strum, strum, strum
by Maria Francescastrum, strum, strum,
I'm playing this accoustic guitar
strum, strum, strum,
because I'm very sensitive and disciplined
strum, strum, strum,
and very, very
strum, strum, strum,
deep.
strum, strum, strum,
I'm changing to minors and flats now,
strum, strum, strum,
because I'm very tortured and sad.
strum, strum, strum,
no, no, no,
strum, strum, strum,
don't try to save me
strum, strum, strum,
with affection or understanding
strum, strum, strum,
or free meals,
strum, strum,
or anonymous sex.
strum, strum, strum,
you're pretty,
strum,
no, you're beautiful,
strum, strum,
and I can see in your eyes
strum, strum,
that you're really sensitive,
strum, strum,
you really get me.
strum, strum, strum,
so, what's your name?
strum, strum, strum,
that's beautiful.
strum, strum, strum,
insert name here is so beautiful.
strum, strum, strum,
so do you live nearby?
strum, strum,
we should talk some more,
strum, strum, strum,
touch some more,
strum, strum,
drink some more,
strum, strum, strum,
break out of these limitations,
strum, strum, strum,
give ourselves to each other
strum,
freely,
strum, strum,
openly,
strum,
wildly.
strum, strum, strum,
so,
strum,
what did you say your name was?
strum, strum, strum,
that's beautiful. 12/12/2011 Posted on 12/12/2011

| Posted by George Hoerner on 12/12/11 at 06:57 PM This almost sounded, as I started to read it, like a Christmas poem. 'Strum, strum' etc. Then as I read I realized otherwise. And I have never made love to a woman whose name I didn't know. Thanks for the write. |
