Audrey and I

at last
my humanoid girlfriend
arrives
in the mail
from China. she's
stuffed into a box
with bubble wrap.
she looks
like Audrey Hepburn
back in
the day.
rail thin, without
the cigarette addiction.
all i need to do is plug
her in,
and true love
begins.
she never ages,
or is mean,
never lies or talks back.
she even sings.
it's nineteen
sixty-three
all over again.
she's Betty Crocker
and Irma La Douce
all in one
package.
i'm taking her to Tiffanys
for breakfast
tomorrow.
