A lot of people fear me
because of how easily intimidated
they are. But when pressed
and pressed hard,
they admit:
the truth of it is,
I'm such a thoroughly
admirable and stainless
human being.
They just didn't want
to admit it at first
because it seemed wrong
to them some how,
that one guy
could have it all: brains,
minds, hearts, hands, STAVES,
CUPS AND SWORDS! It's like
I'm a walking Deck of Fortune,
sometimes, like Rick Deckard
at the start of Blade Runner, speaking
his easy patois to the noodle guy, everybody
after him 'cause he's always on the CASE - next
thing you know,
some huge origami gaffe is misconstrued
as a unicorn dream hint, and people start
saying the guy's a robot. But fuck that
no, he's not. he's
ALL MAN.
And I know what that's like,
as people will readily concede
when pressed.
