She Missed That Class
"SHE MISSED THAT CLASS"
"I'm tired of this life,"
she said.
"I'm not going to do this
anymore, it's not right and
the last thing I want my kids
to know about me is that I'm
sick and disgusting," she said.
"I know I need to change and
today, I do. I've grown up,"
she said.
"I just want to be left
alone," she said.
"if I open my flytrap for all
these men, I'll find love and then
get married," she said.
"I know you're trying to help
me but I just want to live my
life and not be reminded how
much of a whore I am," she
said.
"I know I have problems, I
know I'm not doing things
right and because of that,
I've decided I'm not going
to be this way anymore. yes,
you're right, eventually,
I'll catch HIV and then it's
over," she said.
I went out for a cigarette
this
morning.
just outside the house was a
used
condom on the floor.
"I'm not doing that anymore!"
she proclaimed. "I know I've
bumped my ugly with everyone
I've ever known and met but I'm a
changed woman," she said.
I'm
sure
she
is
the
epitome
of
truth.
