Have you ever noticed someone and couldn't take your eyes off of them?
I was sitting in our little neighborhood diner that sat about 40 or so and noticed a comely lady about to have dinner with a friend.
She was facing me, talking to her friend, about what I don’t know. I wasn’t close enough to hear.
Not having the ability to read lips, though I tried, I couldn’t tell what she was saying, couldn't take my eyes from her soundless lips.
I was so mesmerized by her silent, soundless lips it was difficult to look at her legs and ample breasts. and the lady next to me was talking on one of those damned cell phones
So I was confronted with those silent lips out of sync with that pesky phone lady and. the Japanese voice-over effect was softening any enjoyment I was getting from those lips, those lips.
She glanced my way once, crossed her legs then continued talking to her friend.
Probably told her about the pervert who was looking up her dress.
Rusty, that was very well written, and the snag at the end - masterful. I'm sympathetic, however, women who have pretty lips do fcinate me, but you add a new deminsion (?) when you try to lip sync at the same time. Youkain'tdodat... and not stare, man! You're probably lucky that you didn't get a new signal from that cell phone up side of your head. Gotta watch it, friend.

OH dear the ending was well done.... Enjoyable....
Have had a similar experience to Sara's...you brought the incident to mind. Excellent write. Guess men just can't help feeding their eyes, after all they get hungry too;-)...
I've had that happen to me. Once I was at dinner with my parents. There was a man sitting at a table kitty-cornered to me. He didn't stop watching me throughout the meal. I tried to ignore him, but everytime I looked up he was staring intently at me and my animated conversation with my parents. He got up and left the restaurant. A moment later the waitress came up to me with his business card. A note was written on the other side asking me to call him if I was interested. LOL...your story reminded me of that encounter. I never saw him again.
admiring a woman's lips is complementary ... looking up her dress is an entirely different issue ... it could be her friend was jealous you were mesmerized by her firned's face and perhaps told her a lie, unless you were staring up her dress also ... part of man's nature, i guess ... the art is doing it quickly ... staring is immature and unbecoming ...
A truly great and very interesting write, Rusty-friend. Being a woman, I always enjoy it when a man writes a poem like this, giving women an insight into their minds. Most of us women have had similar things happen, a man watches surreptitiously (or an out and out OGLE, like you did ... hee hee) and we wonder if it's because we're 'comely' or if we have spinach stuck between our front teeth.
Thank you for the peek inside.
