she has these huge Mickey Mouse ears

she could be from another planet
the one I bumped into when being

busy and important one morning
bustling to bludge like a rotten tornado

WHAM bodies colliding bags spewing up
the untwisting began slowly but surely

from that day onwards when first her fist
Inspector Gadget style powed forth and

yanked out my antennae YOWZERS
cried the jagged balloon in black on dotty white

we did not speak the same language
English Korean tomarto tomayto broken

unbreakable should have called the whole thing
off her head starkers she phoned home

working 4 jobs in 5 café bar joints barely
sleeping no time no need just discipline

and flourish I would write lousy poems on
serviettes she would serve me more OLÉ

chatting at cross purposes into the night
illegal and proud she made no protest when

Detention claimed her now I give her coins
so she can phone home off her head starkers

no lawyer no reason no refugee here
she grins with teeth bared dazzlingly white

one for eternal link defending to the death
crafty queue jumper hotty pants sorceress

in disguise for she begets love only LOVE
