LJ Idol Week 16: Open Topic

Mar 04, 2011 22:38

When my house caught on fire, I got out.  I didn’t raise doubt about the degree of monstrosity or whether or not I could manage the hot.  I didn’t hide under the bed and stay and pray to be left undead.

No, I saved those madman’s actions for my man instead.

I ignored the alarms that roared as his smoke blew up toward my ass.  I let him act as though I were second class.  In all reality, I should have gone postal and declared myself a priority.

See, he didn’t completely seem into me.  He told a good story and was nearly a guarantee until year three.  That’s when I saw all the women he would call.  And when I called him on it, he’d squeak and squall about his disgust for my mistrust.

And that’s not all.  His lust lacked luster.  It became a real bummer.  I spent a whole summer purchasing lingerie each day and still couldn’t even get a lay.  Unless you’re talking about Fritos and Cheetohs.  Yeah, I was busy munching on those while he conversed and perversed with online hos.

On top of all that schlogg, he didn’t even like my dog.

Despite the blaze, I stayed.  And when my heart burned to the ground, it was too late for first aid.  And the flame wasn’t even the source of blame.
