Les Liaisons Dangereuses

sometimes life may seem a little quiet
gazing at the ocean and sunsets
in cool spring breeze nippy weather

sometimes stealing sprigs of yesterday today and tomorrow
from rain drenched boughs on walks around the burbs
may seem a little dull and then one may entertain thoughts
thoughts of swirl and whirl in foreign exotic exciting locale
and then one remembers something like this

'Les Liaisons Dangereuses'

the quintessential quadrupled French knife twist topped with
inverted overted perverted introverted extroverted
somersaulting rollicking sinister sexual politiking

and thinks

'not for this little black duck'
