you can replace my broken windshield wiper you can balance the checkbook you can fix the computer you can lose a hundred pounds by allowing yourself fifteen hundred calories a day you can put on a cowboy hat and Levis and boots polished to a shine and make me giggle like a six year old raised on rodeos and Coca-Cola with peanuts and you can teach me about Mahler and the symbolism of "Barton Fink" and you can make me think I'm the only woman you will ever crave but I can write screenplays no one will ever read and send e-mail after e-mail to ghosts afraid to haunt my graveyard and I can run away like the Amarillo wind and never look back and I can put raw truth on a greasy plate and not give a fuck who nibbles and I can divorce every person I've ever known and make new friends and find a surrogate family in Acuna (across from Del Rio) and together we can make a mortgage and babies or choose to detour, instead and be sufficient to each other in our double size bed. |
