Chapter 16 - Or. Or. Or.

I met a girl,

She said her name was Lilly.

Said she was lucid...

Her man was Jewish.

She said: "I don't really ever do this."

-

Another one who had a man.

Her name was Jenny.

It's crazy what some "taken" folks will do 

Off of the henny...

-

There was Tammy

That one day.

While her husband was away...

Things got messy.

There was Jessy,

There was a catchphrase she would say...

-

There was Trudy with the booty.

How she toyed with me...

It blew me.

Left a couple of new scars,

Emotions rolled right through me.

-

There was Ashley.

Alex.

Alexis.

The last one didn't know it,

But I worked with her boyfriend last year,

He was a decent poet...

-

And Venessa?

None the lesser.

Damn...

She knew just how to throw it.

Mellonie...I fell in love with.

But fuck it, she'll never know it.

-

There was Krystal

With the pistol

This one I wanted to wife...

Shit, I missed though.

She was his, though.

She wanted a better life...

-

There was Tonya

That one time...ya.

She only loved me after dark...

And X-rated Anya,

Layered like lasagna,

We used to rendezvous out in the park.

-

That one crazy Kelly...

The neighbor girl, Shelly?

Neither was my type

So I shrugged them both off.

Not Remmy

Or Sarrah.

Or Penny.

Or Melly.

There was little hard investment.

ALL that she was Microsoft...

-

There was that girl, Liza?

We all sat on her roof

And her ghetto friend, Kesha

Was missing a tooth...

And her sister was rachet

And hella uncouth

And they thought they were rappers...

They stayed in the booth.

-

I could keep this going 

But I think we all get it...

So many experiences 

That I can't even regret it...

Yet still not a lover for me

All these women I see

Are miserable

In the relationships they get in...

I just want a wife

And a kid

And a wedding...

But crazy-weird shit

Is all I have been getting...

Yeah, I've met a few

Who seem actually true,

But there always seems to be 

Some small detail that they're forgetting...

Like "Oh, I have herpes."

Or "Oh, you didn't know? I'm married."

Or "I got an abortion..."

Or "You're invited to our wedding."

Or. "It all sounded so good..."

Or. "I'm getting back with him."

Or. "You knew this was temporary..."

Or. "I don't think for us, this is a win."

Or.

Or...

Or...

Or...
