Fuck shakespeare, he makes me look bad

By Vicious Pixie

shall i compare thee...
nevermind, it's been done
fuck shakespeare and his iambic pentameter
my paltry phrases could never measure up

stuck at work
forever away from you
"baby, i feel you pulling me like a magnet.."
truer words were never uttered
damn you east coast stylee boys
and your suave and charming powers
*does the hall know that you use them for evil?*

nothing to write
yet here i am writing
imagining us camped out on a bed
in a sub par motel
cross legged, face to face
shot-gunning that sweet blue smoke

fuck
baby
i could sure use a drink
and a night of good lovin'
in your sweet-talkin' arms
bet you never thought you'd make a bitch like me blush

so now what to say?
ask me anything
and i'll tell you everything
all of my secrets
all of my fears
it's easier when i can't see your face
or read your reactions

did i tell you today
that i love the way...
nevermind
fuck rhyme
too structured...who needs it?
not us
nothing structured happening here
just a lot of free-fall

just one question:
doesthisfeelrushed?
it should
but it doesn't
is that wierd?
oh well...who cares?
not i
not about anything but you
and that smoky burboun and cigarette rockstar voice of yours
and when i get to hear it next

so now.. i've said it all
but mostly nothing
how many ways can you say three little words?
not enough baby, not enough.

    "nothing structured happening here just a lot of free-fall" - holy cow, I loved this piece, all chock full of phrases like this! I could hear this being read in a husky voice, gravelly with whiskey and smoke, tired, cynical, dead-pan humorous. The title fit this perfectly. Ciao, T/S Scholar

    Damn! I had to read this a few times. Each time all I could say was..."Damn". So, damn it is.
