Alone With a Naked Girl
That lonely night
My studious head was bent before a reading lamp
When a faint noise from my door
Heralded a beautiful damsel in
Methought I saw a stark naked lady
But no, she was clothed with beckons of lust
The magical moment drown all my vows
I've sworn never to be a player again
On sacred alters
But who knows if this is just a prefect crime
Some temptations are not to be resisted
I pulled her close
Feeling her warm flesh in mine
And her breath hissing through my nostrils
My impulse doubled
This path I'm beginning to travel
May lead to heaven or hell
But that is a worry for another day
Her red lips must not go unkissed
*Pranpapan grangaga gban*
(Sound of falling plates)
A rude noise startled me
Alas
IT WAS JUST A DREAM
Rioting rats stumbled on my unwashed plates
I've learnt how to keep my food safe
They will pay for robbing me of my sleep again
What is this wetness I feel on my trouser?
Who is that girl I saw in my dream?
O, my crush!!!!
The next time I see her
I will pretend not to care no more
For what better choice has a country boy
Who loves a girl that needs those with billions in banks
One day when the wind of many seasons must have blown
I will go to bed
Thinking no more about her
Dreaming no more about her
With my happiness found intact with another
