Civil War

Shake hands
And blow each other's guts out

Caveat Emptor

You knew what I was after
It was there in black and white
In Arial, I'd typed
My longings and desires

How did I mislead you
I was open, raw, facadeless
Told the truth, regardless
And watched you walk away

Acting on impulse

"If a man you've never met before suddenly gives you flowers..."
He's probably a stalker

Swoon

Feverish anticipation
Eyes meet
A smile
A look
A sigh
Dentist says
"Now open wide..."

Now I know you don't want me
I've regained my clarity
and your faults that I rose-tinted
Revealed for all to see
