It was annulled the next morning
by an attorney dressed as Elvis.
A Marilyn Monroe-a-gram phoned your mum
to explain what had happened
and as a troupe of dancing girls
tidied our hotel suite,
cleared away the champagne glasses,
mopped the floor by the jacuzzi,
we decided not even to exchange numbers.
