I Know

If you can be my girlfriend
then I’m your boyfriend and I know
what you like to do
on a walk to Midway Beach,

I get it that you won’t use
the outhouse at John’s Landing,
I know your order
at Westport’s Thai restaurant,

and I know your fragrance.
If you can be my girlfriend
then you know what I like
for lunch, the curve of my hand,

my claim that time is an illusion,
what I’ll say to the waitress
at Westport’s Thai restaurant,
you understand what the allegations are

and it’s a big misunderstanding
you know I can explain.
