"The Man Who Sold the World" by Meghan HelmichYou're always making deals.
You tie your transactions
in brown paper bags.
You put your finger in the middle
when I knot the string.
You leave your shoes
in front of the door
and push the hair out of my eyes.
You laugh when I kiss you. 10/16/2011 Author's Note: Revised.
Title from David Bowie.
