Larry Jones- A Poem

PMS

She said,
I think my period
is about to start.

How's that?
I asked.

I'm craving pizza,
she said.

I thought you always crave chocolate,
I said.

That too,
she said.

Translation:
I don't care
what you're doing
I don't care
what time it is
get off your ass
go out and get me some
chocolate and pizza
immediately,

I thought.
