 One Flower Under A L.A. Freeway

Loving The Japanese


I loved the Japanese like the over-used word "forever"
Like Pearl Harbor never happened
World War II was just the next number in a series of world events
and the USS Arizona was still docked to set sail

I loved the Japanese like the over-used word "forever"
When I saw the Kamikaze slant-eyes magnify me in their target I got caught
A big American girl who aims to please the other side
Please! Don't shoot.
