE OF THEM DEEMED THE HYPOCRITE

CONSUMED IN THE WINNING STRAT

HE HAD PLANNED TODAY'S OUTFIT

IN CASE HE NEEDED A HAT

SHE ANTICIPATED THAT HER BEST WIT

WOULD JUMP AHEAD AND JUST FALL FLAT

HE LIKES GIRLS WITH SMALL TITS

AND MYSTERIOUS, SPONTANEOUS TATS

SHE MAKES FART SOUNDS WITH HER ARMPIT

WHILE ALONE IN HER NATURAL HABITAT
