Love Poem: Cougar

Cougar

You can’t iron something that’s wrinkled
She’s lived ninety years in this skin
She’d popped in her teeth and she’d tinkled
This birthday she ain’t staying in

Her gout and arthritis were giving her grief
But tonight she intended to flirt
Doc Martens and knickers a long way from brief
Fish nets and a very short skirt

She went to a bar full of pushing and shoving
And eyed a young guy in the queue
She winked and she said if you’re after some loving
I’d whip off my bloomers for you
