Me and Paul and Donna and Lana

A Poem and a Short-Short by Victor Lembrey
Author of Hope in the Form of Wexler



The Poem:

Paul
Fairly tall
Overgelled his 'do
(Wouldn't you?)
To impress Donna
Who made guys wanna
Do it.

Donna
And girlfriend Lana
Knew the moves
(And all the grooves)
To impress the guys
Who created lies
About it.

Donna and Paul got married last Fall.
Paul sees Lana whenever she calls.

The Short-Short:

When Donna found out Paul was seeing Lana, I knew I'd eventually be involved, and I knew it'd be ugly. See, I was seeing Lana. So I contacted Donna and asked if she wanted my help. "With what?" she asked. "With getting back at Paul," I said. "For what?" she said. "For cheating," I said. We agreed to meet. She looked hot. We hooked up. Now Paul wants to kill me. But HE was a dick FIRST!

Life sure is funny.
