Where Commas Are Needed
you did not
Cupid shoot
an arrow and
as if planned
hit the bull's
eye of my
heart
you didn't use
curare or any
poisonous
frog's blood
to drug or
make me
fall
in love
but now
my heart
burns with
an ache that
no remedy can
take you away or
ease relief
of acid
not a
flash
back
but like
anti acid
in an opposite
world where
Antacid Man
is a super
hero that
can
do
everything
i wouldn't
do such as
moving and
removing
twisting
and
turning that
which wasn't
shot in his
heart but
his foot
instead
puncturing
him to
mistakingly
not punctuate
"What's this thing
called
love?"
but
"What's this
thing called love?"
never knowing
what i know
in my
opposite
universe
