they call to say

we got married
what?
we got married!
as if i were deaf and hadn't actually heard it the first time
so we had over the phone drinks to celebrate the newly bound couple
and i read new poetry that was written out of context about something that passes for love
they cried and said they love me
i never ever thought i'd get married
it's what we've always said
my only regret is that you weren't there with me -- standing up by my side
love is crazy
and i don't for one minute understand it
maybe that's the best part
i don't mind at all
