Click herefather keyboard,
please hear my confession
I didn't spend enough time with my grandma
and too much with her T.V. ;
I brought a knife to grade school
though I never meant to pull it ;
I didn't return the letters of my first lover ;
I drank too much starting in college ;
I rarely ever bussed my table ;
I slept with many strange women
who seemed to vanish like drug highs ;
I was vengeful and ambitious ;
When the hard times came
I didn't often brush my teeth ;
I glorified drugs in my poems ;
I always had to do things my own way
like worshipping philosophy
instead of a God
and confessing to a keyboard
and not a priest
Many poets find themselves confessing in each and every poem. My criticism would be, you're confessing everything but your actual sins.
-WilliamButlerYeats
it is in the nature of the confessional, when reciting one's sins to the priest, to list them starting with 'I'...
i like the take on, the confessing through the keyboard. does it bring absolution, or doesn't the narrator care for that?
what penance, what scourge? the laying open of a soul to scorn of the e-world?
at its most direct? not a bad save at the end. A 5, barely, suffers from too little more thought, too much I mush.
