I don’t know why I put this on facebook and not on my blog. I wrote this poem on November 27th 2010. This is my first poem in more than 10 years,I'm not much of a poet but my muse seemed to insist on it tonight. Under the circumstances of the new revolution, I sure hope it’s out of place
It’s a big ugly world
With big ugly words
And big ugly creatures
Roaming this earth
Big ugly men
With big ugly egos
They make big decisions
That come down to two zeroes
And big ugly streets
Make a beautiful city
A big ugly freak
Ideas are born;
Big ugly babies
They fester and rot
Turn people to crazies
Women that work
And marry and die
Have big ugly fears
Sucking them dry
She has to work
A big ugly job
To prove to the world
She isn’t a flop
Her big ugly aunt
Is just big and ugly
Keeps telling her to quit
And find a good hubby
Who cares what they think
They’re stupid not ugly
But ugly they are
Yet freakishly touchy
They force their opinions
Big, stupid and ugly
And tell you to drop it
You’re being so ugly!
Those big ugly thinkers
With big ugly beards
And big ugly words
Maiming their pears
Big ugly children
That don’t know respect
And big ugly teachers
Who forgot how to spell
It’s a big ugly universe
Full of big ugly jokes
That aren’t even funny
Who cares, have a smoke!
