Chat Up Lies




I don’t wish to stare

   

but don’t want to blink either ..


 

Through some irrational fear


of losing a single moment of you ..


 

And while I don’t wish

  

to teach my granny to suck eggs ..

 


These words, as an icebreaker,

    

at singles events, bus stops or parties etc ..


 

Tend to work far better

  

than anything else, I have tried to date ..

You know these lines really made me smile and I thank you for that. Isn’t always easy to break the ice. It takes courage, particularly if you happen to be shy. I started to recall some that I’ve had in the past like, your dreams have come true, I’ve arrived, yes no kiddin. And the Adonis in Malta flashing his cash and his white teeth and shoes. The champagne was on ice. Pleased you changed the title, I read earlier. It didn’t fit. Have a lovely day my friend.

Pleased the chat up line in your poem was one that worked for you. The one that worked for me was at opposite ends of a bar. He asked if I’d like to share his drink. He needn’t have said anything. His eyes had already done the trick.

I never seem to be able to find the right words. They escape me or I fumble and bumble.

Great read.

Now why didn't I ever think of using that line, mine usually was, "What is your sign" to which I normally received a response like...It's "Stop" or "Do not enter". Nice one my friend.
