saddest news today
by Charlie Morganyou probably couldn't take it,
so i'll buffer the sad news;
seems a friend and his bride
had the third girl of a pack
of already born (earlier)girls.
three times trying for a boy.
three times facing disappointment
treating the imposter to a seat
at the table of sad's-anguish,
both eating the last bite of hope.
he builds molehills for them;
were they boys, it'd be mountains,
railroads, guns, holsters, ammo;
so, it'll be a pretty blue dress
with the right amount of fringe. 11/06/2007 Posted on 11/06/2007
