' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' 'Waiting For Her Unlit Cigarette To Be Lit(For Scarlett)
Her eyes prowled
across the crowded room
her interest pouncing
like a panther
upon the man
who had just entered
'...well you walked in to the party...
like you were walking into a yacht...'
Carly Simon's voice
acting as a soundtrack
to his every
movement.
'Mmmmmm! '
she mmmmmm'd
humming to herself
Rodgers & Hammerstein's
SOME ENCHANTED EVENING
(corny as it may seem)
'Grrr! '
she growled
as she padded
stealthily across the floor
'Hi handsome! '
she made herself
known to him
waiting for her unlit
cigarette to be lit.
Her scarlet smile
lighting up her face.
'God, but I could just
...eat you...up! '
