JUNE

Alas, June is here

and I insist, there
is something far more humorous
than intelligible about such statement

as funny as how failed athletes
become writers
like jim carrol
and my much mentioned bukowski
and I remind you I have never cared much for sports

as funny as leaving Canada in May
to another winter

as funny as kissing your first boyfriend
for the first time
on April fools day
(1st of the 4th
while his your first
you´re his fourth)

as funny as losing
a condom inside you for a week

as funny as performing 6 times a week
for 3 weeks
as a horse
and realizing the only reason
you ever even auditioned for the show
was because a stranger was jerking off in front of you

as funny as breaking a friendship
with your female friend
after kissing her on the lips
-content with the fact that maybe she's hot
but you're a way better kisser

as funny as rereading some of your poems
and not really understanding them

as funny as being 21
and having unbearable back and knee pains

as funny as losing your virginity to a guy
who says you have the most beautiful
vagina he has ever seen
and not being sure how you feel about the fact
that he's comparing it to over twenty others

as funny as returning to
the exact place you had never wanted to leave
and wishing you had never come back

as funny as not caring
to be a turn off to people anymore
they already haven't done it for you anyway

as funny as thinking that
more than 5 people
have checked your blog

as funny as getting
excessively tired after drinking too
much coffee
and getting insomnia from calmants

as funny as not really knowing
what the hell you´re talking about
and whether or not you wanna
finish up the poem.

Alas, June is here.
