Sample Poem
Unhooked
Hook-up (Amanda's Pinch)
Two sailors seeking
girls inclined to kiss and pet;
I kissed my choice
until my lips looked botox filled.
My girl had double
D's that suited well
until I bumbled with
the bra!
Until I bumbled with
the bra
my every effort
seemed to work out swell.
She was prob'ly put
off that I was so unskilled.
That was an undone
date that I just can't forget.
