The Dear Jerry Letter
Dear Jerry,
The way you talk down to me is amazing
I am obviously simple, so truly deserve it.
You are surely not this patronizing with everyone.
Just your wives and your children who do not know better.
I never understood before why you have had six wives.
Your courting ways are remarkable. You are a terrific date.
Paying for fancy dinners, and luxurious vacations.
I did not realize it was money your children could have had.
Now that I see you clearly, I feel I must release you.
Give you back to your parents who raised you
To only think of one person.
I hope they allow you to come back.
And will not hold grudges like your horrible ex-wives do.
Feel free to lose my number and my address
as you have pretended to lose your ex-wives' numbers.
I am relieved that I do not have to ask you for child support.
Thank you for never wanting children with me.
I guess six was enough for you.
Sincerely,
Your Ex-Wife who is No Doubt Joining the Horrible Club
