Rocket James - *Rod McKuen Groupies

Описание

When I was a young man; writing poetry could get you laid. That’s if the guys didn’t beat the crap out of you first because they believed all poets were gay… If you wrote a bitchin’ rock song, your mates hailed you a God; but write a poem about love and affection and man you needed to enter the witness protection plan… The chicks really dug the poetry I used to write; while to my friends they laughed and thought it was all just a joke. But on a Friday night while they sat at home playing with their meat… I was eating some of the best pâté and caviar to be had, all because I found a readership that appreciated banal sappy crap. Irony is, as an old man…. I’m still wearing the white tennis shoes 2008 © rj Rocket James poemhunter.com/poem/rod-mckuen-groupies/
