A list poem I made of things that I feel make me, "me".
Cow shit and frost,
Wood smoke and spice.
Cologne and starch,
Vanilla and public schools.
Soap and cotton,
Sweat and coffee.
Wet dog and cut grass,
Hot, soaked cement.
Sea salt and sand,
Coconut scented lotion.
Rum in a Sonic Cup,
Cigarette down to its butt.
Horse piss and hay,
Gunpowder and beer.
These things don't match,
Sure as hell don't rhyme;
But that's ok,
They're all mine.
