Fate' s Joke

by Joan Serratelli

Kate met David
when she was merely 15

It was
(to coin a phrase)
Love at first sight

He was the love of her life
No reason
It was arranged by Fate
She had nothing to say about it
The Fates werre laughing

Kate grew up
to be a strong
woman whose demands
were few
She ONLY wanted
the one thing
dhe could not have
...LOVE

She would grow old
and bitter
Her life became
one disastter after another

G-d gives you
ONLY what you can handle

Kate, and only Kate
would have the guts
to dance on her enemy's
grave

The Fates continue
to laugh

Kate made only one mistake
...meeting David

and she paid
dearly

...and the Fates
I think I can STILL
hear them
on quiet days
