I'm not really into poetry but I enjoyed the anecdotal part in the first half.

I suppose it makes those secret writer fics more plausible.

As does the second half of this verse.

Initiation, I won’t go there
I’ll keep that inside with pride
But holy shit
If the public knew what happened
On those long bus rides…

G-loves! That's such an I-was-a-90s-teen way to nickname oneself. Also, his poem sounds less like a poem and more like hip-hop. He and Matt Nieto should collaborate one of these days.

I suppose it makes those secret writer fics more plausible.

Seriously, Scott Gomez just became 1000x more interesting to me. I wish it was known about him back when he was playing that he spent all his traveling time writing poetry. I don't think he was a popular fic character, but even including that in the background of a fic would have been fun.

:( I don't want to know. I just want it to stop. Fucking junior.
