FOR THE GUY DRESSED LIKE FIDEL CASTRO AT SAN DIEGO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT BY MELANIE BROWNE 34THPARALLEL MAGAZINE ISSUE 11

If I wasn’t married

I would take you

to a hotel

and order us both

a plate of

huevos habaneros

Probably even

get you drunk

to find out if you wear

your little green hat

when you go

to bed with women

much taller than yourself

It would be the time

to relieve yourself

of any burdens

you carry around,

to tell me that

you’re boycotting McDonald’s,

and why

everything you

own is in

a green backpack

The sun would be rising

warmer

in the sky

I would

barely have

time

to get you

back to

the airport

to catch the next

flight
