one teenager sent a message to a newspaper saying: two homosexuals moved across the street. she wondered what she could do to improve the quality of the neiborhood.

the response: well, you could move


This isn't THAT kind of love story
you're not dating a vampire or werewolf
I'm not an ogre
that rescues you from a tower
I don't hang off of ferriswheels
until you date me
I don't crash weddings
to get married or
turn into a blue giant
to save your planet
I'm not an enormous ape
that swipes you away
I love you with all my heart
but this isn't THAT kind of love story
