What the hell just happened ? I'm gonna call him
He's not answering. Maybe I'll go over there.
Hey, What are you doing in here ?
I'm just sitting in here.
You're supposed to be doing another show.
why should I do another show ?
nobody cares
No one's gonna watch it anyways.
The show is funny. And people like watching it
You really think so ?
yes ! I do !
So get back up and do it ! Ok
Hey guys, I'm Clint. And this is Weekly Poetry.
today on this show I'm gonna be sharing a new original poem.
I was pretty excited when I got this little bit of inspiration
because I haven't written anything in a little while
I have to warn you though, it is a little dark
so um...
Get ready for....
DARK POETRY (whispered)
Ok, this new one is called "one minute at a time"
one minute at a time
I see you watching me
watching you
i can imagine what you think you like now
only to defy us both
one minute at a time
I watch the hair on my head turn light to grey
no time
no thinking
only the sparkle in your eye
that's what i like now
one minute at a time
I can feel the life that I still have left leaving
Hard to take a breath
can't hold my hands over my eyes because all i see is the truth
And what is now behind me
one minute at a time I try to remember what i meant to you
why i made you cry
now that i feel like you do
why do I now cry too
all of this is the same
we just didn't know it at the same time
one minute at a time
I count the drags of a cheap cigarette
coursing through my lungs, burning the bad feelings that I no longer allow to haunt
me at night
they can't find me here
I've changed my address too many times for anyone to follow
one minute at a time
i realize how much of you is in me
and how I am in you
and how we all feel the same
so why can't it all be another passing moment
make it pause, take a break
calming down
just one release
one minute at a time
Well, thanks for watching that's the end of the show. Special thanks to
Stephanie Luna
