TWENTY OR LESS…#143

Copyright 2003 by:Mark V Sheldon


profoundly anesthetized

spirit becomes
a statue

conscious of two
bitter gulps

its end


and


you’re married

LOL Man you must be talking about marriage. I liked the way you described it.

I will spare you the details of my wedding day, but? Let's just say it took a few more than "two bitter gulps" for me...

and no, your more serious message was not lost on me. sigh.

Can you write me a divorce in a twenty or less?

Enjoyed this more than my own ceremony.
