For many it is the challenge; not the prize.
She waits for the kingdom’s apparent 6’3” heir
He percolates on the sway of her hips and the fragrance of her hair
It’s the door of a dalliance many have entranced
She preens and mentally awards him her perfect pair
He capitulates and warms to her like a Frigidaire
Prepared to steal away her special recompense
Leaving
her empty and with limited reserve
