It had been a rough week and getting away for the weekend seemed just right. And now she was taking herself out for dinner – she even dressed up a little. Her favorite PEARL necklace around her neck, she headed out. Cheered up by the early evening bustle of the city streets, she amused herself by reading flyers posted on various windows and poles. She saw an announcement of a free lecture on the AXIOM of infinity and its implications. (A head scratcher for sure). Next up was a handwritten ad for HASTY Delivery Service (which seemed unfortunate). Much better was the cheerful flyer for the WACKY Bar, offering prizes to the best DAFFY costume. A quick glance at The DANDY DADDY flyer on the next pole was a puzzle, (was it a weird escort service? a high-end shop for fathers?) until she realized that it was two flyers that had stuck together, torn and rain spattered. Shaking her head at her own foolishness, she continued on her way. It felt great to be in the city, where life always seemed just a little more interesting.

Had too much to DRINK
Spent too much DOUGH
at the studio by the bar
trying to turn a DECAL into a tattoo
from a memory oh so impaired
It went wrong, very wrong
Slurred my words, and now
forever my body marked –
I wanted a duck named DAFFY
Instead got one named DADDY
