Journal Poetry Day

an excerpt from Dangerous Angels by Francesca Lia Block:

“Yeah,” Duck said. “I saw it on that talk show once. These two gay guys and their best friend all slept together so no one would know for sure whose baby it was. And then they had this really cool little girl and they all raised her, and it was so cool, and when someone in the audience said, ‘What sexual preference do you hope she has?’ they all go together, they go ‘Happiness.’ Isn’t that cool?”

to me, that is poetry.
