Useless

So i told you when i thought you were alone

How i loved you in this impossible beat poem

Of course i wrote it (most of it) especially for you

Of course i'll read it but there've been others in my shoes



So i walked egyptian canyons on my own

Strings of consciousness forget this sombre tone

And i'm in trouble having missed another find

And every ruin has a different song inside



Making wishes on a vessel lost in time

Or maybe anchored in my catalina sky

Casting overboard a useless poet's whine

I'm just a denizen of rhythm, word and rhyme



So i wandered in the canyon all alone

Why i loved you in this impossible beat poem

Of course i wrote most of it especially for you

Of course i ruined it cause there've been others in my shoes
