THE BIRTHDAY

                                     Solemn, like an Egyptian with a pizza,

                                    it notices the passing of a year

                                    that went as quick as an internet romance

                                    no matter the marked achievement of good days.

                                                             A girl with an apartment has ideas.

                                     No matter the marked achievement of good days

                                    folk congregate entirely for the present

                                    occasion to party for the one among us

                                    who has a whole day not just fifteen minutes.

                                                             A girl with an apartment has ideas.

                                     Who has a whole day not just fifteen minutes

                                    is drunk, or breathes as tranquil as a saint.

                                    More than crockery moved by a poltergeist,

                                    a placement in the future seems assured.

                                                             A girl with an apartment has ideas.
