She

Post by Doreen Peri » September 14th, 2008, 9:25 am

Apparently
every time he uses
the word she
people think
he's referring to ME!

Great.
Such is my fate.

Does this mean
every time I use
the word he,
people think
I'm talking about him,
deductively?

What a hoot!
There's only one she?
That's insane,
wouldn't you agree?

I didn't realize
that we'd be connected
throughout eternity.

So much for moving on.
Guess it's time to do it
on another level.

Escape the devil.
Put myself up on e-bay
for bids. Going going gone!
Prop up my whirlybird
landing skids,
take a new name,
travel to another nation.
Would that sever the relation?

Probably not.
There would most likely be a book.
As soon as I turn my head,
as soon as I don't look,
a book with the word she in it.

Figures the reader would
then put ME in it!

I could be in France or Germany,
Canada, Africa or Greece...
but no matter where I go,
there's be the She Police.

Are we siamese twins,
forever attached at the waste?
Pun intended.
I rest my case.

Gonna change my name I guess,
turn off the internet and TV.
Tabloid news is ridiculous,
but I digress,
gotta get myself free.

Check ya out at the supermarket.
This isn't fun. I'm done.

no matter where you go, there you are
no matter where you run, there you will be
you could always leave for Thailand and
come back as a He

Doreen, Those gender boxes are hard to escape from. You shoot from the hip with maximum funny bone effect.
