I was going through some very old notebooks and found this series of comic poems I wrote for Romina (from Argentina):
1.
Romina, fragrance like burnt cedar
I am repelled by my wild affection for you.
2.
Romina, you are foreign. I must hug you
and feel
before I am sure of anything
3.
Romina, a love poem for you would not be superflous--
a great poem would not be enough--
any poem at all for you would not be within my ability
for my words are weaker than my confidence (like a pansy)
4.
Donuts, Donuts, Donuts,
Romina, Romina, Romina!
