What Kind of People?
Love and write about it
Leave the lights off
Kiss and tell
Don’t send thank-you cards
Sell their liver for cocktails
Pedicure their dogs
Send a bunch of moths to the cleaners
Reach climax during sermons
Kick old dogs at the park
Rub the cleaning lady down with olive oil
Cherish tropical cruise cuisine
Take advice from pending litigators
Empathize with the addict and the dealer
It’s so nice when you write something,
and it matures exactly
into what you envisioned.

Absolutely awesome list poem, Liz!
This reads like a Russian Roulette of behaviors, in the best way. Love!

“Send a bunch of moths to the cleaners”– my favorite line!
