Girls with glasses are cute
but that's only what I think
and she doesn't agree
so she's wearing contact lens
and she's losing them more
often than not
and the house becomes
a minefield
and we have the thread
lightly
it's just a small apartment
it shouldn't be that hard
to find them or the
one that got lost
when only one got lost
she would use the other
and cover her other
eye and look around
and point things and tell
me to turn them over so
she could take a better look
and I would sometimes
say "I told you"
but I no longer do it
I look under the cover
and the pillows
and the sheets
and the carpet
in shoes, under them
pockets, corners, folds
sink, toilet, tub
one day
she covers her free eye
and uses the other one
to look at her phone
"Really now?" I say
on my knees, searching
in shoes
she shows me her phone
and what I see is a bottle of
perfume
"Been wanting to get this
for a while now," she says.
"After this I'm seriously gonna."
I take a better look at the thing
and by gods
no
it's not a perfume bottle
not in that sense anyway
its description says
that you spray the things
you lose often with it
and your pet dog, being addicted
to the smell, will find them
for you
I drop the shoe down at my feet
and sit back and laugh
for about a full minute
When I'm done she's out
of the room
And I shout after her
"I don't believe in buying dogs,
I told you."
I don't believe in buying dogs
You either adopt them
or don't have them
but please, whatever you do,
don't ever spray stuff on the
stuff that comes in contact with
your eyes
okay?
