Guess the meaning- 4/22/03

Okay, I’m going to try something new. I’m going to write a short tanka, haiku, or take a few lines from one of my poems, and I want you to email me and/or hit up the message/bored and tell me what you think I’m talking about. I’ll try to do this every Tuesday, and give ya’ll the breakdown the following Tuesday. Cool? Okay, here goes:

Diamonds for Pearls
Tanka no. 2

Young girl with old man
Thick like old coconut milk
He gave her his truth
All she wants is diamonds
He has only given pearls
