A witty and delightfully: A witty and delightfully unapologetic answer to a familiar complication in relationships. A pleasure to read, brilliant wordsmith!

Be fully blessed, fine Poet.
I must disagree with..: I must disagree with your self-assessment. I would say you're very strong. I'll tell you why. You've placed this poem in a folder you call 'Dark and Moody'. You could have called it 'Mark and Doody'. Rather than go for the cheap laugh and saying something a five year old would find amusing, you stuck to your guns and named it what you felt was more appropriate to the subject at hand. Bravo!
Hi. I happened to notice..: Hi. I happened to notice you published this poem on January 12, 2012. It's now February 2024. Twelve years have passed. It's my sincere hope that they've gotten some by now. If they're still not getting any after 12 years, the issue may be psychological in nature. Therapy may be the answer. I can recommend a few if you're interested. Thank you.
I love your poems in this: I love your poems in this style. The last stanza of this poem compares bleak irony to hope's iridescent and effulgent showers.
I feel something has taken place: Ago - it was only 2 days worth of crap
we wasted his time while he played us for cap

he is looking for quickest route to exit the entire play

I thank you for your: I thank you for your enthusiasm, and generous critique. I am always overwhelmed when actual poets such as yourself find favor with my writing. Again, my sincerest thanks.
