A Little Bit Tipsy

A little bit tipsy
and a lot of flirty
makes for outrageous talk
and situations that create
impropriety,

Women want to remain above
reproach while having a good time,
They don't want to raise any red flags
or "tow the line",

Clouds of suspicion can cast shadows
on their lives, especially with unplanned
liaisions in the middle of the night,
Some men are cads and don't have reputations
to lose, but  confused, inebriated women may
instigate actions that are obtuse,

Altered egos takeover and the rest becomes
history, in a haze of consciousness,
lives could suddenly turn into a mess,
victims of rash  decisions get created,
panic sets in, and lives get obliterated.
