galvanized steel,
heavy duty trash bags
and Minnie Mouse
duct tape,
it is reinforced
with moon pies
and hot-glued
with egg rolls
My steampunk heart
will last
for centuries,
I will have
love affairs
with vampires
that have fancy names
like
Lord Deerstalker
or Count
Peanut-Butter Merriweather
You won’t break my
steampunk heart,
so please don’t
even try
