Array ( [sid] => 166661 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I am a passenger [time] => 2011-06-30 15:17:23 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I want more!
all if it's going
thicker,
longer,
richer
stronger
nothing is too much for me to take
originals required,I won't take fakes.
Detached with land,
large rock on hand
sea, surf, shoes, sand
and other gifts may surely guarantee
that you'll never be enough for me.

Never satisfied, I am
as nothing is enough
life isn't rough
my wants are tough
but love alone can't buy this stuff
Emotional outburst,
never has no worth
no class.
We must be witnessed error free
free is never good enough for me

I have expensive tastes
I move with haste
tried love with limited aspirational types before
but that doesn't give me what I want
a predator, I'm on the hunt
i'm little more than an expensive whore
yet I'm respected and admired
I never will be fired
i'll smile to get, even if i'm sore.

I'm always one step ahead
checking in, so my next bed
Is in a suite with an exquisite view
I'm always happy facing
for me, there's no replacing
i'm like glue,
you're always new
but remember, in bad times I won't make do.

Charity. I do my bit
quaffing champagne, I quietly sit
and clap with barely touching fingertips
I lick my lips and look at you
later that night, you know I'll do
as you demand
with lips or hand
done as if it was my own idea
your assets are the things that keep me near

my smile is fixed
all boxes ticked
I dress accordingly
educated boardingly
my friends abound,
they gather round, it says
they all learnt a very similar way.

And yet, I hate myself. [comments] => 0 [counter] => 128 [topic] => 21 [informant] => poeticjestix [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
