Kind of like being married.
Brought a whore home one night
met in at a bar.
She stood around for a month.
Cried about everything I did for her
from macaroni and cheese lunches
to chili dinners from a can.
Walked around naked, not very sexy
after the first couple of days.
Devoured everything enable.
Cleaned out my cabinets.
Left peanut butter and sardine sandwiches on end tables.
Drank tea when I ran out of coffee, with honey
when I ran out of mike
Showered only after I suggested
Couldn’t remember to flush.
Addicted to Oprah and reruns of Bewitched
and The Partridge Family.
It was hell ‘til one morning
she wasn’t there
and I was lonely again.
