love story not ready for by Bradd HowardOh, the taboo tango
of midgets and serial killers bouncing on the trampoline-like cloud surface
a love story that people are not ready for.
The boogey man and the angel showing up in the same place
the long road trip of life coming to the same conclusion
Maybe that's what it was supposed to be about all along
a quick bounce with someone who scares you. 11/17/2008 Author's Note: poetry challenge: use the words taboo, trampoline, road trip, serial killer, boogey man, love story and midget in a poem with the theme Life After Death.
