Since when is love
so cheap?
just a one night fling
and second hand words
to a stranger
When did we put beauty
in a more-for-less aisle
of cosmetics for a
flaunt-it-if-you-got-it
world
Why can forever be finished
by a bitter document
commitment turned temporary
so many times
Who said love
is a fifty-cent poem
a locker room boast
and a feel-good chick flick

so
Cheap?
