LOU RASMUS

She told me that I
shouldn’t spend
my last ten bucks
on a lottery ticket.
I said, “fuck that.”
And then I spent
my last ten bucks
on a lottery ticket.
She called me stupid.
I called her a cunt.
Then I scratched off
the ticket.
“Ha!” I yelled,
and I shoved
the ticket in her face.
I won twenty bucks.
