Fifty Ways To Dump Your Lover

Fifty Ways To Dump Your Lover

A Poem by Paul Bell

She was definitely dumping him
All she needed was the right opportunity
It was like that song
Fifty ways to leave your lover
Now just to get it through to him
You’re crap in the sack Jack
If only you were more like Stan
What a man
Or even Gus
Though you do have a lot in common with Gus
You always go by bus
God, you’re so last year
Out on your ear
Okay maybe that was a bit severe
Need a new plan
I’m just going to tell you straight
Before it’s too late
Don't come on all coy
There's something I have to tell you
It's about me and Roy
I’m having his boy
I know what you’re going to say
What happened to Lee
Let me see
It started on the bus
Him and Gus
I don’t want to discuss
Okay, well Stan caught them
Do I need to spell it out
Stan said they were all like brothers
Now it seems they two are lovers
Stan was devastated
I mean, was that in the plan
Anyway, Roy told him about us
Which was fatal for you and Gus
When the driver braked
Driving the bus
Stan no more
So I end this letter
Missing you Jack
Such a young age to leave
Just turned fifty, lover.

Hilarious! I loved it.
An acoustical Paul Simon began this little tidy of yours. But once we rounded line 6
A hot piano nudged out Paul
And...
Ray 'the man' Charles (& his backup singers) started the tune "Hit The Road Jack".
But I was able to return to the inner rhythm of the poem.
Lol a very fun read.
