That Guy

.
I walk to the store
I hate it
not the store
the walk
I hate it
why is it so close?
not that I want a longer walk
'cause I don't
but, a block and a half drive
would make me
"eccentric"
I hate that too!

About This Poem

Last Few Words: In a comment here, I called a poem "eccentrically cool minamalism". I liked that description (though not as much as the poem referred to) and thought I'd start a new genre ( or just a re-named one) for my own amusement...so here goes!

Review Request Intensity: I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back

brevity. I bet you would be good at Haiku. I am a bit puzzled at the title, but it drew me in. Ohhhhh.... now I get it! "That Guy!" being the eccentric! Silly me, and I pride myself at being a good one with that kind of stuff !
Nice work! ~ Gee
