“ It Happened “...

“ It Happened “

It happened
glimmers of promise
abounding no matter
while pining
for marriages
as loveless affairs

ubiquitously unscripted
rueful incidences of lost virility
left feeling nimbly glib
upon downing “ little blue pills”
in order to muster sympathy
via thinning conflicts

still punching even harder
over arguably harsher plot scars
from misogynous horrors
of monstrous origins
sparking memoirs
and graphic novels
sparring from afar...
