In the afternoon bar of a business hotel
Far enough away from home
I met you and I met you too
To see if what we'd heard was true.

I answered your profile with seven words
Like a taste of things to come
We had a bit of message fun
And then we turned the cameras on.

Whereas you found me on your brave first night
Your avatar a garden gnome
So very shy in words alone
So very shy upon the phone.

We talked about you after cameras off
And so decided to become
A couple for convenience
To enter an experience.

A brief introduction opened your shell
You found a female friend welcome
Our faces in a conference call
As inhibitions gently fall.

It was you in your blossoming shyness first
Brought up that word that ends in some
A thing we felt had passed us by
We all secretly longed to try.

In the afternoon bar of a business hotel
Where we have booked a room to roam.

A little wine to loosen cares
Six hands in hands
Let's go upstairs.

.it was just four
hands, that is
but the invasion
was enough to make us
wiggle
writhe
and wonder
why anyone would ever
need more.


but, that was fun, like where your mind goes!
