TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH

a poem for my lover

From the moment we met, I was enamored by you.

You were a mere mortal, in some trouble for being you.

.

We became entangled, you and I, and it was my fault.

Do you remember I asked, and you said, "No, not at all."

.

I proceeded to confront you, proposition you, almost beg you.

You finally said, "OK, G. Have your way with me. I like you."

.

We flew to the moon and every planet and even the stars and sun.

But when you brought other females in, it instantly stopped being fun.
