swans and swanettes
all clamoured to dance
with the cygnet's undesirable
admission's prance
they didn't know that this male
was such a bragging exposure
and would strip their secrets
leaving them without composure
a waltzing of blackmail
was called in his revelation
the lovely feathered ones
trust divulged as intimidation
they only saw the charade
of this not so perfect ballroom chap
who'd tell all if they were unwilling
to twirl on his spin's tap
in fear lived the honeys
of his fox trotting troupe
as their private steps
would be made an open coupe
