more poetry

one day I had a bit too much coffee, and this came about:

an important structure to my being
my ass,
you support me
you seat me
you take a stand for me
more than a mere protrusion
your bouyancy might falter with time
for perkiness is only mortal
my ass stands strong
dear posterior you are always behind me
though much more than an afterthought

Snort. You just made me choke on my Starbucks black and white soy mocha.

BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO can you hear the crowded theatre of women standing up and cheering and giving you a standing ovation?
when i stop guffawing like a braying donkey i'm going to sit back down.
