i used to be a fun guy, really

i tell her,
holding her hand. you might
not believe this
but i used to be fun.
i used to like
to do things, go places,
enjoy life
in all its strange and wonderous
ways.
i'd be the first one on
the rollercoaster,
or to jump
out of a plane,
or to suggest Indian food
for dinner.
she looks at me,
and pulls her hand away.
really? she says.
so what happened?
where should i start, i tell
her.
Donna, Stacy,
or Dianne?
