You Frighten Me Ray

I was meandering thru my dearest Co-Creator and friend TeriLee’s work
and found on the top ..thank god, one of my favs she wrote a while back…Which inspired me to write this little didy.. both of our pieces about True Love and loss via
the Real American Way!!!

Quid Pro Quo and the Fake Leg
TeriLee

Harvey was in love
She didn’t want much to do with him
Until an accident took her leg
He told her he loved her
She snubbed him
He began to beg
She figured she would settle
Because of her mishap
She had a prosthetic limb
She decided to marry Harvey
The odds of finding a “good man”
Were looking pretty dim
She tried to make him what she wanted
No more drinkin’
No more smokin’
No more late nights at Grizzly’s pub
He could never be good enough
But his love for her was undaunted
She turned his ranch house in to a show place
She told him to say “Hello”
“Howdy Ya’ll” was not allowed
His music was a waste
His friends were all too raw
She needed a more sophisticated crowd
But the morning she threw his dog out the door
Well…..that was that
Harvey could take no more
His wife, he begged for all her love
Went over a cliff
With one gentle shove
Her leg he still holds dearly
For the love they could have had
That has ended
But now he sees things clearly
There was so much more
That she could have loved him for
So he drilled a hole in her big toe
He turned her leg into a bong
Smoked a bowl and sang this song
“Goodbye my sweet,
It was a treat,
Too bad you had to go
But, you forgot…
Quid pro quo”

You Frighten Me Ray belongs to the following groups:

Core [C.O.R.E] and Light In The Darkness

You frighten me Ray
Your tinted glasses reveal
A naked man
The reflection is Rosy
Wasn’t that her name?

You been given me fruit fly for
Breakfast.
I see em floating Ray
I see em in my beer

Beer for breakfast and finished with
Mustard and pretzels and your sigh.
Ray,
You have a way though
I know
You walk over to me and show me how
To shoot
For dinner
Jack Rabbit
Fast and furious rabbits.
Like you are to me on a Saturday night
Ray
Once a month when you watch
The dancing show
And you look at me and I shake my head
No

But you take me with your fingers and
Suck me with your tongue
Ray it’s time to tell you
This livin here ain’t no fun

This is what I never dreamed of Ray
The Sands in Vegas never come our way

Desert land and the Taliban
You and your hate for all that is not you
Ray
I am done here
And we are through.

    Poor Ray got the boot. That’ll teach him. Maybe Rosy will take him in.

    I like the toughness of this one, Lina. The imagery is nasty, Ray is a louse, and the readers are cheering for the speaker for saying “good riddance to Ray”.

    Very interesting! You know, if I hadn’t read the description, I would have been telling Ray to run! It sounds like lunacy; but, what about love, given or lost, doesn’t?
