Oh my God calm down
no need to make a scene,
your hair is crazy
and the wailing is obscene.
Buck up buttercup
we ain’t got time for that,
dry off those cheeks
and re-adjust your cock hat.
[tick tock tick tock
you drag on and on,
leaking cheap mascara
after my buzz is long gone.]
Get a grip Rachel
being alone is not so bad,
at least you’re not marrying
a coke head older than your dad.

A clever and fun read. “Get a grip Rachel being alone is not so bad, at least you’re not marrying a coke head older than your dad” One the best ‘lines’ I’ve read in weeks. No pun intended…

Made me laugh; so relatable it hurts. Nice rythmn to the poem as well which only helps it’s smart funny nature.
