He
nearly died today
because his 30 second-old love
couldn't stay,
The ruby red
bird winged
Merman of His Dream.
His heart attacked
his very own watered lungs,
The tears
which stopped his heart
like a sneeze.
He prayed, "Please."
The hospital bed Lord didn't reply, and
He felt the plump nurses were
telling him
lies.
Return of the sad, lonely, strange Frenchman of my daydreams.
