how's your love life?

i see my lawyer friend
jimmy
in the super market.
he's wearing a new designer suit
and buying
caviar and lobsters.
i see bottles of champagne
in his cart
along with
expensive butter from ireland.
hey,
he says.
hey, i say back. how are you?
doing spectacular, he says.
it looks like he's
had some work
done on his eyes and his
hair is jet black.
good, good. i say.
yup,  business is booming
with covid.
just bought a new mercedes
the other day.
i did six divorces this week,
all on zoom.
the virus and lockdown is
a gold mine
for people breaking up.
who can stand to be with
anyone for 24 7
for nine months?
i'm saving up for a little
villa in florence. you'll have
to come visit when this whole
thing ends.
so how are you? how's your love
life?
wedding bells perhaps?
