The Way of the Blackberry

why would she do such a thing
right in the middle of the most
important party you'd ever thrown
a party that would make or break
your career your way of life for as
far as you could possibly peer into
the future my god doesn't she
know that staging is everything
and timing has gone the way of
the blackberry so ok get a grip
she went ahead and she did it
she threw up a hairball she's a
cat for crying out loud what do
you expect when you give her 
red wine with fish

Red wine… WITH FISH??? Everybody knows it should be gin. This has the feel of a true story about it. Fun, if it isn’t… OMG, if it is. Terry
