I hold her picture, printed from an attachment to an email.
Can't wait to finally hold my love,
after she told me how she was so lonely, loving and caring.
As for sex --
darn, all night for sure, to the moon over and over,
oral was her specialty!
We talked on the phone, between those meetings
she had with some guy she said was just a friend.
Guess that whitewashed motel was as reasonable place to meet.
I'm not worried, she always promised
her love would for me be so true,
unlike all the others who were mistakes every four years,
her illegitimate children photos look so precious.
Wow, at last my angel is here.
Only why is she spending so much time
in the back of that car? "Oh god?" she screams.
Good she's very religious. Guess the guy with her is too.
Ah, at last, we stroll into each other's arms.
I know she'll do everything she promised,
all those nasty little goodies we talked about on the phone.
Wait, it's morning , she's gone, did we really have sex? Sort of feels like it.
Oh darn, my wallet's gone. Guess I did get rear ended at least.
Oh nice, she left me a love note,
hey this is a bill for services rendered.
And it is good for four more years.
Author notes
My feeble attempt to see the failed nature of the politcal system of our society where dream date is the one we trust who dresses so well, a beauty winner that is anything but a dream date in terms of solving problems.

I would have said in a sparkling apple cider stupor:

or something like that
and Your wallet just fell into my lap
