THE FOREGONE CONCLUSION OF THE KISS-ABOUT-TO-BE

Ahhh, yes...I see!
The kiss-about-to be!

The had-to-happen
that hadn't happened

as yet
but. . .

Ahhh, yes. . .
the "yet/but" bit.

That curious blend of
not yet & already.

The foregone conclusion
that hadn't concluded.

What could be put down to
basic human fear and

an inherent male stupidity.

So let's look for a scientific solution.

By brazenly placing the lips
nearer and nearer with a greater

degree of boldness and the radioactive
element of sheer desperation

we find that the lips of both
the male and female component

brought face to face
both breaths mingling

the kiss-about-to-be
has no choice but to

- happen.

Et voilΓ
