I visited my girlfriend in the hospital
after her appendicitis operation.
she looked good
and her smile made me smile
"I made a friend," she told me.
There had been another girl in the room with her
and this girl,
she was in the hospital because she sprayed a whole
can of bug repellent into a cup and drank it
"Why?" I asked.
"Oh, well," said my girlfriend. "You wouldn't understand.
Let's just say she wanted to kill the butterflies
in her stomach."
"Okay."
