After two large glasses of red wine
and an evening of jokes,
his arm around her in a dark booth,
he casually sighed, “Well,
that’s one more capsule
we can add to our health store list”
“Meaning?” she asked
“Laughter,” he said
“Not love?” she pouted,
crossing her arms under her breasts
“Oh, sure, love, of course
Laughter, 500 milligrams”
