Only A Fool

Call me a fool--

an insecure idiot,

day-dreaming dunce,

bold buffoon, walkie-talkie loon,

a horny half-wit.

Just another needy nincompoop,

deluded dullard dancing under moon,

irritating imbecile,

creative creatine wallpapering my cell,

sultry simpleton without a veil.

Hey, crazy clod,

confounded cretin--rather odd,

drifting dope---lucky penny

a needy ninny, pig of guinea

an infatuated ignoramus.

Realize, you put both feet in--

cannon-balled the middle

of his deepest end,

without seeing how wide

the pool extends.

  Ha! That, I seriously doubt. I had fun playing with the idea of a fool. I really like the artist featured, and the singer, Valerie June. My work is just window-dressing.
