I’m Picky

 draft 1 hospital room 

“ while I’m driving off laughing,

 this what I’ll say”- NWA

Look, 

don’t take it personally… 

I just have ridiculously high 

standards. 

And you , like so 

many other sad sacks

are gonna waste your 

precious 

time. 

and life’s so short. 

Your not 

the first to think well you had a shot…

but me, i’m bulletproof. 

i guess i’m just picky.

and you’re ass 

ain’t even gonna get 

picked last

just picked on-

i have to tolerate 

you out of respect 

for the people 

i actually respect-

but 

don’t expect this aspect

to change

your are beneath me like a bug 

under my shoe to inspect- 

Sherlock to Moriarty 

Batman to Joker

Blur to Oasis 

i’m on whole nother level

in different dimension 

practicing alchemy 

you’re picking your nose

and walking around 

with untied laces

saying let alone writing 

chelsey shit

I chose my rivals very carefully,

i have to respect my-

nemesis 

rival

adversary 

and i don’t 

respect you. 

I think your 

beneath me-

like the floor

like most poets

like basics being so basic it hurts 

(not to laugh)

arrogant 

arrogant 

intolerant 

no, i am my harshest critic 

my greatest enemy 

my opponent 

so many night spent 

self reflecting on my own

insignificance 

hubris 

ego-

you like so many before 

needed my attention 

but 

i got a deficit 

a disorder 

In this corner wearing black and yellow trunks 

hailing from the Sunny San Fernando Valley

The Rude Boy, The Poet of Pain, Throat  Slittin’ Singer, The dancer with two left feet,  The laundry mat comedian,

the daredevil of sleep

The Loser of Love,  The Heavy wait champion of  Cool King of Corny…. Thee Nefarious X! 

and In this corner….his challenger! 

…….., it 

definitely ain’t you.- 

chump.
