lonely boy blues

i'm just a lonely boy, lonely and blue nobody cares what i say or do nobody cares what i know or think nobody cares what i eat or drink nobody cares if my limo is waitin or i worship jesus allah or satan nobody cares if my star is fadin or i carry a picture of omar bin laden in my wallet with my mom and dog or how many lonely miles i slog or the baby jesus in his manger turns me away - the flaming stranger

poem # 4

have you ever loved a woman and she didn't love you back? have you ever been hit by a freight train when you were walking down the track? have you ever watched a bumblebee hover over a flower? have you ever wished you could live forever just for one hour? have you ever watched a raindrop disappear down a drain? have you ever stepped on a spider and never felt its pain? have you ever gone to the drugstore and ordered a sandwich there and eaten it and eaten it and eaten it till people started to stare? have you ever loved a woman and she called you a pathetic fool? have you ever sat on the sidewalk and wished you didn't have to go to school?
