good gracious
where did all the men go

we dragged our tired fashionista asses out for a few drinks
and we collectively agreed
boys have taken over the planet
and all real the men are at home cutting their lawns

chivalry may be alive and well
but it inhabits the body of post teen terror
they look delicious
we can safely agree on that
and the sex while frequent
is...well ...fast

a drink brought to the table is all well and good
but when they come at the rate of a fighter pilot
dropping on targets
it becomes a tad annoying
now i know
some would cry for the chance

but really
is pacing such a terrible thing
my little black dolce and gabbana is off
before they can check the label
the goal is singular
inside ..inside now

and bless their self timed explosions
if they figure out that some of us
like grrls .....
just a little hint
do not share this information
at the wrong moment
or the entire thing is over
before u can slide off your blahniks

cheeky yes
charming at the best of times
but we collectively agree
a man that can take a bit of time
is always a treat

it was sadly like swatting flys
you can see them out of the corner of your eye
one smack sends them off for a few moments
but somehow they seemed to find their way back

then we sat back
martinis in hand
and watched as they work the room

they start at the top of the food chain
and work their way down as the night progresses

it would appear the the average time to say yes
is approximately
two minutes

they never wander the lounge on their own
but in small herds
we supposed that if a grrl says no to one
there may be someone else in the party to their liking
sort of like a traveling boutique of boys
target ...select...cull

however
if no selection has been made
within the allotted time
they head off to the next group

personal space must be fought for
one wonders if it is the primordial need to smell
that brings them so close
or if the drinks have made them near sighted

i decided to head home alone
some well deserved rest
while miss m
who took one home
though impressed with the piston like precision
wanted to come over for dessert
