i don't think i can
become the buddha drinking my rum
i don't think i can
believe the dogma my cat purrs
i don't think i can
appologize for the pope
i don' t think i can
dry my lashes under water
i don't think i can
ever say everything is concrete
i don't think i can
swim when bound with duct tape
i don't think i can
write the suicide note for elvis
i don't think i can
replace my knee with her replacement
i don't think i can
believe the truths of the religions
i don't think i can
not become twenty four again
i don't think i can
remember nineteen sixty seven
i don't think i can
forget seeing janis at the pop machine
i don't think i can
experience becoming invalid
i don't think i can
not believe the dogma that the dog barked
i don't think i can
see the classic greek dog that didnt bark
i don't think i can
ever bark again with this sore throat
i don't think i can
write more
my head is a bowl of mush
i am that budhha
and need to just beeeeeeeeeeee

Great list. I especially like the line on "the dogma my cat purrs," and how you begin and end with the Buddha.

I don't think I can apologize for the pope, either...
Love this poem.
How about: kiss your elbow? :-)
fun idea!
I don't think I can
drink another can of beer
I don't think I can
but I'll have a sip of rum
The idtic works well!
Cute one :)
This poem is a great mix of the zany and one or two more serious 'I don't think I can's.
