Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

Come On Over

Where you from? Do you know Jim?
   Of course I do.  He's a nice guy too.

What do you do?  -- You say you're a teacher?
   Well, we need a good teacher.  Yes, we do.  

Married with kids?  -- That's nice to hear.
   Come on over with the Missus; we'll have a few beers

You say you don't drink?  You don't like football?
   -- Sure nice to meet you.  I'll give you a call...

Line Gauthier November 19, 2019 at 8:41 PM That's fabulous, Gershon. I love it. Men like things simple. I'm obviously not that bright, it took me a long time to figure for myself the brilliant message between these few lines. Brilliant, Gershon. A FAVE for me. Gershon Wolf November 19, 2019 at 8:46 PM Aw, c'mon, Line. I won't permit anyone criticizing my friend and fellow poet, Line Gauthier! (And 'brightness' is what society narrowly restricts to 'critical thinking.'... E.g., I'm just in awe of your 'Shape' poems. I can't see things the way you do. But 'artistic seeing' is not valued as 'brightness.' Bah Humbug!)… At any rate, thank you so much for the FAVE. Yours truly, Gershon

Tom Cunningham November 19, 2019 at 8:41 PM Could be a lot of yawning going on lol. Gershon Wolf November 19, 2019 at 8:47 PM --But action-packed yawning, I hope! LOL. Thanks, Tom! ~ gw

Michelle Faulkner November 19, 2019 at 6:21 PM I have had similar conversations, this is a fun little ditty! Gershon Wolf November 19, 2019 at 8:41 PM Hope you haven't had to bear the brunt of the rejection, Michelle! Smiles, Gershon

Chris Green November 19, 2019 at 4:26 PM Doesn't sound like the life of the party to me. : ) Fun one my friend. Gershon Wolf November 19, 2019 at 8:40 PM This oddball may well be the death of many a party---but he'll be the center of attention at the 'Life After Death' parties, no doubt! LOL. Thanks, Chris. ~ Gershon
