NO IDEA

She asks, “Where do you get your ideas?”
And I told her, “From your eyes, my love
and their deep and endless blue
going further than I’d have thought possible.

“From you hair
long, lush,
luxurious locks
intrinsically linked to one another and to my heart-strings

“From your breasts
fresh and bouncy
like a cherry red rubber ball
- or two.
“In short, my sweet, from you.”

And, she looked at me funny
and she looked at me strange
because, of course
she HADN’T asked where I got my ideas, but rather,
to “Pass the ketchup.”
And to that I gave no reply.
