a formal occasion


um...

and humming
things too.
it's what you
do when no one
is watching.

brows knitted
to your
forehead, you're
interested in
dessert. but first
you'd like
some more coffee.

and I'd like
the check please,
if I could?

you look good
in your rich-boy
shoes and I
need to be
excused
if it's
alright.

you have bad
manners,

but
the sex is so
ungodly polite.

    stellar

    Oh man, I loveeee this . I'm so glad Jason told me to come by. I love the flow, and the 'hey waiter, bring me more coffee' almost nonchalant attitude. This is good stuff zillion. . The last two stanza, just zapped my finger tips . Me gusta lo mucho!

    -joan.
