The Pills Have Arrived
The pills have arrived!
I am back in business.
Been waiting so long,
For at least a week.
Crud, there goes my heart!
I am flushed; it’s racing.
I getting concerned;
Past the four hour peak.
I just want to meet
A real hot looking girl,
A girl that I don’t have to pay.
My friends will shut up,
And they’ll leave me be;
Won’t assume I’m “that way.”
To avoid the look
When the General falls,
Of disgust and dismay.
I won’t fear the night;
I can finally come out and play.
My heart needs a rest,
And I need a refill.
I’m hitting the town;
I might even score.
Now I can move out
Of my parents’ basement,
And I’ll date once more.
