Nay Say I

Nay say I
the cart 
will not  
be put 
before the horse
wisdom as old as time
I will therefore 
not
tacitly
or 
overtly 
tip the nod
in “bro” fashion
in support   
of your comments
about your wife’s cooking
not until 
I have dined at her table
and tasted her cooking 
which 
I am sure
cannot be
as bad 
as you say it is
I am absolutely positive 
that a woman
with legs and a figure like hers 
will cook like an angel.
