how to date a poet long distance

1) call her 5 times/day just to say you're thinking about her.
2) set up a "date" where you both rent the same movie and then watch it together while eating pop corn.
3) sing a love song on her answering machine.
4) cook her favorite meal and eat it while talking to her on the phone.
5) ask her what she's wearing every time you talk.
6) write her letters as well as emails. decorate the letters with fancy stamps, scent them, draw hearts all over the place.
7) send her presents.
8) let her know in detail what you would like to do the next time you see her.
9) talk about your feelings. get open in your heart.
10) ask her difficult questions about herself that she has to think about.
11) ask her to read you her favorite poems.
12) read her yours.
13) think of something fun to argue about, start a lovers quarrel and then make up...all by phone.
14) send her a plane ticket, a love poem, and a really beautiful pair of panties to wear on the flight.
15) use your imagination...

    I'll be grown soon. I'm not one to make friends after a mere acquaintance. But I have fallen in love with your words. I have found myself longing to know you. So, if you ever come back to Detroit Deneshea will be at any venue that you are. keep it real.
