90 Gym Memberships and 1 Espresso
An English Sonnet

The Summit drips and hangs along the wall,
A sign for those who want to solve those hips.
I'm busy with my coffee-jamming call
And have no time to think about those lips.
What stands against me is a lack of time,
As others tell me that it sails away.
Indeed, I've sat for half an hour in rhyme
Attempting label on an Angel's sway.
-
But never have I known the Angel's touch;
I always bat the feathers 'fore they land.
I am allergic to the soft and such;
I am a parry to the fittest hand.
Welcome to cowardice– Don't think we've met:
I am the knife to every woman's net.
