Americana Adj. That Which Breaks
This is an all-American boy Flashing green eyes Laughing at me With that callous contentment Glazed lightly with sincerity He is as American as apple pie In the flat teenage way he claims me These two dimensional kisses Defy the reality of my body Pressing me flat into the bed under him And yes, Cartoons can have mass Enough to delete me Enough to prove me unreal With critical paternity Stripping me naked Bound to this caricature Of a warped American dream How do you live? He asks me quietly Loudly I have no answer I love you He says I love you too
