All Comments on 'I want to be'

Excellent & original poem. A unique presentation, unlike so many cookie cutter pieces that all start to sound alike. Sounds like a middle management level frustrated pencil pusher with dreams of another blissful life. But about Camille .. .. those piercing eyes that miss nothing; oh well, everyone their own fantasy. But those penciled in day planner notations .. .. was indiscretions deliberately spelled that way to reflect upon and suggest our hero's shortcomings?<br>

A breath of fresh air with which to start today's readings.

Though my schedule is not so monotonously hectic as the hero's, I've more than once wished to sweep floors or stock shelves, late at night when everyone is gone.

This poem was mentioned in Saturday's New Poems Reviews.

It's all there isn't it? Life how we are forced to live it by circumstances and the need, the longing to escape to a simpler way of life ... but is simpler any better?

I'm not so sure about breathing the fresh air, what with the "urinepantsedshitpoet" and all. But it is a great poem to enjoy with "with my TV and my beer."
