afterthoughts and ramblings

common

classical violin, not intellectual enough
motown, not enough rythym
folk hippy, not earthy enough
rock hippy, not arrogant enough
disco, not an ounce of coordination
country, can't drink enough
new wave, couldn't pull off the big hair
punk rock, not bitter enough
alternative, not unconventional enough
rockabilly, not cool enough
grunge, well ok maybe i was at times but not intentionally
blues, too depressing
jazz, not sophisticated enough
reggae, dreads don't match my shoes
rap, only when im outraged
sports, did I mention I am uncoordinated?
popularity, not snobby enough
tough, not intimidating enough
suzy homemaker, obviously not my calling
writing poetry, not enough passion
so I'm destined to be average
I suppose there are worse things
