and the beat goes on

[plural]

went out to the pool hall
to work on my french homework tonight

No Bounce

had a couple of drinks
met a friends daughter for the first time
not my type and too young (18ish) but quite cute
I am sure she will be quite something in a few years
once college has matured her some

however
I met another redhead
[yes it is a genetic weakness]

No Play

damn stunning she was
wavy hair just off her shoulders
slender but curvacious body

white flowing blouse
comfortable jeans
glowing smile

mmm mmm damn
I could eat that peach for days

No Bounce

We talked for a bit
but I had to get on with my work
so I got digits
said I would call her over the weekend
and excused myself

got almost all of my work done

No Play

certain parts of it were tedious beyond compare
I mean
seriously
I think I would rather have bamboo splinters
jammed into uncomfortable places and set on fire
then some of these exercises

but
I did them anyway of course

I just kept thinking
over and over in my head

"Of all the days, to give up mainlining industrial chemicals ..."

No Bounce, No Play

No Bounce, No Play
