A marriage proposal from a man who might be mad

Will you marry me?
Here, now
Under this dead tree
While Winter's breath
freezes this erect
passion?

Yes, I know better
I've studied my flash cards
taken those tests and barely
passed
and I am well aware
this is not logically
sound, but to hell with
logistics
to hell with rationalizing
butterflies as they tear
at my intestines

I've taken a few classes
at the school of
Here and Now
passed with a 4.0 GPA
and you are here
with I
and I am now
an idiot for you

So will you marry me?
Leaving second guess
to the noose
while the wolves
are still howling at
the moon?
