Radio Prophecies

Today
my car radio
has read my
mind,

a prophet
divining
answers to
a question
broadcast
a thousand times
an hour:

What is Love?

Beyond the bromides
and the breakups.

Hear this,
Seeker:

Today I will
tell you
the story
of a young man
who makes
Youtube movies
of his
conversations
with a
Squirrel Puppet,

in which he
confesses his
sadness
and the Squirrel,
in a cartoon
falsetto,
comforts him
with
Squirrel Puppet
Wisdom.

I Am in Love.
