Never really one
for popularity contests
Yet somehow
popularity found me.
Intangible leadership
skills perhaps,
overrated influence
more likely.
The first time I had sex
I was an amateur at best.
the first re-telling to my friends
I was Ron Jeremy in 1975.
Sometimes I wonder
if i build myself up
or myself builds me.
One thing is for certain:
talk,
talk,
talk,
useless
and boring.
Over inflated ego's tend to burst all at once,
and Snuffaluffagus was always cooler than
Big Bird.
As a child I related to him,
along with Daffey Duck,
and Gonzo,
Now you tell me who has an ego.
