Never
mind the silence.
He’s a genius, a
restless soul who still
astonishes the (m)asses
with significant ar(t)dent

Absinthe
makes the heart
grow fonder,

more solidly there
(with dark brown hair.)
Never mind

-(m)utation of his
muse, the explosion
of surrealism in his goatee.
His conscience
has been scientifically
grifted.
Caution when opening
the universe, y’all.

I can’t believe I’ve never thought of this:
“Absinthe
makes the heart
grow fo(u)nder” … You make me giddy, girl. (Ooh, “giddy girl” wants to be a poem title.)
Now I’m thinking of this.
“Absinthe…” that was just inspired! Loved.
