And I Didn'T See Her Coming
she was about thirty,Thai, with long shiny black hair
and a body to die for: and I built her mother a house
and we walked together in the rice fields but it wasn't
enough for her and she asked me to buy a four wheel
Toyota to "take the family around"
and I thought a while about my shrinking balance
and growing libido,and a friend said, "cut your losses",
so I finished it, and I was free and solvent and the Toyota
four wheel became her dream again
(but I must have been crazy)
