The
pamphlet sitting in the rack
In the
grocery store vestibule
Next to the
brochure
For
Cat Fancy magazine
Was new
and irresistible
STOP BED WETTING NOW!
Broadcast
the thick black type
Across the
bright yellow paper
I snatched
up the prize
Leafed
through and found
To my
great pleasure
A mail-in
interest card
Which of
course I would be filling out
Not with
my name
But with that
of a good friend
Whomever
came to mind first
It’s what
I do for my friends
To let
them know they are special
Just ask
Robby about it
If you can
distract him
From
making out with your mom!
He loves
you mother
In
all the wrong ways
This point
is a confession
I learned
it from my mother
I don’t
spend a lot of energy
Trying to
exact revenge
If I don’t
like you
I
ignore you
Of course
if I like you
I might
just pester you
So that
your fondest wish
Would be
that I didn’t like you
Quite
so much
Don’t be
dismayed
By your
complimentary copy
Of Incontinence Today
When it
arrives in 6 to 8 weeks
It’s just
a little love note
Along with the free Depends sample
To show I’m
thinking of you
And that I
care deeply
About
your bladder control
