just slap me, please

she pulls me
aside and says hey.
enough.
just kiss me and be done
with this
dame, this babe,
this broad,
this catastrophe that you
crazily mistook for
love. so I do.
I kiss her, i
put my arm around her waist,
I listen and absorb
the wisdom of what she
says. just slap me,
throw a cold glass of
water into my face,
I tell her,
if I even begin
to go off the deep
end ever again.
I have the ice water
ready, she says.
no problem.
