Honeypots, Oceans and Blazing Tsunamis, these are the names for my ex-partners, count three, I'm 38; that means roughly one every decade, since I was 18. Honeypots, she was a stargazer; took me to the ballpark and brought along tomatoes, to hurl at that one ump she liked to heckle so much; after the ballgame was done she thought the backseat was fun, too bad it was that of a cop car. Oceans, she was a lovely ditch of selflessness; took her parents hatchback to the racetrack and then basically totalled it, when asked why, she'd point to the wind and cry, "I hope what I set afloat, finds a home with somebody." And Blazing Tsunamis, oh my, what a body; standing in the checkout line at target you'd never know she'd steal your carpet, light it on fire, put it out in the toilet; when confronting her about why she soiled it, she'd laugh, "I don't know what you think, but it's more fun rolling around bare-assed on a hardwood floor." What's wrong with them or is it me? I don't know, who's to say? Either way, It's been a long, fun, hard life, and I wouldn't change a thing, except for maybe the part where they ganged-up on me like a ******* hurricane in the parking lot of Macy's; burned me down, spilled my drink; made me drive into that tree. So you see, your honor, that's why I'm here today.
