50 AND SINGLE

poem on me

By Michael Boulatsakos Published 5 years ago 1 min read

I sit and think about it

more times than I wish

Knowing that the answer can not be found

in a petri dish

I hate the face that the world sees

the one that's held with skin

Magazines and all the hype

Blind to what's within

I think that I am nice

I am kind to everything

I realized very early

that it matters not

If I'm fat or thin

I'm old to those that I desire

The fact I have no hair

The fact my bank account is low

These people seem to care

I just want to be cuddled

To have my lips caressed

By someone of the opposite sex

The ones that do are blessed

For no matter what they tell you

No matter what they say

No matter if your gay ,straight,Bi

It is definitely this way

Money is the power

That brings your dreams to life

So I need to make money

To find myself a wife

Even though 50

Is half way to being dead

I will try and meet the one

When all is done and said

surreal poetry
