she denies him the consolation of a cliche...

Ouch! That is a brutal come back! That made ME sting just reading it. I love your wit! Great write as always.

thanks, sammy, appreciate it...

we perform to the limit of our capabilities. too often, it isn't enough...

not often enough to stop us
from trying, though..:)

I didn't know "it was good while it lasted' was a cliche, so maybe she didn't either! :)

I think sometimes that everything
is a cliche...and then I think that
everything is a unique event...
and then sometimes I don't bother
to think at all..:)

Thinking! Should be banned!

Happy Valentines Day by the way!:)

thanks..:)

How ironic. I love your he said she said; lies all lies!  Seriously, you should write a play on words. :)

I've got one in my head -
star crossed lovers, family
fueds - the Montagues and
the consonants..:)

What!..who, how?

when
I know,
I'll tell
you why..:)

Haha! A great piece of hard reality in this wonderful piece Paul.
Cheers...Harry

she said I could have been kinder,
but to tell you the truth
I thought was..:)

Sometimes the sprint works best ... Sometimes the marathon ... She sounds like she needs a decathlete ... Just not Bruce Jenner

whatever she needs, I am
destined to be a mere
spectator..:)
