Love Story at Marvin Gardens
I love watching the gentle tresses of her hair
hang over the squares on the monopoly board
She has just purchased a house at Marvin Gardens
not the most exciting property, true
but certainly a step up from my apartment on Baltic.
When I turn the block and tap on the window to say
I owe you rent and I love what you've done with these flowers
she says "save it
join me for this roast, I'm celebrating, I just won
second prize in a beauty contest."
Even though she's judged secondarily beautiful and
as we eat the roast no one is winning
it seems that this moment is the elusive prize.
And that's how I think of your hair and our love right now
waving over the rules and the paper money:
a thing that doesn't need to be owned, to be ours.

I completely agree with the awesomeness that is David Tennant as The Doctor. He is an amazing actor!
