Blood and Guts: Helena Lazaro
I've got a Chainsaw Mouth
March 28, 2006 11:23 AM

Dinner with Pinnocchio

His eyes glossy
look away after too long
His fingers deliberately
open and close
around the stem of a wineglass
His mouth stiffly
moves to tell me
he's never been in love

I wonder
if at night
he wishes
(starlight starbright)
to be a real boy
or if he likes
his heart wooden

After all
you can fumigate
termites
but love
never dies


More dudes suck, love and relationships, poetry
