Publicly advertising he doesn't tickle her fancy. If that's no lie, then why seek him out surreptitiously? Her terms of endearment flow like honey off her lips, but what are they worth? Does she mean anything she says? Profound confusion blowing like smoke in his mind expands into a mushroom cloud. He endlessly wonders if her attraction is true. Her mixed messages traps him hook line and sinker in chin-stroking discombobulation. She relishes dangling her feminine wiles to him like a carrot. When he comes close to nibble at her charms, she p u l l s away. How cruel? She's a struck match that goes out in the frigid cold. He can't seem to make heads or tails of her words and deeds. What sort of game is she playing? It's perplexing.
