Holden Caulfield was a Friend

|
Holden, my friend,
|
1 |
|
I wish we could have drank a tonic and gin.
|
2 |
|
And talked about the world at large.
|
3 |
|
We are too much alike,
|
4 |
|
we both hate phonies.
|
5 |
|
|
|
|
The man that created me hates me
|
6 |
|
and the Man that created you hates you.
|
7 |
|
The only difference is:
|
8 |
|
The Man that created you, could have saved the world.
|
9 |
|
|
|
|
Salinger, you dick.
|
10 |
|
You laid down your pen,
|
11 |
|
Just when I was about to do something with my life.
|
12 |
|
You could have saved a whole generation;
|
13 |
|
you could have saved me.
|
14 |
|
|
|
|
J.D. Salinger,
|
15 |
|
This is to you:
|
16 |
|
You ruined my life.
|
17 |
|
Thank you.
