ted dansion

you go on a date and keep on telling her
"I'm a bad boy."
she smiles a smile that says
your a child in a war with a red toy boat
and she as already done a piece on sign language
on dead animals

you make love while you wear leather
then she watches you fight some high school kids
"I'm a bad boy." is the only thing you say to her
and you say it often
she tells jokes about snow globes at the gallery
she works at
can you even believe that Ted Danison wasn't shot yet.
