Sweet Revenge

I’d never met his sister before.
“You have beautiful eyes,” she said.
I blushed.
He pointed and laughed.
“So, how’d you get that big scar, big man?”
“Well, you see, I had to subdue a perp, and he had a knife…”
“That’s a great story, now tell the truth.”
Mumble.
“What was that?”
“Well, the pan was really hot!”
“What kind of pan? Oil pan? Frying pan?”
Mumble.
“I’m sorry, what?”
Mumble.
“One more time?”
MUMBLE!
“Did he say…?”
Yes. He said, “cupcakes.”
Now he’s all red too.
Now it’s my turn to point and laugh.
Talk about sweet revenge.

What Friends Do

If you will carry,
I will make myself lighter,
Easing both our loads.

Then, I will carry,
Even if you get heavy.
You would do the same.

New Year’s Resolutions

They sat together
With friends
All in a group
Chatting,
Reminiscing,
Predicting.
The night went by quick,
Soon,
Someone asked the rest’s
New Year’s Resolution.
When her turn came,
She said,
“I’m not going to be a bitch anymore.”
He looked at her,
Let out a laugh,
“Good luck with that!”
They didn’t leave together.
He said his
New Year’s Resolution was,
“Leave the bitch.”
