Back Pocket Poetry

[Card]

if you really want crits on them put them in one of the feedback forums, personally i'd put them here and make people smile for the sake of it.

Yeah, I get nervous in crowds. Four things calm me down: Reading, Drawing, Writing or Good Company. Lacking access to the last, and not feeling much for the first two, I turned to number three.
Also, the italics are supposed to be the title. I had them underlined at first, but thought the italics looked nicer. Reminded me of handwriting.

Maybe if you were to squint and you had your ears blown off you wouldn't notice.

Ah... women like ugly men. Men don't have to be pretty and delicate like a girl. Girls just want to be the most smart, the most beautiful, and the most interesting person in the room. They don't like to be upstaged.

But if you want to be a hermit, it's best not to look at girls. They'll get to you. Make you do things you don't want to do. And have poems tucked away in your pockets, drawing attention to the wrong bulge. Thus spoke Zarathrustra.

You made me explode into laughter with that last bit. I... really, that's gotta be some of the best advice to give someone.

But it's not as if I wanted to separate myself, there were... circumstances that really didn't affect anything but my mood. I got nervous around groups, and... well... yeah. Read. Which led to me being --speaking modestly here-- more intelligent than anyone else in my school, excepting teachers. Naturally, that led to more self-exclusion, which started to lead to exclusion by others.
But, hey, I've gotten a lot better. My face lends itself to others as a clown's (to put it delicately). When I'm in smaller groups, I can manage to be one of the funniest people in the room. Which is great, because I get satisfaction out of getting people to laugh (especially certain people).
And my voice is akin to Bozo's horn, so that "helps."

Anyways, I do believe I'll put some poems in the "For Fun" section. Later, though. I seem to have caught some nasty kind of bug.
