You KNOW why you like me? <br />Because I'm the effigy society burns <br />on it's altar <br />and I make that little pang in your <br />heart * <br /> <br /> <br />You like me because-I tell you <br /> <br />all about my dirty unwashed hair <br />and my dirty unwashed lovers <br />and my dirty unwatched health <br /> <br />If I were a millionaire <br />or a fake <br /> <br />or YOU <br />I might not have the same all out <br /> <br />beat 'em up <br /> <br />scrape your throat like a pointed <br /> <br />fish.bone kind of impact <br /> <br />You KNOW why you like me? <br />Because you see me/ <br />but you don't gotta be me.<br /><br />Smack Thompson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/what-if-i-was-just-your-mirror-self/
