I like Bruce Springsteen

I used to not like him because

it wasn't cool to like him

but now I like him

for the most part, anyway

I wonder if he smokes cigarettes

and drinks beer and wine and hard alcohol, and has a swollen belly, and has dark rings around his eyes from all the years of abuse,

I wonder if he has no friends and women reject him all the time

and he gets fired from all the jobs he's had

probably not

because he is the boss

you cant reject anyone who's the boss

and I'm not talking about that show in the 80's

with that little cunt of a son and that bitch daughter

what a stupid show

stupid people have much more luck than non stupid people

that's life

Bruce, you will probably out live me

and make more money than I will ever make in my lifetime

and you probably fucked more hot chicks than I have

you probably drive a better car

and your house is way better than where I live

and you probably don't have a swollen alcoholic belly and dark rings around your eyes

because you're the boss

and it's all my fault

baby

I can't help it

I probably can, but I don't want to

I'm on my way out

and I'm slamming the door when I die

like a tree falling in the forest

burnt poems

unheard music

a life

used

abused

and left

like trash in the street
