The Perfect Poem

Ten over ten,
One hundred percent.
Ninety degree,
One-eighty degrees,
And three-sixty degrees.

My mother,
and my father.
Their love.

My ex-lover,
My ex-lover’s spaniel.

Hershey’s chocolate,
2% milk.
A spoon to stir.

Ten over ten,
One hundred percent.
My ex-lover,
A spoon to stir.
