My best friend wrote this poem as part of a rant about why people who aren't good writers shouldn't write poetry in their personal ads.

"Spaceman"

Spaceman!

Where have you gone, Spaceman?

Why have you departed so suddenly

In your little ship

From the dirty ashtray that is my soul?

Your love was fleeting

Like gossamer threads fastened carelessly

Between two single-wide trailers

In a tornado.

I shall rebuild the trailer park

Of our love!

What was once a park of single-wides

Will be transmogrified into

True community of double-wides.

The centrally-heated mobile homes

Will be the warm wombs

That will create the placenta

That will nourish our love's return.

Nevermore!

Nevermore!

NEVERMORE!!!
