While I've been fortunate enough to avoid this particular life upset, many others haven't. Still, it's never too late to start over.
I happened upon a rat.
With glittery shrewd eyes
over jaunty whiskers
it so hypnotized my better judgement
that I fell in love
marched the White Promenade
to wed this rat
who being a rat after all
bit me bloody again and again
every time I tried to love it
till mental septic shock
dissolved my hypnosis and
I hired an exterminator who
trapped the rat
broke it
skinned it
discarded its tattered remains
so now I am restored to
liberty, privacy, peace and
Rats are phoebic of marriage and do bite, particularly two legged rats. It is however, currently illegal in all 50 states to break and skin one. Legislation is in pending on the discarding of tattered remains provided there are no witnesses:-) Patrick
