Thursday 13 – A Love Story Gone Wrong

Johnny showed up at my house on Thursday,


With a message from his boss in the form of medical traction.


My arms in desperate pain, I protested any infraction.


“The love potion you sold him failed.”


“Impossible,” I wailed.


“Did he drink it at midnight on the dot?”


“Right on the witching hour’s spot.”


“Did he stand naked under the full moon?”


“Just like a love hungry loon.”


“Did he gaze upon his lady love?”


“Yes, the woman as sweet as a turtle dove.”


“Sounds as if the potion passes.”


“No, she wore mirrored sunglasses.”
