—CALL ME JEALOUS, CALL ME MAD
I Married a Skeleton
I married a
skeleton
because her bones
seemed to like me
too much
hollowed out
aching and
singing Billy Joel
Uptown Girl
in rich falsetto
as if it was closure or
a cannon calling out
all of my flaws
every bird that
shot of the trees
high-fived me
a feather-tipped goodbye
it was kind of them
and the one best thing
I did with my life
