Short History With Requisite Ironies
Upon his last divorce
the marriage counselor
threw it in, moving
to a studio in Pennsauken. (cue
Thousand and One Nights slide.)
Thousand TV channels, too,
hardly soothed him, reruns
of My Mother the Car sufficing
for the raw jail sentence he
felt deserving of. A cleaning
lady once a month set
him free to go into Philly
and a ball game. He’d
return somewhat drunk
and toast his exes before
wrestling sleep. Also,
Truth and Beauty. Personnel
honcho of Wawa Stores HQ
in Wawa, PA finally tabbed his
background as priceless in
handing disputes arising mid
coffee makers and cashiers.
The first day a flash flood took
his car and it couldn’t be found.
Trooper Kip Stoltzfus told him
not to worry. Couldn’t search all
the streams while it still poured.
Fire truck carried him to an AAA
motel across from Granite Run Mall.
Action News! sought an interview
but he shivered under blankets.

The Married Couple
Each seeking counsel
from miserable friends.
Thence “professionals” charging
every small event with theory.
Lawyers next,
aiding and abetting
the wreckage. So, all
who’ve made a go of
nothing.
