I envy her. I'd write that she changes lovers as often as her clothes, but I've seen her hold on to clothes much longer. I envy her. She knows love straight out of a Vogue editorial. The kind where models wear only jeans and ****** each other with their polished, photoshopped beauty and ****** eyes. Then you see the same models somewhere else, seducing some other model, and wonder how their brains can keep up the oxytocin demand. I envy her. My lover and I, we're full of holes, like my father's light blue Levi's from the eighties. I don't envy her. We're full of holes, my love and I, but full of patches because a good pair of jeans are worth mending when they fit you like a glove.

The wandering willow tree Stands in a spring shower Sanctified by the tears of holy water She walks toward a church Without walls Filled with people It's ceiling the sky The sun rises on this gathering It's rays are on the willow tree The children are in the branches On her shoulder's swing the future
