 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan


Some who don't think
I take love seriously
I play with girls hearts
They played with mine first
It's hard on a boy to ask a girl out
and be turned down
Even if he might have bad breath
I rotted my teeth out on certs
An open diary
At this age who cares
My first date was arranged by her mother
The girl was new next door
Cute but didn't' like me
Only desperate girls liked me
It gave me such a complex
I turned to playing sports and boxing
Tall ganglia wearing glasses
Most girls didn't like me
Thats OK in college voted
a stud and campus King
You missed out girls!
Her mother was not yet thirty
Do the math we were thirteen
Mom came to my Mother
My daughter makes bad choices
Could your son take her to and from school?
Her daughter and her were best friends
They both wore the same makeup
Mom was much too young to have a daughter
Was she hitting on me--nah no girl did?
He seems like such a nice boy
End of story her daughter did not like nice boys
Mother's liked me girls didn't't't't
It gave me a hangup for a long time
I had a crush on this girl
"You are the last boy on earth I would date."
There was some finality in that!
It was when I decided to date girls no one else wanted
You know, missing teeth, overweight near ugly
I was about fifty fifty with those--some still had taste!
I think it was my missing front tooth and facial injuries
I got those from fighting good looking boys for girls
My second blind date was blind
But she saw through me--my ears were too big
My first real date was with a jazz singer in a band
Now you have seen Jazz singers they are overweight
We hit it off very good until she told me she was pregnant
And I was still a virgin with a missing front tooth
The next date arranged by a mother worked with me
She said you are so nice and the girl next door would be perfect
It was all arranged that we would meet at the lake
I brought a friend along and as soon as she saw me
She ran up and started hugging my friend
OK, it was the girl I was the last person she would date
He was short and fat but had a much better dentist
Most of this is true except the parts that I made up
Like most of the love poetry on this site
How can we believe it is love so strong
When you are dumped on every time he leaves the room?
Please do not tell my wife she doesn't see too good
She keeps me around thinks I am the family dog
