It's so cliché,
but all I can think about when I hear someone say
"hopelessly devoted"
is Olivia Newton-John in her saccharine sweet sweater set,
her breathy voice dripping with self-pity
When what I really want is to see her belting out
"You're the One that I Want",
stalking like a panther towards John Travolta
in her black, water tight suction suit
In truth, hopelessly modifying devoted
is just despair
disguised as a rose
