One Track Mind

I think this one has been up before - oh well, I had to do something or you would all forget me (not you sweetie!)

I could tell the kind of girl she was

From the plain way that she dressed.

No frills, nothing fancy

Just Jeans and Cotton Vest.

Careful not to patronise

I asked her for a date,

Telling her she seemed the type

To whom I could relate.

I met her primed for conversation.

She turned up wearing black,

Her dress was slit way up the thigh

And plunged deep at the back.

I talked of Hegel, Marx and Kant,

She flirted with her eyes.

My one- sided conversation was

Punctuated by her sighs.

Later, in her apartment,

she lay down on the bed for me.

Dressed in satin lingerie

She looked a fantasy. I said

Let’s analyse our motivations

She screamed "You’re so unkind."

"I’m feeling really horny but

You only want me for my mind."

Thanks,
Emilie

Hahahah!..... My dear Ian, you just can't judge a woman by the way she dressed!

Okay, you should have changed your tune when she showed up with that sexy outfit that says "She's horny." Enjoyed this write indeed!

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
