"lust County Fair"

Standing in line, I saw you over there. Purchasing your ticket to the "Lust County Fair." Your lips were locking at the County kissing booth.. Looking more like "exchanging of the tongues" than just a smooch. On the ferris wheel, your hands where all over her. You could be "her father" you old ugly buzzard. In the "petting farm", I see your fittin' right in.. Amongst the other swines and swindlers bathing in their sins. I hope you feel justified with your so-called young date. I would not give you the time of day even with a "mail in rebate!" You came over, pounding and kicking away at my door. Seething with anger, no rain checks this time bud; it's over!

I know you said this was in fun but it it is filled with anger. I love this piece because I can see the eyes following this person who had no clue he was watched and then for the rejection at the end. Wonderful imagination.
