Brad Pitt Sells You His Doppelganger’s Home

My body double lived next door to me,
in a house I built for him that looks nearly identical
to mine, except that it has blue eaves instead of green.
I sent him to the grocery store the other day and he
came back with a girlfriend and a winning lottery ticket
which he insisted on keeping.
He was useful once, when I needed him for a scene in
a movie, full frontal as they say, and occasionally for
dental appointments.
But one day Angelina commented that he was more helpful
around the house — sure, I had him do my chores on occasion —
and my dentist noticed that he still had his
wisdom teeth, and things just weren’t working out.
So now I have a house with blue eaves and no tenant.
You know, you do look a lot like he did, which is good because
I could use someone to eat my broccoli for me,
and I can recommend a good plastic surgeon.
I should tell you, though, that the garden in the back won’t need
fertilizer for some time, and that you won’t get to
sleep with Angelina even if you want to.
