stork daddy raised on video games,
where the hero, with infinite continues,
can retrieve the girl.
and 80s music,
with contained resounding beats
and a clean stylized end,
it all seemed not only plausible,
but inevitable,
that we'd hold hands at the end,
or dance slow,
like the couple who holds a little
left over in their hands
each day as work exhausts them
for each other.
it seemed inevitable like
death, but the other side of that,
as if this happiness were our birthright.
