Steven Elsner Poems

It would appear the thinking man has died
We can no longer have our stupidity hide
The wall has fallen down
Now released is the clown
...

In this day and age the idiotic proceed
Our society is crumbling
The ideas of individuality have been vanquished
Scruples are now decided by the television
...

It's always hard to tell
Just how hard I fell
For a girl like you
More than I knew
...

You should have said
That you didn't like the life I lead
I should have yelled
But knowing you, you would've rebelled
...

The hardest thing to do
Is resist that smile
That beautiful grin you construe
Has me on cloud 9 for a while
...

You're a true lover
Bearing a heart like no other
Compassion on your mind
Only one of a kind
...

Every time I think we're through
There is something that you do
That sticks me to you
Just like glue
...

The only thing I hate
Is that no one can relate
I have no shared emotions
This is all one big sad notion
...

I can not let you get away
So many things to say
You could never understand
That this is never what I planned
...

The staleness of life holds me down
Sometimes I need to act like a clown
Therefore, I call upon my friends
And the fun never ends
...
