A Ramshackle Faith

If the moonless night
slept, sheepish it'd be.
Strange, fresh dude not cool 
chit chat about him
awkward and painful. 

Where is a loo
or rear window 
to crawl out of, 
I'm so tempted.

Bragged he loathed
his girlfriend.
He purred, one

more date.
I said, 

no.

I really like that you had her say NO at the end. That was clever way to end this kind of date!! Congrats on the winner list, Eve.

You painted a portrait of that fresh dude brilliantly Eve. No second date for the boaster. All the best.

Wise girl! Who wants a date with someone who is in love with himself? Great writing! Good luck, Eve!
