Shibuya Poetry
Chapter 1:
Sonnets for a Kogal (it doesn't matter)
It doesn't matter what makeup she wears
Or if the school bell rings and she is late;
If I could run my fingers down her hair
And sing "Sukiyaki," that would be great,
It doesn't matter what the time is now,
Will be, would be, could be, should be, or then;
She has all the time in the world, and how
She can work her relationships with men!
It doesn't matter where she shops or plays,
Or if her dad want her to be a cop;
She has a right to have fun all her days,
And such a habit is so hard to stop.
It doesn't matter if happiness ends
Because unhappy girls never have friends.
It doesn't matter if she's in a gang
Or in the hospital and left for dead,
Because a sweet love song for her I sang
About some sweet talk outside of a bed.
It doesn't matter if her guy's a cop,
Or a muscle-bound brute of umpteen stone,
Every misfortune she knows how to stop,
If left for naught, men would be all alone.
It doesn't matter if the tears she cries
Were of joy, despair, confusion, or greed.
Her tears that flow like rivers are not lies
That deprive the human soul of its need.
It doesn't matter what destiny is
Because it can be sealed with just one kiss.
It doesn't matter if she studies hard,
Or can't find a job and winds up dirt-poor,
Because I've been through that road, and it's hard
To find a magical mystery tour.
It doesn't matter if she's coy or shy,
Or if her man isn't true to his word,
Sometimes, to salvage yourself, you must lie,
and pretend it's the truth he really heard.
It doesn't matter if she escorts men,
But it would be damaging to her heart.
So it would matter if now, there, and then
That she and her soul mate will have to part.
It doesn't matter what her name must be.
Still, there's no other true girlfriend like she.
