“I am a special magical American bitch. I am only half brutal.
I will only steal half your sandwich and only if it is mayo free.
I will only sue you for half your toys.
You can have the Fisher Price barn that goes MOO.
You can have the silo, too, because the silence
of that structure scares me, reminds me
of American Gothic and Saturday nights in Iowa
with nothing to look forward to
but the smell of popcorn butter and the sound of penis slap.
I will only give you half the love you deserve.
The other half is saved for the ghost of Jackson Pollock
because as pretentious as it may sound
that is one ghost in a host of hundreds
that keeps me
somewhat pure.”
