the house
her falling for someone,
it is usually slow, subtle, curious, delicious.
the magnet didnt suddenly move over to a love chart
proclamations were not shouted in the city square
she just is. and she enjoys the falling,
the gravity-effect on the knees, the butterflies, the damaged brain,
the sudden fondness of stalking and anonymous-phonecalling;
20thC teen style.
but she had trouble with subtleness.
she thought the force of love was so grand,
that she believed a toilet grafiti confession could do the telling,
and last page scribbles on notebook could do the loving.
silenced like a sin, hooligans riot at heart.
oh, the grief. oh, the haunting; tortured-poet style.
but then she learnt the hardcore way.
so the next time she falls; she knows she
must exploit eye contacts, must release pheromones,
must scream the love out, must act in love.
because although less is more in this department,
apparently not giving a clue is Not giving a clue
so no, she's not too cool to fall in love.
if she was a house, she's OpenForInspection.
looking for a tenant to fill the blanks
only she insists not wanting any help from RayWhite or HockingStuart
not.. just yet
