Frosty Are We? By John Patrick Robbins

She said to me mid-conversation:

"Can you write me something as if you were actually in love with me?"

I was silent for a bit in my reply.

Then, at last, I said:

"Sure, just give me a second."

As I quickly hung up on her before she could even reply goodnight.

Poured a drink en route to oblivion and turned off my phone for the next several days.

And as I powered it back on, it lit up one text at a time.

Till at last, I read the inevitable.

"Hey, asshole! Where the fuck have you been?

And what about that poem I asked you to write for me?"

"Sweetheart, that's the thing. You seem to have confused your genres.

For I write poetry, not children's fairy tales, so I guess you’re shit out of luck.

By the way, are we still on for tonight?"

She yelled and screamed out a few mixed obscenities before her sudden departure.

When it comes to drinks and my truths.

I seldom, if ever, forget to include the ice.
