No Special Characters

wanting
to title 
this 
as
.

but certain soup
rule "characters",
butt certainly not
caricatures, are not
allowed

no matter
how proud the 
poem speaks but
not ever never sexually
i can't express what i mean

to say about
your special
traits like
rolling
your

tongue and 
using your fingers 
to make sure your
bellybutton seems
to be speaking to me

oh so
weirdly
me not you
but when i remind
you of the fifteenth

of each month
and usually with
the lunar cycle that 
you ride as if a unicycle 
the only woman i know that

has what you
call your time of
"nostalgia" but i have
come to know your translator's
meaning then more of what you mean

Great fun. Interesting form. Crazy... I have nostalgia time too... I wonder if it is the same? Great stuff... Ann
