Alien

Alien

What am I doing here?
I don't listen to pop music.
I don't read pop lit.
I don't social network.
I don't watch "reality" shows.
I don't drive fast.
I don't play computer games.
I don't follow fashion trends.
I don't believe everyone is a poet.
I don't want to hear any unsolicited opinions.

But when I listen to Chris Connor
or hear Lombardo read Homer
or watch a Durrenmatt play
or read James Baldwin
or play with Sketch
or count my blessings

I'm one happy, lucky alien.
