Notes About The Poem

The question arises - in high school - "how do I break up with...."
So, as a public service - may I present:
------------------------------------------------------------------

Breakup Senryus

Handy break-up Senryus.
Pick one to quickly, cut that old
relationship cord:

I'm sorry, What'd you say? 
I can't hear you *confused look*
- we’re breaking up.

You’re the guy that 
every school girl seems to want... 
- today's their lucky day.

It's time we took 
our relationship to the 
previous level.

I still cherish the
initial misconceptions
I had about you.

"...today's their lucky day" this is my favorite. This poem brought to mind a song by Paul Simon from the 70's, way before your time, "Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover." I enjoyed your wry sense of humor this morning, Anais, have a great day. John

Ahh, I listened to it - I can see that =] I like the humorous pieces every bit as much as the "deep" ones... Thank you =]
