by Meghan HelmichYou never really listened to music
in the 80's which is a shame.
You were too busy changing diapers and
sleeping off migraines
to know that girls just want to have fun
or that The Boss was born in the USA.
But I do remember your zipper case
with a few cassettes of Whitney
asking, "didn't we almost have it all?"
and the Miami Sound Machine's warning
that the rhythm is going to get you.
You still go crazy when Billy
sings about white weddings. 06/07/2012 Author's Note: I'm really over this whole theme month.
