You’re not getting it.
You’re listening to my poetry wrong.
You’re not clapping loud enough
to have heard it right.
You get the references to ALF, right?
That’s important for complete appreciation.

And the jokes about pubic weeds.
Did you hear all the words?
Did you graduate high school?
If you don’t have the proper education
you’re probably not going to understand everything.

Notice the alliteration
and how the titles have nothing directly
to do with the poem,
but if you tilt your head and squint
you can see what the titles resemble.
I can show you how to squint
if you want.

And really
that series
is not half a sexist as it sounds.

Look
if you’re not going to pay attention
the right way
of course you’re not going to yield
all the rewards my words can offer.
If it’s not that important to you
to get it
then I guess we can just agree
to disagree.
