Suckers

His love had blind tendrils
that wriggled along -
they clung and clung.

She pressed autumn leaves
and  scraps of his erotica.
She tucked his damp poetry
away for later.

He came with chocolates
wrapped in a low-minded lust,
yet with a heart to trust;
a slippery organ
he claimed to be true.

Though she did not appreciate
that sucking noise he made
when he said:-
I love you.
