Dream Date - Perfect Woman - Didactic

Dream Date – Perfect Woman - Didactic I like a woman with a pulse Not too strong though Competition frightens me She should come from parents, (maybe two) Not hatched from an egg Skin of seasoned leather with cratered face If her leg is missing, left or right, that’s ok As long as she has one to hop away Crime should always be on her mind Stealing wallets and purses makes her perfect I don’t like to work so there must be a career girl lurking The perfect woman carries her own paper bags For her face while making love and robbing banks I want a girl who comes with her own card board box for two A place that we call home If she is psychotic that’s fine too A girl with stinky feet and monster tattoos will do And takes a butcher knife to bed when day is done I like adventure 11/21/14 "Didactic Poem" Poetry Contest

Earl, I've been looking for a man like you! No one else could appreciate these "assets" in a woman. :D Your poem is a hoot! (Though men have suggested I wear a paper bag, I haven't done so yet. I'm waiting for the urge to rob a bank.) And, hey, I have a pulse too! You have a wildly witty sense of humor and that's what I like most in a man. Love, Carolyn

Good morning Toquyen, I hope everything is good with you. I'm having second thoughts about the perfect woman. Life in a card board box might be fun at first but sooner or later it will fall apart. Maybe you are right. The county jail is a start. Have a great day. Take care. Earl

Good morning Jan, Thanks! I hope you enjoyed my invention. I forgot to mention; lots and lots of personality. She can go far in life with 4 or more of them. Have a great day. See ya! Earl
