If you will die for me,
I will die for you
and our graves will be like two lovers washing
their clothes together
in a laundromat
If you will bring the soap
I will bring the bleach.

    Richard Brautigan, the author of this poem, has been deceased since 1984. I do not understand why you are writing comments that seem to be directed at the author of the poem.
