A Woman Approached By a Man

At first Sheila hesitates,
Then, towards Bruce gravitates.
After all, she’s still a Miss;
The fears of Madam dismiss…

A lady gives chance to a man,
He spoils it, proclaims his bun
She’s now qualified to shout
And end it with a “Get out!”
Now, rules of decorum flout
Tell Bruce to his face “Lout!”
Now licensed to at Bruce glare;
If Bruce touches her, then flare:
Out like radio the thing blare
Or Bruce ask “So, you could dare?
Or all the while Bruce talks, bad stare!
