Me / not me
Feeling vain.
Typed my name
Into youtube just to see
If I was famous yet.
813 results.
Was disappointed to find
I had succumbed to depression
At the age of 17.
Had lost traction in my car
Puffing clouds of grey smoke,
Stink of rubber.
Apparently I no longer have
That twin turbo GN.
Probably for the best, really.
Am a hero to a small town
chamber of commerce
For the puzzling act of
bringing the goods back,
unmelted.
Play the guitar,
But not my guitar,
Not my music.
Not my hair, either.
Was pleased to learn I
once sang a duet
With Sarah Jessica Parker
So sweet I made the audience
Shed a tear or two.
even finished medical school
And launched a crusade to beat cancer
Once and for all.
Didn’t mention anywhere
That I was still
writing poems.
Oh well.

would it be bad to say I find this very entertaining?
maybe it is because I have difficulty digging into writing and I only briefly skim the surface.
But, regardless, I am pretty positive I like this. especially because i can relate to it. I've googled myself before! :)
Thanks, Taylor. Yeah, I admit this is not one of my deeper moments. Glad you enjoyed it!
