You Bet

“I’m gonna burn the house down Tuesday night.”
“OK, sweetie.” Her eyes are still drama-glued
On girly boys, Korean stagesters with
Their perfect teeth and sleeky hair all swept
Back, Reaganesque and Brylcreemed shiny best,
Trying to impress their little skinny loves.

“Maybe I’ll do it Monday – better yet.”
“That sounds pretty good to me, you bet.”
