TopsyTurvy

He swaggered in
man on the scene
den of ladies amped up
slow day for men

His leisurely walk
encouraged silent conversation
he would prove to be the one and only
welcomed distraction of their day

All women facility you know
doesn't see much by way of 'action'
every now and then the lone repairman
presents a pseudo-challenge of sorts

Knowing his entry
would be spectacular; in some ways
he had already scored
all eyes on deck

The 'twist' however came about
when this repairman, on this particular day
was himself enticed by one of them
questioning his own person

He double checked his motives
how could the bate become the prey?
this posed an unwarranted occasion of mistrust
the 'woman' of his interest smiled...

For this had not been her first.

    a good smiling opening, swaggered life, love is in the air with a cool breeze. the man of the moment winks and blinks as the ladies stare whilst body language sings communication across the day. where is this place, i will go and get my coat the captain salutes in more ways than one i am thinking, there is no eyepatch. i keep thinking of movies! ah yeah the bait soon finds itself wiggling. a good poem
