Just Like In The Handbook


When, after a few months of getting to know each other
The time came that they removed each other's clothing
He saw for the first time the tattoo
Of the gun on her thigh
Like that of a dance hall girl in a B western
And she saw for the first time the pithy adage
Tattooed across his right shoulder
"Fortune Favors The Prepared"
So she asked him
"Did you bring protection?"
And he replied
"Of course."
Then, she smiled and put her arms around him
Saying with a mischievous grin
"Looks like tonight's your night, Boy Scout."
