One-Scene Play For Valentine's Day
~ aka 'De Couple' ~
"For you, my love, a box of Swiss chocolate"
She stared at her spouse, "That's it?"
A bouquet of red roses he proffered
She turned aside to spit
Then tossed the new mink in the trash--
"But you ask every year ~ Oh, I quit!"
"What is it you'd like?" cried he in frustration
"A divorce," thus she. "Too expensive," thus he
Thus she, "Then let's just 'decouple"
