Oh, He's So Clever Poem by matt fromm

I told the ol' boy
I had no money
Nothing,
Nada,
Niente.
A fair warning
On my part.
He said
'Dude
Don't worry'
I went
I waited
And I got
bored.
My friend,
Winning at pool.

But that was
Nothing.

A lot of
Stunning, beautiful
women
The crem de la casting couch.

But that was
Nothing.

Me, Fromm,
Sitting there
Absorbing
I guess

But I was
Nothing.

How could I
become
Something?
Screw the rest of them!
What about me?
No money?
Not quite.
7 bucks to be exact!
What,
blow it on
1 drink at
This place?
I think not
Tic-Toc
Tic-Toc
I've got it! ! !
The 7-11
On
The
corner

I said
'be right back'
'cool'
or something
Like that he said
I went in
Requested a
Pint of Diamond Vodka
To go along
With my
12 oz.
bottle of cranberry
It came out to $6.87.
Hot damn,
What a smart shopper.
Now, where?
Hmmmmm.
Well, (I thought)
there's always the
Ihop across
the street.
And,
They have a bathroom.

I'm not
Ashamed
Of what I did
I feel empowered.
Who else
would have the guts
To stand in front
Of a large
Bathroom mirror
With the door
Locked
And look your self
In the eye
As you
Mix as much
Diamond Vodka
as you can
Into the cranberry
Juice
And
Drink it
As fast
As you can
So you don't
arouse suspicion?
Not many, thats who.
