Sweet talk – Elk Jr

It’s been a week of sweet talk

Rush, hurry, flock
Time goes by, painful tick tock
Hear a key turn, snap goes the lock
Eyes & ears, like a hawk

Rewind the clock,

Her retorts, hurt and mock
About a shirt, dinner, in laws and a sock

I smile, don’t want her to walk
If it gets to me, will I balk?
Emotions surge, pause, take stock
Screech, halt, people gawk
Bottled up, and caulk
A few punches and a whack

Distribute pain, ad-hoc
Revived, defibrillator shock

Call from her friend, Jacques?
News flash, am no impervious rock

So alike cheese and chalk
Jack and the bean stalk

Deadlock, lever up ball cock
Its been a week of sweet talk…
Just a week of sweet talk…
Yet another week of sweet talk
