A Foster Dad's "Lament" (by Greg Holden)

She used to love me.

Then Simon came to our home.

She still loved me.

But she did love Simon.

Then Watson came to our home and challenged our love.

Watson had a special place in her heart.

But she still loved me.

But not by much.

Now Brighton is here and now I don't exist.

We need to find a home for this boy.

Competition is great.

When you know you don't stand a chance

you step aside.

Now her love is Brighton.

Does anyone want to adopt a fat guy that has a lot of love to give?

That would be me.
