Return to Cups

Queen of the Whirled
... a dick in the Cuisinart kind of day

Try as she might -- and she’ll certainly try

Her blender blades were jammed from the fruit of this guy


He clung tenaciously to her sharp metal bits

Despite the quantity of ice the queen threw in the mix


He’s the last thing she needs, which makes him the first

Against all vision and reason only he slaked her thirst


Here’s to the Queen of the Whirled -- Kingdom of a mind sweet & fine

Benevolent grace never shows here and the dance of life can’t keep time


Hot, humid and sexy, her furtive disguise

Yet behind innuendo her fragile soul hides


He flexes and beckons, outmaneuvers impasses

His tongue quite a veteran at outwitting the masses


She’s precarious sport, an irresistible test

Level 10 of a game he’s determined to best


Here’s to the Queen of the Whirled -- Kingdom of a mind sweet & fine

Benevolent grace never shows here and the dance of life can’t keep time


He claims sincere desire in winning over her heart

While she’s severing all lines to keep them apart


She tells him he’s too good and it isn’t a lie

Fear drives her to aloof and alone over giving love a try


Stillness punctuates the lesson of each man

Each relationship a payment on a life’s layaway plan.


Here’s to the Queen of the Whirled -- Kingdom of a mind sweet & fine

Benevolent grace never shows here and the dance of life can’t keep time
