Maybe I’m wrong
But in my experience
Nobody wants
To be an acquired taste
Not to everyone
All the time
Cause I think we all
Want to be known and loved
By an early adopter
By someone who liked you
Got you
Appreciated you
Wanted you
Desired you
Saw your something special
And pounced headlong
Into early fandom
And acceptance
Someone who got it
Who really really liked you
Instantly and in a snap
It makes me sad
That there are people out there
Who will always be kept
At an arm’s length
Acquired tastes
Who are appreciated in time
But never in the moment
I relate to these people
Perhaps only appreciated
From a distance
After some time
Or once their gone
