The Nail-biter saw her as his saving grace from a life of lonesome worry She saw him as a meal ticket and a free ride He over looked her granny ash He disregarded her speech impediment Always holding his tongue when she stumbled on certain words because he loved her and all her imperfections She had a bullet proof black hole heart and his common sense was stuck in a sound proof cell as they had what seemed to him to be, passionate *** He worked day and night, coming home with dishpan hands Saving up to buy her a bouquet of hydrangeas, tulips and baby's breath She took them and said, "Wow, thank you you're such a good friend" The Nail-biter left and drove his car into the nearest embankment She did not attended the funeral, she was too busy having dinner with The man with OCD who didn't have tics but tocks She knew the routine and loved every second of it

Fatalistic Liaison
