Promiscuous Passions Pretense

Promiscuous passions pretense

Promiscuous passion puts on a pretense
as he pridefully tries to prove his physical prowess

Promiscuous passion presumptuously pursues prey
by projecting his powerful persona on the perfect person

Promiscuous passions asks would you dance with me please
as he pours profusely personal admiration along with the drink

Promiscuous passion persistently says you are so beautiful
but it's only a pretense to persuade her to provide permission

Promiscuous passion promises perpetual devotion proclaiming 
permanence of passion as a possibility (but remember the pretense)

Promiscuous passions pretense provides positive proof so she falls for it
promptly providing privacy... so predictable.

Promiscuous passions pretense plan works perfectly mission complete so...
promiscuous passion promptly puts on his pants and parts ways permanently

Leaving the pitiful prey to ponder what happened and how to proceed with this perfectly predictable predicament.

Impressed with this poem on "P" ... all of the other 25 letters watch out ... lest John writes a poem on ya ;) A fun write here, intelligently written, with a message behind it all. Lots of gals falling for the same trap ... lots of guys lacking some class.
