Not The Kind by Philip F De Pinto
As they say,
She was hot to trot.
I was not.
Despite many protestations on my part,
Still, would ply me with incessant libation;
Render me stewed as a sot,
So as to more easily hunker down the game, as they say,
So as to impress in me the fullness of her magazine.
And given none of the ammo
Will be of a kind or mind to practice contraception
What option but conception
Lay just around the corner?
Lest I be a poor sport about it and quickly abort,
Export the blasted imports, as they say,
Rather than gestate to full fruition
And birth and raise the lot
Of grim todllers on my own;
In the dark no less, and in a stupor,
Given she who was hot to trot
Is not the kind to stick around
Only leave a corpse behind.
