| Remember Me To Roger |
| by Lisa Zaran |
| The age of seventeen
has a way of sweetening the brain. You know how it goes. You meet him. He's perfect. Agreeable to whatever you mention. Like nobody you've ever been with before. Has money. A car. The intensity to have sex six times a day. Calls you princess. Calls you dollface. Calls you collect from Maricopa county jail. You pay his bail. You bite your tongue. Have sex and more sex. Try not to take it so hard when he leaves you for your sister. |
