Little Big Things

when you love a man
you always
keep
his favorite whiskey
in the cabinet
even if
he drinks too much
that’s what
love's about
if he has
a bad temper
he probably has
a cute butt
a nice smile or
a great sense
of humor
love is just
a mutual desire
to commit
fault
be damned
nobody's perfect
or even close
truth
be told
most men
are not worth
a fuck
but that’s
not the point
maybe the truth is
they’re boys
and they need us
sometimes
and we
need them
like grass
needs rain
but not too much
you don’t want
a flood
messing up
everything
again
