Bones and his
beautiful Griselda
no longer mess about
with flowers,
holding hands,
sweet-talk,
and stuff like that.  

They know each other
way too well for that.  

They get right down
to the nitty-gritty.

But those steps along the way make the nitty gritty even better. *S*

I think they had such hard lives, things like flowers and holding hands have a stench of bitterness(not towards each other, but the world).

Thanks dear Suthern,

Yes, that was always Griselda’s contention.  She could never quite convince Bones.

Love Bobby

Thanks dear Juju,

I know Griselda would have loved those things.

However, Bones was always just too angry.

Thanks Artic Wind,

Yes, perhaps.  However, we do know that it will end the way it ends.  Who knows.

Yea for nitty gritty and the pleasure and relief it gives through that biological function.

Thanks Eric,

I'm very happy you agree.  There's nothing like the nitty gritty.

Thanks for the kind words on the poem.

Bobby
