haha, when I posted I didn't even realize people were wondering about it. It's so bad. The poem is so bad. I liked it at the time, though. I used it for livejournal and then just sort of used it here too. It uses gelatin as a metaphor for the inability of young people to communicate in the world, and their willingness to line up into trend scenes or stupid (at least IMHO) political causes. Beyond that, it's basically stream of consciousness weirdness, like if I was on acid, only I wasn't.
I was a semi-unhappy, sexually frustrated kid!
THE POEM:
there's gelatin in the toilet and
i am feeling woozy
sophomores biting cats
fishtails
the sogginess of the number 1
is drenching me in depression
chunks of oranges are
floating in your eyes
easily mistaken for cannonballs
the constitutional right to
gumballs
must not be infringed
you've already lined up
behind charlton heston
you've already lined up
in the punk rawk scene
what will you turn into
pop culture next?
when will you decide
to take the skin off the grapes
and remove my apple core?
i look through the solid toilet water
i don't want to love you
you little sell-out
ah, adolescence..... what a wonderful time!
