Traces of Ambur.
About six months ago I noticed that Ambur Rockell had ‘boxers’ listed among the goodies she had for sale. I was naturally curious… as opposed to being UNnaturally curious, of course; and Ambur confirmed that she was selling boxer shorts with one of her pics printed on them. Well! Quicker than you can say Paypal…
There was a delay in the delivery… I had nightmare visions of some pervert postman wearing MY boxer shorts to bed every night… but when I opened the parcel, all distress fled. Ambur had included a big BIG handful of photos, all autographed, and adorned with lipsticky kisses too. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… cherry. My favourite flavour.
“Hello Trouble,” she said, as she slid beneath my arm.
My name wasn’t Trouble.
But you always tell yourself
That you can ignore the minor details.
Her name was Ambur
And we walked home along rainy streets.
“I’m not the devil I seem,” she said;
Thought I, what kind then are you?
When the late sun stirred me in the morning I found the answer.
My wardrobe stood gutted.
The leather jacket…
Five of my best shirts…
And all of my
Fifteen
Silk
Ties.
But in return…
It beats coming to in an ice bath
With holes in your back
And both your kidneys gone.
It beats that. But not by much.
I’m going back to that bar tonight:
I really want that leather jacket.
Deep down, I know, Ambur is good.
I reserve judgement
However
On her girlfriend.

Whaaaa? Okay, a bit confused. She stole your boxers? Is that what you are saying. I had a guy steal my headband once and sent him angry texts with no response given. Strange fetish. He later hit on one of my male coworkers.

Yes, I noticed. Try it this way:
Boy meets girl
Boy takes girl home
Girl rifles boy’s wardrobe
Girl takes best parts of said wardrobe, leaving autographed boxer shorts as compensation.
As for your clothing thief – was he wearing your headband when he made his move on the other guy?
Zolton
I don’t think he was wearing it, but that would surely make me laugh. I do wonder what he is doing with it!
And your story is crazy… hope those were really nice boxers.
Gregoryno6 replied
Tania D wondered why the girl raided the guy’s wardrobe and ignored his wallet.
Simple. She was that kind of a devil.
And they are nice boxers. Too nice to wear.
I might get a calligrapher to do a nice copy of this poem one day and get them framed.

I’d just like to say to the people who have been in to view this: thank you. I was beginning to think nobody liked it.
Feel free to leave a comment, too…
