Love Affair
There was a love affair in this building.
The kind of love affair
Which every respectable building must keep as a legend,
Slowly festering through an innocent "by the way,"
Or "have you heard".
He was perfect except for the fact that he was an engineer,
And mothers prefer doctors
And lawyers.
Yet despite this imperfection,
He was clean-looking and respectable-looking.
And you'll never find a mother
Who doesn't appreciate a natural man,
So he grew healthy aloe vera plants by the window,
Healthy teeth in his mouth,
Healthy hair on his head.
He grew healthy wavy brown hair on his head:
The kind, the kind that babies always go for
With sticky little fingers.
