Used Cars

Marriage? Pull out the flesh calculator. Love, number bottom of the list. Spouse first? Five will do. Me! YES! One over all! Sex above the friendship? Chuckling; Communication can be established in the golden years. "My need!" "Yes indeed!" Puzzling thought from my inner being; Three moments down the bumming road, "Can I be truthful?" Sensual pleasure takes a nose dive. Backup plan? Friendship never established in the beginning? Thinking time! The individual thoughts? "It must be the other side lose." "What about me, what I want in the desires?" Yes! The trade in! The big 'D' word. (Och! From the writer.) After all this, I never knew God made people in the image of used cars? In time, Trade-in dealers get traded off to loneliness.
