we have crabs
by Olivia Weinkeinwe crave the company of Crabs.
watch with hesitation for Them
to wash upon our shores. you need
the attention, i need the love
and God knows they have enough of
both but yours is in hiding as they
are prone to do and mine is loving
the thrill of playing "peek-a-boo".
makes me (sometimes) rethink the
whole astrology wheel but who else
can make us feel the way a Cancer
can make us feel.
