Part I
The nobility, the fluorescent buzz,
The little hand in the third quadrant
The pink pasteurized pair,
They melt just like
The quiet couple in the corner
Their hearts to wear.
Gus came to Theresa with crimson eyes
And Theresa came with curried corn chips
"The meds again?" Theresa replied.
"The somewhattaphine is sugary sour," Gus said,
"My dad can't sleep with the guns in his head,
his 'little private' needs to stay under the bed
to weather the fire."
"I've had MPs come, the therapy's done,
my family is too, and all I have is you."
Theresa calms him down,
The sunlight dims,
She says, "I have you, too.
We are all we ever need.
Just come and hold on to me."
The comfort came the epiphany
They both thought to get away from here
Gus made known his act of dissension,
"We can get married in Vegas,
we'll find a beautiful place,
two things are, should you accept,
is to stay with me,
and our nuptials never to be advertised."
She said surely, "Okay."
