Walking by the car lot
He stops in his tracks Appreciating her form from afar The wide-track tires And sleek, rounded fenders He admires the aerodynamic slope of the hood, and imagines what is underneath He quickly thinks of his bank account And battles with his desires He considers what his friends will think When they see him driving her How their jealous stares will linger Contemplates the pleasure of Driving her And decides he must have her A quick word with the dealer To let him know he is interested Without coming on too strong Then he asks for a test drive Sitting down in the driver’s seat He mutters a word of greeting His eyes aglow with delight A turn of the key breaks the ice And the engine begins to rumble He can smell the sweet tang of the leather seats And is intoxicated with her power He is hooked He leaves the dealership With a promise that he’ll return |
Walking down the street
He stops in his tracks Appreciating her form from afar Her graceful legs And sleek, rounded hips He admires the aerodynamic curve of her blouse, and imagines what is underneath He quickly thinks of his wounded heart And battles with his desires He considers what his friends will think When they see him dating her How their jealous stares will linger Contemplates the pleasure of Loving her And decides he must have her A quick word with the woman To let her know he is interested Without coming on too strong Then he asks her out for coffee Sitting down in the café booth He mutters a word of greeting His eyes aglow with delight A quick joke breaks the ice And the date is underway He can smell the sweet aroma of her perfume And is intoxicated with her beauty He is hooked He leaves the date With a promise that he’ll call her |
