- Hi, I'm calling to tell you that: I wrote down everything you ever said to me (in the literal sense, standing stretched against my own uncultured and violently ****** vocabulary) - And am regurgitating it back to innocent passerby - my sincerest apologies to those poor victims of circumstance, suspended in the projectile ***** of my dysfunctional disdain (In a slew of worm guts and warm bodies, mama-bird to baby-bird saying "please don't leave the nest" - it's too hot for blankets anyways) My original letter to you was written on the backside of an airplane **** bag, where I detailed my favorite scenes from a movie we subconsciously made entitled "Baby's First Time", while blissfully unaware of my stern faced in-flight companion. My first draft, though, was a series of half-hearted winks and very, very drunk texts, beginning with:           SEXT: I offer my services as sacrificial ****** (and followed a whopping six months later by)           SEXT: I am still young enough to accuse you of statutory **** (The art of seduction seems to be less of an art and more of a particular science) You are: - My own personal Edgar Allan Poe, just blonder and younger, with a bigger gut and a bigger ego and (alas!) a complete lack of interest in your sweet Annabel (but I could change my name) - And oddly enough, I'm the one writing the poems here (The whole world's a stage, with me just watching your sad indie boy band from the nosebleed seats)
