Your Seduction Technique Needs Work |

This is dedicated to D Q < !signature-->Your Seduction Technique Needs Work You say all the right words and in all the right way And I admit for a while you held my heart in sway But I don’t believe you really understand loves’ name Or that truth and fidelity are not some childish game For if you did you’d see the damage that’s been done And the words that killed love came from your gun How many times are you going to fire off truths’ blanks? Well I’m sorry Pal but this heart says not for me thanks You seduce each heart with the touch of a satin sheet And the way the ladies fall for your charms is quite neat But how many ladies do you think will wait in your line While you pretend innocence saying please one at a time If you attempt to keep more that one person on a string Sooner than later my dear friend a warning bell will ring And although no one expects commitment straight away We do expect loyalty that lasts longer than a single day Has no one explained that saying the words isn’t it all? Love has to have some real meaning before we will fall It’s okay to play the field and to be flirty and rather light But we’d be more willing if it wasn’t just for the night Women are the strangest creatures we dislike tasting lies There’s no sadder sight to us than when the truth dies A man who compliments us, and makes his words shine Admittedly he’s desirable but the truth would suit us fine This is just a friendly word of woman's wisdom, take advice For when you flatter us and flirt don’t put truth in a vice Try thinking what you really wish to be the result of this Are you after our hearts or just a light and flirty little kiss? For we don’t mind what lengths you go to if you want more If it’s only as a light little flirt or do you want to really soar But tell us your intentions, and try us please one by one For en masse we don’t shine, but individually we’re the sun Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning [This message has been edited by Marsha (edited 01-13-2001).] |

Kari love, thank you so very very muchly dear heart, and it’s all thanks to my wise and wonderful phoenix sisters. And I even quite like it, it’s not venomous, it’s not bitter, it’s just greatly relieving to get the weight off of my shoulders. A poetically perfect way to vent the negativity. Take care love as always Majestic Cock a Hoop Marsha James love, thank you very muchly with luck either it will strike a cord or it won’t but I doubt if he’d recognise himself. Who of us sees ourselves as others see us. Take care love Mushy Sven love, thank you dear heart as always a wonderful reply. Normally you know I’m as gentle as a kitten, but get me angry and my do my true colours show through love. And I never think I have much of a temper really. But I must have love, because it’s showing through now. Take care love Mushy Circe love, I know he’s not worthy of me, which is why he’ll never have the chance again. My eyes are open now and I’ll not be going down that road ever again. Thank you so much love Take care love Mushy LL love, thank you very much love. This is one of those poems that I needed to post. As I said to Sven I rarely get riled or angry, and if I do it’s not normally for long. However if I ever really get angry then it’s not wise to stand in my firing line. (Now that should have everyone fearing my wrath.) You’re quite safe everyone, just beware that you don’t yank my chain. Take care love Mushy Dyme, thank you this is one I enjoyed very much writing. Take care Marsha Paula love, very satisfying to write this. And you’re quite right he doesn’t deserve me, which is why he’ll never have me at his beck and call. I thought this was a far better way of getting my point across. Take care love Mushy Kethry love, thank you always dear heart. For making me see, for showing me light, for just being you. My sister of choice and of my heart who always sees the good in me, even when I can’t. Take care love Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Marsha, good for you love!! Don't let them get you like that. . . show them that it takes more than a smooth voice and pretty words. . . it takes a heart. . . --------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person.

You are on top of it. It is VERY disheartening to say the least to see so many hurt by things like this. You've said it well! |

Yes, there's nothing worse than a person who lies. This is strong and real. Thank you Marsha "Every man dies. Not every man truly lives." Braveheart Kathleen |

Sharon love, thank you, I agree actually, I think it should go out as a warning to all. A bit like health warnings on cigarettes, you know the danger and it’s up to you whether you listen. But at least you’ve been warned. Thank you so much love, I do appreciate you saying that it is a great job. Take care, love Mushy Sven love, you’re so right love, it takes a loving heart that thinks before it harms, one that is sensitive and trustworthy. As I said before, I shall take more care, I promise Thanks for your support always love, you are one of my favourite phoenix sisters and the wings of fire suit you more than almost anyone else I know. Take care, love Mushy WhtDove love, thank you so very very much love. As I’ve said I enjoyed writing this and I think that I did quite a good job. And I thank you for your comments and welcome you as a phoenix. My there will be a whole sky full soon. Take care, love Mushy Kathleen love, we can every single one of us bend the truth slightly, but there is a difference between saying something to save a persons feeling hurt, and an outright lie. It’s the taste of lies and the death of truth that I take exception to. Thank you muchly Kathleen, for seeing the point. Take care, love Mushy VAS, THANK YOU, and I mean it Take care Mushy Elise love, thank you and I hope he listens, I doubt it, but miracles do happen love. Take care Mushy Mark my friend, that’s probably the wisest course of action, as I’ve said before, I rarely lose my cool, but on the rare occasions it happens (and they are very rare) everyone knows to dive for cover. And it’s amazing you know, once someone has had an example of me losing my cool they never wish to see it again ever. (I can’t imagine why?) Take care, love Mushy Paula love do I thank you again, well I will eternally. And you know without my saying that I am thinking of you today. Take care of yourself love Love and hugs Mushy Doreen love, thank you so very much love. Take care, love Mushy Hope, thank you very muchly, I do value your visits and your comments Take care, love Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
