love will haunt you
love will haunt you
like a beautifully blond ghost
driving a convertible graveyard
past the carwash of how they’ve left you
over the bridge of what it used to feel like
to fall asleep next to them
thru the woods of the poor
mismatched miserable bastard
you’re dating now
(from my book Love Does Stuff, Amber Lodge Press)
(this book is so out of print I don’t even have a copy of it anymore, but I found the manuscript tonight after a few years of not finding it, so I’ll probably be posting chunks of it on this website thingy here tonight. And maybe tomorrow. And maybe even the day after that…..)
