To Die For

Until I met my lucious lover I was ambivalent about having another. My last affair was bittersweet. My arcane pain I kept discreet. This one however is quintessence. My desires awoken from quiescent. Although I'm flamboyant, he makes me shy. An intercessor I'll need, I know a guy. He'll tell him how tactile I can be. Sweet, loveable, passionate me. If unsuccessful, I will consume libation. Become an oblation by immolation.

Now Arthur, don't you think 1,000 is enough?? You make those of us here who care for your welfare nervous. Especially me, a nurse...

We were quiet at work today. When I read it out to my midwifery colleagues, we had a good laugh. When they asked me what it was about, I had to admit I didn't know.
