The “R” Word
a man can smell trouble when his girl
wants to discuss the “relationship”
an idiotic idea says the brain, instinct-
ively. Never use that word. Marriage,
romance, partnership, living arrangement-
yes; relationship-never. Sooner be tortured
by terrorists, or sat on by a fat diva farting
high notes at the Met than use the “R” word
which is a hissing asp wound around Cleopatra’s
neck and wrists to wrangle weird words
in front of the fire, sipping Merlot and brooding.
when the “R’ thing is about to implode upon itself
more fun is always the answer. Stop grieving,
Ride the Farris wheel,
Take a brisk walk,
Dance,
Read Bukowski,
Sail to Hawaii:
Most importantly, take off your clothes
Forget your woes, have more fun!
