Abstain

She said that she was abstaining
From sex
I flexed
Laughed out loud
Told her that abstinence
Is only the distance
Between your last and
Your next
Perplexed
She asked why I was smirking
At that moment
I knew that my charm was working
I replied
What you call abstaining
I call foreplay
Vexed
She replied
No way
Foreplay is the distance
Between getting that fever in your head
Then getting your head in that fever
….I knew right then that she was a believer
So I kept fore-playing and she kept abstaining
But by the next morning neither one of us was complaining
