This is hilarious, in a cynical way, but very entertaining. I love your scheme and the dry humor. Entertaining intro, and very powerful ending. Love your work, can't wait to see more. No improvement needed, perfect as is.

What an enjoyable read! I laughed and smiled all the way through. Sometimes we all need an escapist jaunt. This provided that for me. Very well done, indeed.

Ah, funny, Irish. I chuckled all the way through it. Of course you know the poem is not free verse, even if life is. It's a great little rhymner. "vault like a herd of pregnant turtles." That's fast, Irish! LOL!
"Brace yourself, Ethel it's almost prime!" How romantic is that! Too funny, Irish!
"And I have this dream of a virgin girl, Who lets me change her entire world." Ah, you guys are all alike. LOL! Sorry if any of this was meant to be serious, but I thought it was a hoot. Great fun, Irish.

    What a sweetheart you are! It was one of those days, and I was in that frame of mind, so I quit trying to repair a waterline, and sat down at the desk. You're right, this was all humorous, and the girl was just pretending to be innocent. Thank you for your generous review, and the stardust!

You know what I like about this, it sounds like something an Irishman would write. Whimsical and cute. I like the Wal Mart line....you rhyme it with it, which is not a sin..but I am so oblivious to all of this, it is all I could see.

Ah, what passion, how she takes it! (I must admit) ??
I croon and groan, while she lies there and fakes it.

    Hi Betty, thank you for the 'Exceptional' rating! I am humbled!
    It was one of those days when nothing seems to go right, so I took a break from repairing a broken water line and turned on the seductive screen, and this is what came out. Thanks again for all of the stars, irish
