Girl at the perfume counter

She asked me

would you like a sample?

I didn’t

I told her

no

thanks.

As I walked

away she asked

why not?

I told her

I don’t

want to smell like

date

****

she laughed

and sprayed me

in

the

******* face.

I’ll smell

like an *******

for the rest of the day

But she will still

work at a *************

perfume

counter
