The Only Thing That Can Shut Walt Up

We don’t talk about

the flags

we see in yards

and on windshields

of parked cars.

We don’t talk about

the three-legged dog

that runs

into the street,

almost getting hit.

We don’t talk about

the English paper

due tomorrow

at 9:00 in the morning.

We don’t talk about

dead celebs

or any of Walt’s obsessions.

We don’t even talk about

his brother’s return, or

his mom’s impending wedding.

In fact, we don’t talk

about anything at all,

because Walt is out of his mind

over a goddess

who is way smarter

and way older

than he is.
