Black Poetry : Too Pretty to Forget

eve :

these young ladies are too reserved

howard :

we’ll try again

thanks ladies

we’ll be giving you a call

[opening a jar of strawberry preserves]

you want some?

eve :

no thanks

i just ate

howard :

thanks for going to Hardees for me

eve :

no problem

it was on the way

howard :

so what do you think about the girls we’ve seen so far

eve :

they’ve got plenty of curves

but not enough nerve

howard :

hmmm ……. i guess your right

[looking at the list]

surely there’s one group here that can give your party the entertainment it deserves

[at that exact moment]

a girl walks in

eve :

she’s a doll

nicole :

[Howard observes]

[looking at Eve]

eve :

nicole :

eve :

the rest of her girlfriends walk in

i guess not

well, whenever you’re ready

Nicole starts the music

[after a few minutes]

eve :

wow!!!!!!!!!

these girls are terrific

Eve motions to stop the music

[standing ovation from the rest of the groups in the room]

what’s the name of your group sweetie

nicole :

The Pussycat Dolls

[looks at Howard]

[Howard nods back]

eve & howard

 

The Pussycat Dolls, huh? Yes, sign them up. I enjoy how you fit all the pieces to this puzzle together so well.
