Notes About The Poem

have you ever

Have you ever tried choking? He asked nonchalantly.
“No,” she said. *with a wrinkled nose of disapproval*

“Want to try it?” *His approach couldn't hide his excitement* 
“Ok,” she said, absent mindedly running her index finger over his lips.

“you  can  choke  me,” she added slowly,
 “if I can stab you repeatedly
 with the 7 inch stainless steel
 nail-file I keep under my pillow.”

<3 . Wow! SO evocative! Pregnant with such compelling possibilities. Could even be developed into a major motion picture! . . . This one's not 'quiet'. ;-) .
