Romeo and Juliet

If you will die for me,
I will die for you
and our graves will be like two lovers washing
their clothes together
in a laundromat
If you will bring the soap
I will bring the bleach.

    This is just too great. Way too great. I love the way Brautigan describes things! Who else could come up with this kind of description? The things in his head... I want to see inside his head! Or maybe I don't. I think I'd be more content just to read the margins of his papers.

    Another great one by the great Brautigan himself. If I only could write something that could make others feel the way Brautigan does. He's truly an original.
