Valentine's Day: truth, truth, lie


truth, truth, lie
My first pony's name was Bunny
I once dated a man named Toad
I've been to the Louvre, and I loved it


Unicorns fly over rainbows to find a pot of gold
I don't mind the sun sometimes, but not a lot
A great winged purple dragon is my best friend
lie, truth, lie


truth, lie, truth
I've seen L7 concerts in three different states
I think only men should rule the universe
I once ordered a Butthole Surfers hat but they sent me a letter
that stated it was out of stock and I didn't want it anyway


The sky is the color of purple dust right now
I love the way I look when I see myself in the mirror
I don't believe in unicorns, purple dragons, and fairy tales
lie, lie, truth



(I love you)

In the dark


New beginnings, old endings
lingering synapses.
previous January centerfolds
current boxed music.
warm laps and cold feet
silver fingernail polish.

dying dreams, technicolored
fantasies, unvoiced longings.
empty resolutions sail on a couch
into the future: dodging
twinkling peppermint kisses
as they drop from the sky
at midnight.
