Have you seen him? Slam style

entry picture

the deluded astronaut, the green eyed friend, the blagger,

the salesman, the red faced drunk in Wetherspoons,

layman preacher, swinger, singer of  slurred songs, word napper,

the all round general bullshitter,the fredian tongue slipper,

wideboy conversation tricker, the Chav in the cap,

blood sucking hippie lost on a map , the affluent liar,

he sometimes plays acoustic guitar in town or city

somewhere.

I like this one. You do need to read it with the title as I saw this not as one person but many people that get up and speak at a slam event.

It's a game. Which label does this "performer" fit?

I'm chuckling.

This still doesn't sit right with me!
But i just can't put my finger on what is wrong about it.
I'm sorry. I'm taking up valuable space with all these comments, leaving little room for anyone else to breathe. Very unlike me! I prefer to breathe life back in to people.

p.s. After my first comment, i wanted to erase my name but i couldn't get back in to actually do it. So i added this p.s. for good measure.

Sounds like a horrible person. I wonder why he does that?
Surely there's a much better and nicer man below the surface. Maybe he just needs someone to show they care, to bring out the best in him.
I'd like to think so anyway.

Your in-put was rockin' though. That's for sure.
Not sure "rockin' was the right word to use but there you go. Just my opinion, for what it's worth. Janet.
