twelve love words and two words of despair

(after Daphne Gottlieb
[after pablo neruda])



1.
I want to do with you
what Romeo and Juliet bravely did
to themselves.

2.
I love you every bit
as much as our lord Jesus Christ
loved haircuts.

3.
I want to give you something
that will cure your broken heart:
a bullet.




Nicholas Moore

Oh, there's some there there.

Of course, there are (at least two) poets named Nicholas Moore. One was the son of philosopher G.E. Moore and died in 1986. I'm another one.

You can read most of my stuff on my journal [info]tom_sizemore.
