Unconventional and unorthodox ideas about love and beauty. Why not, 'I am so beautiful/ and you are a fool to be in love with me'. He plays the tenor sax and gives the poem unity. Tremendous.

You are so beautiful, I am bowled over is the thing of deliberation to win the praise here under this poem.

This is SUCH a great poem. I think it is so interesting, so true, and I love how he writes - its like a funky kind of modern feel to his words.
