i throw a rock at life

Post by **constantine** » March 4th, 2009, 9:36 pm

can't keep me down, baby
i'm irrepressible
the indomitable human spirit
that's what they call it
and that's what i got
i throw a rock at life
i spit in its eye
it can fuck me all it wants
but i come back a virgin
every time
can't keep me down, baby
i'm a poem ready to happen

Yeah, life and me. We joyfully participate in tossing little nuggets at each other. As it should be, said some Zen lounge crooner who looked nothing at all like the opening act in some Wayne Newton casino. Yeah, it's like that sometimes.
