Slam Poem

I'm a Buddhist existentialist. 
I'm a democratic socialist. 
I'm a Seinfeldian comedy fan.
I'm a Floridian by birth.
I'm a New Yorker at heart.
I'm a funny philosophical poet.
I'm a patient punk rocker per fatherhood.
I'm a busy cancer patient.
I'm an introspective extrovert.
I'm a late anxious bastard without saints,
I'm a well-read idiot. 
I'm late to my own generation. 
I'm never as good as I want to be. 
I'm always with hope.
