Outta Whack




“He’s not quite right” she said,
never knowing if her suspicions
were correct, but what did she
expect from  a guy who gave her

the evil eye. Oh sure, he called it flirting
but he was skirting the issue.
And she wasn’t really sure what to make
of his attitude, since her gratitude

was out of character for
a character such as she.
She took what she wanted
and never took any crap.

So this sorry sap had her pegged.
He said, “She’s not quite right”.
A match made in heaven, the future was bright
for Mr. and Mrs. Not Quite Right!

      You're very perceptive, Laurie! I wrote this while wearing my clown nose and juggling! It apparently shows!

      Right is right, Kim! And you're correct: even not quite so can be just so!

      You're welcome, Wyoming. Any similarity to relationships, real or non are strictly coincidental. ;)

    This made me chuckle. Not quite right is actually right. Loved it.

    That's a relief, Suzy. My parents always said that I was "not quite right", so it's good to know I'm actually right.

I would appreciate feedback on my work. If we don't learn, we'll never grow.
