A Breakup Made In Heaven
by Terry OlynikI wished her well.
Somewhere,
Under the heartache,
I truly wanted the best for her.
She expressed a fervent hope
I contract malaria,
And I swear I heard the word
"Beheading" muttered under her breath.
All's well
That ends....
Without police tape and
Chalk outlines. 10/07/2005 Author's Note: No gun play - no foul.

| Posted by Michelle Angelini on 10/10/05 at 02:41 AM You've really been making me laugh lately - not that I'm in a bad mood, but sometimes it's nice to get help. Just make sure that if she comes after you that you and Cisco, the cat, have a head start to Mexico to work in that bodega. ;-)
