All Apologies

Maybe nearly there to discover 
Which faith I lose first 

a) my life not worth the swing of the line 

b) my poem doesn't deserve  all

The people I cram in 
To choke it

An old poet came in with a handful of pomade. 
Want a medal for that? 

May I have nothing between the air 
And my scalp 

If I can't always shave my hair 
(Can't have my boy averse to the barber) 

May they always dance 
A populace 

Of skinny wind vanes 
I proceed where I have to 

Song meets me every step 
Never going my way
