***
Sizing up the competition,
observing dance, dress and ammunition
“on the prowl” is her mission
hoping for a transition
rising up in social position
not really love, acquisition
skipping the tradition.
Carefully adjusting her foxy wrap
hands moving slowly from her lap
candidates seen ripe for her trap
crossing the floor while eyes adapt
watching her liquid movement map
she knows how to lure a chap
all settled with a strong nightcap
***
Fancy meeting you at the pub today and Saturday!
Nicely done!
