He brought out his guns
to show his strength
She was not impressed.
He flexed with all his might
to show dominance
She was not impressed
He boasted
of frivolous deeds
She definitely was not impressed
He pumped himself up
in front of her
She yawned and said 'Not impressed'
He flexed his Alpha skills
till it hurt
She sighed, unimpressed
He told her of his stamina
going on and on
She rolled her eyes, so very not impressed
He postured Like a peacock
with elegance
She shook her head still unimpressed
He wept like a child
when old yeller died
She held him in her arms
finally impressed.
Don't ask why I wrote this. I am trying to write a story for a prompt and this kept popping in my head. If I didn't write it down, I fear it would have blocked other ideas floating around in my mind.

Let's Don't Do This
"I just can't do this anymore..." "Do what?" What can't you do? Put gas in your own car? I swear to God you make me take care of everything, don't you? You know I'm on my way to work right now but that never stops you from bothering me, does it?"

I like how it turns at the end, showing that real strength isn’t in showing off but in being genuine and vulnerable.
I am impressed with poem. I glad you shared it!!!
Oh... Um. Well... I think I should... Wait ☝🏾 Oh my 😲 Anyways I will read now. On a serious note though. Your poem speaks the truth. There's only one thing that impresses us. And you highlighted just that. Lol I won't ask but I get you. It must be written down or else it would block the other ideas. I know this all too well. And that same blockage has happened to me before. 🤗❤️
Lol... Glad you got it out and shared it with us. I like your reasoning too. It would have only continued to distract you if you hadn't written it, haha. Gotta love those. Also, even the toughest of the tough can't hide themselves from that movie.
Oh wow, didn't expect him to die. This is the epitome of "Would you die for me?" Hahahahahahaha this was brilliant. I related a lot to her because I'm not into muscular, gym guys. Loved your poem. Looking forward to reading your story!
💕Jason, you really know how to impress a gal by actions 💕
I love the hell out of this Jason!! Nothing says strength like the willingness to be vulnerable and shed a tear! So well done!!
I can't say I minded the eye candy (hehe), but I would've been unimpressed until the emotions shone through as well :)
Hahaha! Great stuff, Jason, no matter why you wrote it. I cried, too, btw...
Not me singing Shania Twain right now 😁
I love it!
The best impression is a true one. Love this
