How Courtship Is

It's a laugh how we dance

We wait wanting to be wanted

Then slip most of the way through

Sometimes I catch you
Sometimes you catch me

But most of the time 
it is me
Catching you

 

Then you hawk me over
With words of how it is
How it should be

 

But you only dance small steps
While I leap over through

 

It's not fair
I whisper

 

You little bitch.
