Poem: Modern Love Book: Alien vs Predator (Penguin) Poet: Micheal Robbins por Gerardo Montoya --------------- My neighbor's whales keep me up at night. They may not mean to, but they do. I turn Shark Week, plan a killing spree. I'm all stocked up on Theraflu I love the word chum. By Kinko's early light, the Korean children say swim, swam, sum. I'm tangled in the jasmine of your mind. I'm trying to heat the whole neighborhood. Whoever has no house now, tough titty. Whoever is alone will not hook up. I already told you I think you're pretty. Your refutation precedes you. I pawn my iron lung. Whose whales these are I'll never know. They lawyer up. I'm lying low.
