Cruel Truth

Still in his usual drunken state,
Marvin realized he had forgotten
To pick up the Hello Kitty cup for
His wife's birthday.  So, inventive,
He tried the next best thing.
He took a plain coffee cup from
The cupboard and with a marker
Wrote on it the best he could.
It didn't quite get the reaction
That he'd hoped for.  Somehow,
Howdy Bitch didn't quite make it
And got his drunken ass kicked 
Out the house.  It's a cruel truth
That you can't please everyone.
Also a cruel truth that his own dog
Won't even share the old blanket
In the dog house on a cold night.
