Donna DeBonise by Dan Provost

The first love of my life…
I would suck
in my fat when
she walked by with
her zit-faced best friend
Laura Stark.

I asked her out in 7th and
8th grade…

Her, being the master of
my seventh-grade erections…

Then my eight-grade
frustrations since I
had no idea what
masturbation was.

Both times she thought
about it, then told
her pimply sidekick
to tell me
no…

I haven’t been the
same since
I guess that’s a bad thing.
