Flickering Tails and Eyes

Stand by the fridge, you are his best friend Your legs are like nectar, drawing his kisses He loves you, then leaves you with a wounded heart to mend Until hunger strikes again, he realises it's you he misses He looks at you with daring eyes Bright, shimmering, glowing with sin. Inside a shopping bag, he lies Taunting invisible fiends from within You can always tell where he's laid Usually where he knows is forbidden Clean sheets, best clothes before he's even bathed In the darkest, warmest corner, he thinks that he is hidden When your day at work has been so bad And your headache feels unbearable Come home with a sigh and spy your impatient lad He permits you to pamper him, the feeling's incomparable Before he once more becomes indifferent, Enjoy it while he allows you to, For he believes he is self sufficient, And we start again, this heavenly catch 22
