It’s not a fear it’s a know,
we won’t be able to resist

as it begins with a kiss
all tongues lips and hips

but just like the rest
we’ll both add to our lists

with a lopsided smile
and a flick of the wrist and

you’ll want me to say sorry
for blunting your knife

with my back. So…
thanks but no thanks.
