"EASY"


She had a nice neat arse,
But like a farce the label
on her blue and straight
legged jeans read “EASY”.
And like the proffer
of some special offer
I knew the label lied.
‘cause when I tried;
She sighed;
And turned me down.

  4. Ah, nothing good is easy, right? Well, with a few exceptions, perhaps...like your one shot, James. Makes its point easily, and with a smile.

  9. Witty and fun! Someone in advertising should pick this up, but I guess it's only in poetry and writing like yours can be this truthful!

    By the way, if I haven't said it, I'd like to htank you for that compelling photo used as a prompt on Sunday before last. I so loved it!
