A Piece of Bass

You shoot me a five cent smile Sitting on your million dollar ass Forgive me if I seem hostile Your bait didn't hook this Bass I've played the game of two I'll just stand in my barrel of booze If it's all the same to you I have a vat of Vodka to infuse

haha. this sounds more like frat boys instead of a high class bar, and it feels like two guys having a showdown on who can drink the most. did i get that right? It's a very fun read!! another 7!

Maurice A poem that gets right to the point with a little humor added. Don't take the bait if it means getting trapped. Thank you for the nice comment on my My Nicknames poem.

What a witty write, Maurice! I don't blame Leon for not taking the bait. People who are unlucky in love sometimes turn to booze or other ways to alleviate their depression. I'm just used to going it alone. (No, the Halloween poem wasn't meant to be shaped like an owl.) Love and blessings, Carolyn
