a heart for rent.


The billboards said it all.

He paid the price,

He took it home.


Poor heart

by the gaze 

of this charming lad.


Poor heart 

was already tossed

and broken.

was going 

to die.


Lucky man knew

that he was in for a treat.


Lucky man knew

was better than a woman.

that poor heart

was a soul.


Lucky man 

couldn't have his fun

with poor heart.


Poor heart 

was abandoned.


But poor heart

was smart.


Poor heart 

healed from poor trauma.


Poor heart 

was poor,

but the heart 

was alive. 


Heart 

wasn't alone.


Heart 

was loved

by the poverty

of its sadness. 

Poor heart
