By The Way, Were You A Fan of Ally McBeal?
Following is an important recorded message
left on your voice mail:
“Mr. Jack Jones? Is anyone home?
“This is Miss Amnesia calling in
to say everything is Ok.
(And I’m wearing my slinkiest
shortest black silk dress
with nothing underneath but some
curves and bones for cling-to appearances,
black T-Strap 6-inch stiletto heels
and a string of Majorica pearls.)"
“Yes, everything is ok,
you’ve only got The-Newly-Divorced-Syndrome
and it’s written all over you,
(Don’t worry, no one else can read
the truth of your affliction.)
You think you’re Jesus
and you’re saving all the
Whores of Babylon
with your Kama Sutra
er.. positioning.
But, just in case, you
didn’t know
the price you’re paying
is no laughing matter, even
if it comes at the cost
of your blissfully ignorant… dumbstick.
(I do hope you don’t take yourself
wayyyyyyyyyy too seriously.)
Have a nice day Mr. Jones.”
