    I am who I am

    Since..Spekz no showed. If he shows up close this. Also I will post links later. promise.
    =


    Its become a known factthat I can get any woman that I want
    no matter how pretty or beautiful
    if I put in a little effort, I can get them
    to fall in love with me.
    Don't call me Adonis, or liken me to anything classical
    I am not shaped like statues, but lumps of clay
    I mold myself to fit in recognizable geometric shapes
    A triangle can be poignant, with sunken eyes
    and three-day stubble.



    Hell, I jumped on Sasha Grey's bed with her
    and she is a porn star.
    its not that I am amazingly good looking.
    I'm decent looking, but
    there is an odd thing about me,
    a magneticism, I suppose.
    If you find me at either pole,
    I'll be standing with a flag - crimson cursives
    on a white backing, my initials,
    NAW, flashing against an infinite
    of cursed melting.



    The other thing is - and it is almost a curse,
    is that nobody will ever leave me, or
    they haven't. I always have to leave them.
    And I always have. And I have never been dumped
    Not truly.
    Leave me, and I will find you.
    I won't haunt you, but damn close.


    It has something to do with the way I eat girls out.
    It really does, I think.
    The last girl I went down on, came six times.
    And then couldn't fuck because her body was too tired.
    When I do fuck, my dick isn't huge or anything -
    a little bit above average, but, I know exactly how
    to manipulate a woman's body.
    Heh....heh....heh....heh...


    I am very intelligent - I did so many drugs
    all through university, and still walked away, with close to
    a 4.0 GPA. Eventually, I just started fucking with
    my professors - you know, manipulating them through
    my writing, convincing them of things they did not believe,
    writing short stories instead of essays.
    Rapbattles.com is a liminal representation of anti-culture as a whole - in fact, it has shaped part of me, a strange core, dark blue or maybe purple, that floats in small sharp circles through my tract - it has been closely correspondent to my coming of age as well as my transition into adulthood - but, I would never admit that, nononononono


    Don't get me wrong - I'm not some spoiled rich kid
    that has everything given to me - that buys my way through life.
    I grew up fairly close to poor, on that
    teetering edge - worked full time to pay my way through university, and I don't take handouts.
    Things aren't all rosie though
    I am not an asshole - actually, the opposite, I am
    a very nice guy, very loving, a hopeless romantic,
    but, my smarts do work against me.
    I find I manipulate people all of the time, to make them love me back. As a result, finding real things
    in this world becomes difficult.
    I am being arrogant,
    but if I wasn't so arrogant,
    I wouldn't be where I am. A hotshot young publisher,
    hopefully moving up the ranks
    hopefully deciding the fate of literature, someday.
    And I am happy shaping those things - my hands are rough
    and large, like that of a carpenter,
    and I will build things more beautiful than cathedrals.
    You watch - and just trust me, one day I won't be around,
    but you'll find my name inside the books, that
    decide fates, and move young people, to shape the world.


    And you will recognize me by a trail of broken people.

    Re: I am who I am

    I liked the language of this poem, I didn’t see the point of some parts but others were really good. I liked the random-ness to it, it’s something I enjoy especially when the language is good enough, which yours is. It’s a shame that you got no-showed though as it would have been interesting to see what Spekz could have wrote.

    Anyhow, sorry for this shit feed man but It’s tea time and I thought I ‘d leave you some comments before I go.

    Re: I am who I am

    lmao to be honest, I thought this piece was going to be about a std, at least that's what I got from the first 4 stanzas. I liked the language as well, very casual and easy to get into.

    The other thing is - and it is almost a curse,
    is that nobody will ever leave me, or
    they haven't. I always have to leave them.
    And I always have. And I have never been dumped
    Not truly.
    Leave me, and I will find you.
    I won't haunt you, but damn close.
    see! that whole stanza made me think it was the herp lmao. a shame that you got no-showed, all things have that problem around this time of year. I really enjoyed the way you ended the piece but it struck a nerve because I really hate people like that lmao. Overall pretty good read

    Re: I am who I am

    wonderfully amusing! ah, this is a piece that reflects me, in all of my narcissistic glory. i think this is something a lot of writers can relate to because it is so BIGandbright. this piece is like a bug zapper, but for poets.

    i thought the piece was quite literal, and if it wasn't, then my apologies for getting it all wrong. it had a satirical aspect to it but wasn't very clever, it was just honest and i liked that. the structure was unorganized and all over the place but the breaks were well placed. a good piece, all raw and unfiltered. i admire you for your truth and originality. did you ever go by any other names on this board? i wonder.
