UFO Green (Example of Romance)

Dedicated to Jolais.

UFO Green

We sailed on a boat
of U.F.O green.
Unidentified flying object, someone told me -
well, our unidentified love was flying on the sea,
pulled out by the wind
and stretched out in a shadow of our sun. Pirate ships
could not catch us, overdosing on their emerald pills
and rum.

We spent months on our chinese spacecraft, jaded and myrtle in 
those ebony blanketed stars. Watch out! My alien subtraction, my divide,
my multiply and plus and the scientific acid and the language-filled tongue.

We swam across the sky
painted U.F.O green.
It wasn't the most beautiful colour - 
people in their ant-sized fantasy hollered 'Puke.'
and we didn't care and we didn't run scared and we acknowledged
our hallucinations in their unidentified lime; such lime that
we acknowledged our memories of tequila
and salt.

We spent months on our chinese spacecraft, jaded and myrtle in 
those ebony blanketed stars. Watch out! Please watch out, my alien subtraction, my divide,
my multiply and plus and the scientific acid and the language-filled tongue, sad now, without words to speak of the old fable that once was romance.
