About When I Gave A Damn   (Bussokusekika)

I’ve  nothing to prove
To nobody nor no one
I am the greatest
Poet who has ever been
Or is it just me thinking
About when I gave a damn

About this poem

If/when a poem comes along which might compare with Psycho Babble Scribble Squabble And Scrabble…I in my GOAT thinking will relinquish my silly thoughts…I don’t know why it seems as IF somebody has sabotaged said 1and2 versions of said poem to alter them…I know I’ve had to go back and fix them on various occasions…Oh well thus is life…I believe that IF I had never revealed the rhyme scheme I had used in said poem…It may could have gone many many years without it ever being discovered or revealed…So much for Fern Hill…
