bro i was flipping through it today and i found this absolute gem:

If I somehow get detained at the border
It would be a real shame
If I didn't finish
This red velvet cupcake

F***ing love that one, wish I wrote it

crazy how nobody even paid this guy any attention, much less bought his book. nobody gives a f*** about poetry.

Jonboi! Good talking to you again. I see you pop up in other threads. How’s the poetry going? I’m ready to start writing again, more potent! I was somewhere in Eastern Europe when I was going through the boarder on that one! People’s minds are too fried for poetry, that’s why I think the poems are getting so short. Remember in some movies, people would just recite memorized poems at like a bonfire or while trying to pick up chicks. The Irish would do it in a pub. Good times !

Damn bro you're out here living your best life, goin Hunter Thompson. I don't mind short poems. A lot of mine are like that. A lot of yours are. A poem could be like a lil comic strip or whatever. but yeah, the long stuff has us fried. i'm part of the problem. Poetry is going well. Writing a lot, working on my 2nd poetry book.
