(an old one of mine)





love stinks

there's an old rock song with that title
can't fucking remember who sang it
doesn't much matter, i know the words by heart,
by heart, ha!
it was a selection on the jukebox where i hang.
me and a friend, we used to play it a couple of times
ah, more than a couple, every friday and saturday night.
we'd sing love" sucks" instead of stinks.
suck being shouted.
his girlfriend tending bar didn't like that too much.
we did.
he married her, needed a steady income and a place to live.
love sucks.
