What a Drag

Control your jealousy; I convey.
I am not cheating.
I relate.
I am helplessly in love.

Why do you not trust me?
I ask.
I am not a cheat; I blab.
I am helplessly in love.

Please give me my space.
I say.
I am not a w*o*e!
I communicate.

I am helplessly in love.
I state.
With you
Okay!

Yes indeed, Verlena! I myself have been happily married for 35 years. But I adore women. All women. And I am an insatiable flirt (for those who are receptive). But I have never strayed. But innocent flirtatious exchanges keep us young, don't they? Keep it up, Verlena. Explain it to your partner. And stay young! Peace...Sam
