Poem Commentary

I wrote this poem after a fight in a parking lot, over a parking spot.(note: three empty spots on either side of where I parked, and somebody said," I took his spot", there was a fight, cops were called and neither had charges filed against them.) I was on top when the cops showed up.

Sometimes It's Better To Be # 2

        Send me to the moon -
Do you think I would care?
        Send me to the Russian front,
If you dare...
        Send me away,
To keep you from harm -
        Send me to a place,
They call the funny farm.

        I don't give a DAMN !!
I can escape from here,
        Then, I'll be back in your face,
 To bring you more cheer.

        I'm still inside, PAL !!
But, I'm getting out.
        It won't be long,  Before,
I right my wrong -
        And thats a GUARANTEE,
with-out a doubt.

        When I get out,
Who do you think I will hunt?
         I will hunt you,  Because,
You are a sniveling little PUNK !

         I will find YOU, -
And DEATH, It will be -
         Because:
  You thought,"You were number 1",
         But,
YOU DIDN'T COUNT ME !!

wow, I'm scared of you! LOL I liked the flow of this. It's dark, too. I like dark.

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
