reverse psychology

             don’t ask me not to
           to try and get me to do 
           I can see right through 
        clearly a catch twenty two             
        oh my  that negligée’s new

Lin Lane September 17, 2024 at 5:33 PM Your transparency is not usually evident. I feel a bit like a voyeur after reading this one. lol David Kavanagh September 18, 2024 at 3:21 AM I think the negligée was always the insurance card, once I seen through the reverse psychology lol, I was hooked one way or another lol! Cheers David
