It's always about you (RWP #118 digging)


As I fumble through the mess of magenta scarves

I find a picture of my favourite strumpet

She was a Middle English girl

With fine and flowing long blonde hair

She was nonpareil

Her custom of singing while fornicating was so delightful

With eyes the color of turquoise like a mist before me



I stand before the mirror naked and watch her dancing

In the shadows

Fine ferns silhouette her lithe frame

She can be furtive at times

But oh my love for her is undying

I go and cup her breasts, oh how pleasant

Soon we’ll leave on the motor-coach

    Fun. The motor coach does throw a monkey wrench into any attempt at the serious

    Lovely and idiosyncratic... also, I think you're the only person I've seen thus far to use "nonpareil" to mean "without peer" instead of candy. Unless that was a double entendre in the poem. ;)

    The last line was the clincher.Singing whilst
    f...ing must be a Mexican thing.Never heard of that one!

    Rall,
    Thank you and the last line was intended as a surprise. Now as far as the f...ing being a Mexican thing, could be if the music is just right.
    Cheers,

    Singing huh? I'd always be wondering if her mind was on the fornicating or the motor-coach!
