poems 2 rock your soul by Brad Pitt

in a recent parade
magazine interview
intended to promote
my new movie
moneyball
it appears that
i once again shat
(accidentally?)
all over my ex-wife
by stating in
emphatic terms
how miserable and
empty my existence
was back then
and
how wonderful
my new wife and
eclectic brood
are by
comparison

please note that
this was not intended
to be a commentary on
my ex-wife
personally
but rather a candid
assessment of how
i myself was when i
lived with her
