UIT whining about us.<br />

Q<br />

Stop the estrogen songs.<br />

Qur curves aren't as firm<br />

as your ideal,<br />

as that dream female<br />

plastered on the brain's walls.<br />

W hat is it about<br />

ocean1c<br />

.<br />

eyes,<br />

the C cup,<br />

and flowing, tumbling,<br />

drowning blond hair?<br />

We can't be worth<br />

the twenty-million melodies<br />

burned<br />

onCD,<br />

mind,<br />

wedding video.<br />

W hat a sound track<br />

for the day of a man<br />

and his fresh catch,<br />

scales glimmering<br />

under the flash of a million smiles.<br />

When he skins her,<br />

will your song conjure up<br />

those plastic bunnies<br />

bouncing forever young?<br />

Or will he think original<br />

and depart from your<br />

verse-chorus-verse rosary?<br />

From the three chord monotony?<br />

ay he see hjs bride<br />

Mwrapped<br />

in 01idresler Psalm splendm�<br />

g lowing through hrumonies and dissonance.<br />

May he feel tnat p l ace<br />

of petite chests, chopped locks,<br />

and smile<br />

as he key changes<br />

once again.<br />

GO WITH GOLDWATER<br />
