Difficult women knowing smiles meaningful hugs
laughing as they pull you onto the dance floor
fill you with doubt make you laugh at yourself.

When did you become so awkward
your senses confounded by a warm touch
your grasp of reason loosened with slick emotion?

One way or another they soon come at you
wonder why you turn passive aggressive
it’s that or jail for a male you tell them.

You think maybe they want a show of strength
get tough fight them off pin them down
it’s the last resort of a loser it’s how they win.

Maybe they had no choice to begin with.
