My Only Valentine’s Day Poem
Schizophrenia in G minor
when i awoke yesterday
and found you beside me
atlas’ shoulders seemed to settle
as sweet sweat matted hair
hugged your face
in a vertical halo
the classical reprints
adorning our walls
sighed in jealousy
and i was in love
today
you’re a fat
rat nasty cow
and i wish
you would die
happy valentine’s day
