i want my money back

you again, really?
the gypsy fortune teller
says to me
as i go in to get my
money back.
everything you
told me was wrong,
i tell her.
sorry, she says, no
refunds, and points
to the sign
above the door.
you said she was going
to be the love of
my life.
my soul mate.
she ended up being
the worst person i've
ever known,
an evil lying witch.
the gypsy shrugs, my bad,
she says.
you can't get them all
right. i had a bad day,
like you never made
a mistake?
geeze marie.
tell you what,
i'll give you a free
reading today,
no charge.
have a seat, relax, let
me go get my new crystal
ball,
it just arrived by UPS.
amazon.
haven't even opened
the box yet.
