Tomato Juice Man

Tomato juice man
He's a man
with things
on top of other things
He hates Bill Murray
like a cornflake hates tomato juice
He cries tears of periwinkle
tasting cotton candy
that tastes like cotton candy
with tomato juice in it
So kiss me
I'm not green yet

This was inspired by, but not entered in, the sophomoric poetry contest of 2000 (see: Sophomore).
