Your Value Has Dropped

I value you none now

In my world

__you don't belong

I don't know

__what I was doing in yours

But I think leaving you alone

__is what you wanted anyways

So "ta ta, forever"

I'll never come back into your world

Unless you invite me

Which would be once a year, right?

Yeah, I see how it is

Life in this world

__has turned into shit

But don't feel bad

I still love your ass

But only literally

And your tits too

Your pussy, I've never even met

So I can't say the same for it

Nor your areolas

I've never seen any of you naked before

And I never will

Obviously you're not for sale

So my Higher Power

__could not buy you for me

Which is cool

I get it

I'm better off with an escort

Somebody I don't have to be successful for

Or what not

"You're the boss"

And that's what I don't like about you

My heart will no longer burn for you

No matter how hot you look

Swivel in your swivel-chair

Reading a pre-amble

And driving Mr. Pee Pee crazy

A bowl of petunias

Knows I can't have you

So I know it must be obvious

That "you don't give a fuck"

Yet I'm not blaming you

I never gave you a reason to give a fuck

So that's my fault

I'll continue to eat potato chips and weep

Crying tears of laughter

Because not having you

Is SO funny

You know, DL - that's really good. I like the things you're expressing here and the way you do it. It's not too vulgar (at least not by your standards) and there's depth to your feelings and the situation. There's loss with realization. A woman in authority - do you find that sexy? Guys say they do until they get put in the corner. Then, she's a bitch.

Actually, no. I do NOT like women in authority. That's what I have to keep telling Puppet, when he falls in love with her ass and tiddies, like, over, and over again! Let me make myself clear. (me, meaning "Dun"). Puppet loves Amanda. Not me! She is too gangster for me. I know that. But Puppet doesn't seem to give a shit, 'cause he just wants to fuck her so bad. Puppet is horny. I am paranoid. I notice shit like this in women, and he just notices their ass, and tiddies. That's why Puppet writes so much about her. But I wrote this one. Out of anger of how in charge she is. So to answer your question, "no. I do not like a woman in charge. But Puppet overlooks it."
