From the things-we-wish-we'd-said-or-done series.

"It is indeed unfortunate
that you find yourself in this
precarious, debilitating situation,
my dear," she said as she slithered
her hip-hugged skirt and titty-tight
sweater to the other side of the platform,
then stepped down to take to take a seat
on the majesty stool, one leg perched
like a royal pheasant, her crown
slightly askew.

"Yes, it is," I answered as I spied
the half-eaten sliced grapefruit
on her plate then reached over
to grab the orb (slimy side up),
as it accidentally slipped out of
my hand into her plastic face.

"Oops!" I said.
"Oh my! And it is indeed unfortunate that
you have citrus on your botox."

Thanks, burntvalentine! You read it the first time at AC, right?

Welcome to the Studio! I hope you enjoy it here. Crazy place but hey, well, I call it home anyway.

an interesting concept for a series. it opens the door for a lot of retribution! lay it on the bastards. they have it coming anyway!

Post by **Doreen Peri** » March 11th, 2008, 11:54 pm

yeah they do!

and so i will!

(maybe if the muse stays with me)

thanks vm, dno

retribution, if nothing else, is at least identifiable with the general public

i'm looking for a means to sell out...

this might work

Yeah, I've been thinking over the insult/retribution poem idea lately, too, a good one posted on PoetryinBaltimore.com and then seeing this on AC. Might hafta try it.
