ABOUT GOTHAM HORNS AND
THE WORD HE SPELLED RIGHT!
Though
he caught her arms,
He
was worried of germs!
Her
sneezes were the alarms,
And
thus he regretted his charms!
Gotham
Horns would not otherwise have been so lackadaisical on a date. Three hours
went by but he never kissed the perfect lips he so much praised the other day.
Her noisy sniffles distracted him. The fact that she had a severely deviated
nasal septum did not help matters because with the other nostril blocked, she did
breathe in through her mouth. The odour of that air was poisoned by infected
tonsils.
He is a much superior artist when it
comes to romance and ‘amazing’ is the adjective he has earned over a span of time
like the web-spinning super-hero!
Sir, it is you
who came before?
You are part of
our folklore!
The girl won’t
be seen once more,
We noticed that
since days of yore!
The
waiter of his favourite restaurant had however ceased being amazed with him,
benumbed with too much regularity. The song he sang was meant less for any
glory than it was in celebration of the generous tip that happened to be always
his due.
You cannot be
truer than a hundred bucks!
It is the day
more than your song that sucks!
Is it only I who
can see those sitting ducks?
I commiserate
with the ones I called schmucks!
A
cool breeze came across the lake on the waters of which the ducks sat almost motionless.
It made Eleanor shiver more than the dry leaves of the trees in view.
Won’t you come
closer because I feel the cold?
I haven’t told
you but you are very bold!
Within your
rippling muscles I want to fold!
Isn’t it me you
so dearly want to hold?
Thus
Gotham put down his coffee cup and gingerly advanced his hand to meet the
smallish, tender and so much pretty hand that immediately clasped his one with
growing affection. That very moment he felt the gentle febrile warmth, wet and
sticky with a little bit of greasy sweat and the mucus rubbed off her nose and thus
he fought with the irresistible desire to withdraw his hand to prevent the
incessant transfer of flu-causing viruses.
Three
weeks later, Gotham Horns spelled ‘lackadaisical’ rightly and won a bet!
