People ask me
why do you write poetry?

itīs simple:
because I learned my life experiences from the waste up
the cruel facts about this society
in those who tried to cross me
and the ones who tried to rip me off, manipulate and thought they could boss me
so I guess poetry for me is a way of getting back at everyone
to let them know who I am
Iīm still standing straight and they are not on
a kind of `revenge` if you like
but without abusing
harming
or offending anyone

People ask me
why alcohol? Even at a meeting or a very important date?

Itī s simple:
So that I can tolerate assholes
I otherwise couldnī t tolerate

People ask me
Why do you never watch TV?

Itī s simple:
Why should I watch actors making a fool of themselves and being just plain idiots
when I can walk into a local bar and watch idiots being just plain actors

People ask me
Why are you not involved in Politics when you have so many useful points to get across

Itīs simple:
I am not into being Political
I am built around honesty and I canīt be critical
I prefer to remain humble, funny and hospitable

People ask me
How would you save the world?

Itīs simple:
man has well and truly messed up this beautiful rock we live on
slaughtering plants and abusing animalsī trust and charcoaling the wide skies as Children we used to look upon
so I guess it is a bit late to save it...so I would just press the bright green light
on that famous nuclear button.
