Alice Fulton Always Makes Me Feel Bad

I am listening to this reading by the poet Alice Fulton
      and in doing so I learnt a lot about me.
I am not a very sensitive person.
There's nothing deep inside me trying
      to get out, stay hidden or explain itself.
I suppose all I think about is me
      and the sounds I make, excuse me please.
I am devoid of animal rights thoughts
      or dirty planet fears.
I am pretty much a guy
      with a nice exterior who talks a lot.
I can't imagine anyone without a happiness
      other than on the surface.
I live on the surface of my life
      like any other parasitic creature.
I am glad I listened to Alice Fulton
read her poems but I think I am the guy
sitting there in the room completely
enamored by his own sweat.
