even though you only intended to steal that candle i liked once

even though we only half-assedly tried to make a mini-snowman once

even though you only said you wanted to see me again once

even though we wont do encores

i might not be able to forget you completely

fruits rouges

B

meet the girl

she’s so beautiful

she’s the most beautiful

and she likes what you like mostly

start giving in to love

let her put a spell on you

kiss the girl in her car on the third date

feel sad about getting off the car

dance alone in your appartement

get to know each others

where have you been all my life

P

don’t notice how she cries every morning

it’s probably just

hormones

or bad memories

or something

pretend it never happened

plus lips that taste of tears

are the best for kissing

they say

forget when she hates you

forget when she screams 

oh please just forget it

forgive anything

you don’t want to lose her now, do you

reassure her

it’s all in your head

you say

D

start losing her

break up with her

think about the matching tee shirts

you two bought together not so long ago

(this has another ending

full of innocent children)

late christmas wish list

i want to have ‘de l’esprit’

[wit]

[mental sharpness and inventiveness]

i want to be all spiritual

almost holy

here’s a december story

[that you might have not heard before]

somebody rang at my door and asked if i were italian

outside in the street there was a safari-ish looking truck

the type they use to carry around bottles of mineral water during races like the Paris – Dakar

there was also a shovel on top of the truck

and i really think the man was a burglar or a gravedigger

planning to bury me

[that’s allowed but you would have to pay a small fee]
