The Two We Knew
Young disgustingly handsome
hooked-up with youthful adorably ugly,
both happily mixed and matched
the years away.
Sadly, disgustingly handsome
turned out
to be genetically disposed
to growing a bulbous nose,
while adorably ugly
matured to a be perfect beauty.
Some said it was fate
some blamed karma
for sadly they no longer
complimented each other.
Eventually all turned-out well;
old age came to call
no one could tell
who had made the better deal,
but by then
no one really cared at all.
