Hot Case

by Quinlan L Gibson

In the world of higher education,

of English; it came from the department

Chairman; a distinguished, accomplished,

handsome man,

(and I looked for a ring, just curious)

and listening intently to him

he persisted to investigate and explore every

inch of my case.

I was rather turned-on for that hour.

Seduced with knowledge, by a man of

mind power; he sorted me out,

pieced me back together

I went to leave; now on the right path.

He looked over his broad shoulder and said,

"You are unique, but common"

To which I replied with a smile,

and thought to myself,

"Sir, you have no idea."

Nice last line there. I love how much this plays out like a great scene in an even better movie. Nice work.

Q. I just love your poems, but notice you haven't written, or posted, many in 2008. I want to encourage you, but instead I read all of your old ones. You are so talented. Consistently talented. And this one is further proof. "Sir, you have no idea." A great finish. Honest. And funny, too. All the best. - Bill
