[L.E. Leone's intrepid Dating Poems series continues!]
KRYSTIAN
The night
I almost broke
your arm coming
and you said after
catching our breath I
was so sexy? . . .
Did you mean it?
Because
you know yours
wouldn’t have been
the first
arm that I broke
Truly,
MORGAN
So, OK, so you couldn’t make it
to my reading because you had a date
with your other lover, but your heart
will be with me? [look up from podium &
around the room for a while]
I don’t see it, I’m happy
to say. Dismemberment
unnerves me.
