Missed Connections by Brett!

Don't get heartbroken. The wonderful Brett Fletcher Lauer has been commissioning Craigslist Missed Connections from a wild delicious lotta poets, publishing them, and then publishing the replies at Ships That Pass.

You can read mine here:

Crazy Toxic Miss You! / w4m / 39 Queens (JFK)

Where are you going, ponyboyfriend? Some velvet panda snow globe forever island? You’re eating mango jelly! You’re drinking water from a waterfall so PERFECT that anyone standing under it becomes a virgin again! Coating yourself in shea butter! If I had one of those tiny plastic half-knives they give you in the lid of the cream cheese container, or an itsy little ice cream sampler scoop, I’d scrape a rippling layer of shea-and-sweat off your back while you’re napping and spread it on my HEART OF HEARTS!
