Something Funny Happened On The Way Back From Denver Poem by Catherine White

Something Funny Happened On The Way Back From Denver



I felt the distance

You had no shame

Carrying on 

Continuing the game

I knew before we left

It wasn't just me

Yet you went along 

Like I couldn't see


The darkness in your eyes

Your inability to touch 

You starting acting like

You did before 

When you were f*cking that other wh*re


I felt it, knew it, was sick in my gut

Yet I took you along

Knowing this will be our last trip


You used my kIndness to snatch your next victim

Look, baby girl! I'm in Denver…

I'm someone different

Yet I'm not

I would not have a damn thing

If it wasn't for fake love


Using a girl to impress

Cause you can't do it on your own

All you care about is the chase

Cause you can't be alone


In the quiet of the day

Your brain needs diverted

From thinking about the things

That makes you perverted.


Don't be a bitch

Don't try to lie

Cause

Every girl will eventually see

That you're black on the inside.

If you'd like me to tackle it again, remind me to give it a try. Do so in a message to me in PH's Message area. ;) bri

I may return to leave more comments and maybe stars, but, to be HONEST about it, I honestly don't feel like tackling the poem again for a while.

(cont.) For THAT, Catherine, you should receive 84 lashes with a wet noodle/pasta. Ok, I'll have mercy and JUST give you this: 'Welcome to PH! ! ' bri ;)

I think 'Funny' MUST mean 'STRANGE'. Am I correct? I was hoping for something funny/ha ha, but NOOOOO! You, Catherine, surprised me. (cont.)
