Happy Valentines Day!

I've been going steady with my lover MaryJane for about 7 years and I still can't believe how happy she makes me, how creative, how alive. I'm in love I'm in love and I don't care who knows it! Today is a day for lovers, and as a romantic i'd like to pay tribute to my lover, my muse, with a [parody] sonnet. Rick James sings it well, "I'm in love with Mary Jane, She's my main thang. She makes me feel alright, she makes my heart sing." I love my girl, but, also, she's Sexy As F*ck.

Reinvented Landscape

To the neglected flower in nature—

The sight of her specimen makes me drunk

With desire, for her bud is so pure.

She cloths in crystals, so lavishly funk,

Still hiding her best gems keeping demure.

Better than a rose, she smells like a skunk!

A sticky touch- I cannot fight her lure.

Other grass may be greener, but she’s a red-haired punk!

To my love, my lust, my dear Mary Jane,

I shall forever protect your esteem.

You have burned your way into my brain,

Given unto me my wildest dream.

Slow this rapid world, discern all I see;

Addiction has set me free.
