No American Knows How To Win (because we were never taught to lose)

Quick-Rhymes of Madman Kazinsky

This writing poetry thing has always had me obsessed
A simple pleasure I find more enjoyable than oral sex
Once one rhyme is written,
there's always another that comes next
So natural, it's kind of like a body reflex
that others try to mimic and
for this I have no respect
just like I can't detect in me
any of the same for the current president-elect
He's another garbage can racist with so many faces
he can't choose which to select
but this s**t I have writ
shouldn't be about American Politics
I guess I'm trying to be considerate
so I am sorry I even mentioned it
since most of y'all are functioning illiterates
Those of you that actually have a brain
do nothing with it except let
The Mainstream Mass Media steal it
Reality is much like an onion:
there are many layers so don't be afraid to peel it
even if it makes you cry and
everything ever taught to you in school
might not be a lie but it is damned sure not the Truth
But what is really true, anyway,
when all of humanity is hopelessly confused?
Such a question can only be asked by poetic fool
The only thing more real to me than Drew (Kazinsky)
is that no American really knows how to win
because we were never taught to lose.....

Reading writers like you is why I come to the cafe, you always entertain me, teach me or make me think-sometimes all at the same time.

Your words ring true my friend.

World is changing and the above lines. USA need to change or fall behind. Hard to win always. A wild and hard new world. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
