Go for It

Not as smart
Not as pretty
Not as thin
Not as witty
Not as chic
or erudite
Not as sharp
or Aphrodite
Not as published
Not as rich
Not as sexy
as that bitch
who has it all.

Apparently
she has it all
except for you.

Pursue this
goddess if she's
what you think
you want or even
if she's who you
want to think about.

But if instead
you just want love,
know this:
In all the universe,
you are the hand,
and I, alone,
the glove that
is a perfect fit.
