One of the best storytellers I know

Never bothers to type them out.

He scrawls 'em long-hand

Onto an old notepad

And hides 'em away in mason jars

That he buries out in his backyard

Right alongside the confederate money

His family left him for an inheritance.

And he will never win a Pushcart,

Or any other best seller award,

But he doesn't give a damn,

And neither would you if you ever read

Just one of his tormented stories.

I have been lucky enough to hear a few,

And hearing them has liberated me

From false desires and idols

And the desire for long relationships.
