flirt

a married man

flirted with me today
he didn’t act very married
but then, having so few married friends
i’m not sure i know how married people
are meant to act
less single perhaps…?

he didn’t bother telling me
maybe it slipped his mind
to mention it to me
maybe he wore a ring
i’m not used to making a point
of noticing such things

but when our mutual friend
interrupted our dynamic
to casually mention
the wife
i wanted to hide
so did this guy, i think.
he stopped flirting with me
abruptly

i like flirting because
flirting is like
mentally wrestling
unfortunately those that
wrestle with me
tend to have
(unmentioned) girlfriends

and though i may be bi
i’m not into couples, pairs
i prefer apples actually
they make me think of
eden and eve and temptation

she was totally misrepresented you know
they got that story allll wrong
seriously!
it wasn’t sin she was after
it was knowledge and change

they say that
curiousity kills cats
i guess thats why mother nature
gave them
nine lives

and maybe thats also why
i’ve always felt
that little bit
feline.
