His invite said “Come as you are”
which I thought was a bit bizarre.
High heels and a coat,
in spite of the note,
I brought since the walk was so far.
I wear neither panties nor bra
as I march up the stairs “in the raw.”
My only concern,
that made my cheeks burn,
was I’d end up a cause célèbre.
I approach and knock on the door.
As it opens, his eyes explore.
I gently chide
“I’ve nothing to hide.
Can’t you tell by what I wore?”
The smile on his face went askew
as I said “Over dressed, aren’t you?”
No one was about
as it turned out.
It ended up as party for two.
