When a man says I love you

You can’t be sure the Chameleon is Black, Green or Brown

Neither can you tell what two directions its bulgy arc eyes are fixed on

When a man says I love you

It is true that the offspring of the Ancient Coyote still roams North America

The very one whose eyes told the mythical lies of Maidu

When a man says I love you

It means he would grow a second Adam Apple on his thyroid cartilage

And eat of Eden’s sweet abomination to be condemned hell North

…when a man says I love you

Perhaps he is truly in love with you, or not.
