OLIVE & THE LION he so lion-like I feel like a nervous zebra in my black&white stripped dress he looks upon me as prey...I pray move slowly away he stalks me across the Serengeti living room I spill champagne down my cleavage I chat to ( and hide behind ) a baboon-like man Lion licks his lips he lets an oyster slip down his throat in one...gulp! he spears an olive on a cocktail stick I Olive can only stare Lion sits on the arm of my armchair "Well...well...look who we have here?" I startle try to bolt away his eyes pin me to the chair too terrified to say "No!" I say "YES. . !" What am I saying! we have *** in the upstairs loo outside some curses a pool of ***** outside the loo door I step daintily over it his eyes track other prey growls "See ya around babe!" I cry into my dry martini...shaken...stirred ***** running down my left leg
