People Who Feed Seagulls [The ‘Skank-Nasty’ Poem]

~ a conversation with the only man I’ve never seen upset ~

by Paul Tristram / April 30th, 2023

“But, she Promised to Close-Down
her ‘OnlyFans Page’
if you’d be her boyfriend…
she’s stunning, and you said No?”
“Promiscuous people are ‘Just’
for ‘Fucking’… not ‘Courting’
… save your ‘Heart’ and [Real]
‘Money’ for the… Decent Ones.
I like Confident and Beautiful
Women… Emotionally Mature…
with ‘Admirers’ not… ‘Options’.
Nothing turns-me-off quicker…
than ‘Childish Little Games’
… and, I stopped leaping into bed
with [Selfish] ‘Playas’ [Yuck!]…
when I Elevated ‘Spiritually’
… and, started to catch a whiff
of the stench coming off their Souls.”
